Best Wes Anderson Movies

The Top Ten
1 The Grand Budapest Hotel

This film boasts a zany and incredibly fun storyline, fantastic visuals and an absolutely amazing cast of characters. This is Ralph Fiennes's best performance so far, in my opinion. Plainly put, this movie is just spectacular!

Moonrise Kingdom is not the best. It definitely is more than enough to entertain you, but most of the movies on this list are better. Grand Budapest has best cinematography, acting, scenery, plot, and most of all script.

It's his newest feature and in my opinion his best so far!

2 Moonrise Kingdom

Interchangeable with GBH for me. I love how quirky the story is, the rewatchability, strong child performances, and the tragedy of the two protagonists.

An absolutely hilarious and interesting character study of wanting to be more impulsive and rebellious. A quirky treat for any Wes Anderson fan.

Not the usual Hollywood spin stuff. That's what makes it so enjoyable. Great film!

Favourite and most beautifully filmed rom-com by Wes Anderson of all time.

3 Fantastic Mr. Fox
4 Rushmore

Max Fischer was a brilliantly conceived character. Directing, acting and soundtrack were dead-on and Bill Murray turns in his best performance to-date. This was Anderson at his best before he began to parody himself.

Rushmore may not have the camera symmetry and complete quirkness that other Anderson's movies would have in the future, but this is his most interesting story and Bill Murray's best role ever.

Amazing movie. I love Schwartzman and Murray. Soundtrack is genius. This is hard between this and Moonrise Kingdom, nut oh well!

5 The Royal Tenenbaums

The film is one of his most daring and clever films. The story is exciting and the characters who inhabit it are all interesting and three-dimensional. Anderson's style works perfectly with the story.

6 The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

One of my favorite films of all time. Quirky, clever, filled with fascinating characters and beautiful imagery... I love it to death. Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, and Willem Dafoe steal the screen whenever present, but every single actor in this star-studded cast puts forth an amazing performance regardless of their character's importance.

7 The Darjeeling Limited

Brilliantly made and outrageously clever at times. The mini-arcs throughout the movie really add a unique sort of feel to the entire film.

8 Isle of Dogs

This Should be on the list this is one of my favourite movies.

9 Bottle Rocket
10 The Squid and the Whale
The Contenders
11 The French Dispatch
12 Asteroid City
13 Hotel Chevalier
14 Sing
