In the stop-motion tradition of Fantastic Mr. Fox, this takes Anderson's filmmaking a level up with its anthropomorphic deadpan wit. Loved it through and through. T and I both LOLed at several points with its quirky cleverness. Genuinely funny and heartfelt (and there's a bit of a swordfight even). The dogs were loyally rendered and what a cast of voice actors - Murray, Goldblum, Swinton, ScarJo, Yoko Ono even. The cultural appropriation accusations were way off base as this was very observant to both Japanese and dog culture. Major win with the taiko soundtrack. Highly recommended, especially for DOOM dog lovers.
