The Grand Budapest Hotel tells of a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars and his friendship with a young employee who becomes his trusted protégé. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting, the battle for an enormous family fortune and the slow and then sudden upheavals that transformed Europe during the first half of the 20th century.
Wes Anderson's 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' is a whimsical yet meticulously crafted homage to early 20th-century European cinema.

The Grand Budapest Hotel, Wes Anderson’ın o kendine özgü simetrik evreninde dolaşmanın en keyifli yollarından biri. Filmin renk paleti, ritmi ve neredeyse mimari bir titizlikle kurulmuş kadrajları, bana hep bir ressamın tuvaline bakıyormuşum hissi veriyor. Anderson’ın dünyasında her sahne, sanki kendi içinde küçük bir tablo gibi; detaylar o kadar bilinçli ki insan gözünü ekrandan alamıyor. Mimar olarak özellikle otelin iç mekân tasvirlerine bayıldım—gerçek mekânla hayal ürünü arasında gidip gelen bir estetik var.
Hikâyenin merkezindeki dostluk, sadakat ve zamana karşı durma hâli ise filmin görsel oyunlarının ötesinde duygusal bir ağırlık taşıyor. Zubrowka’nın masalsı atmosferi üzerinden aslında Avrupa’nın yitirdiği bir zarafeti anlatıyor Anderson. Evrenin o hem hüzünlü hem mizahi tonu, film bittikten sonra bile akıldan çıkmıyor. Bence The Grand Budapest Hotel, hem görsel hem de duygusal olarak insanı tatmin eden, “sanat ile sinemanın tam kesişim noktasında” duran nadir filmlerden biri.
