I was very fond of Fantastic Mr. Fox, Wes Anderson's first stop-motion animated faire. Isle of Dogs less so. It's most certainly not a bad movie, but my expectations were pretty midling and, personally, they were not met.

Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole.
