Overview

Three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other -- to become brothers again like they used to be. Their "spiritual quest", however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray).

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

Three estranged brothers chase spiritual healing aboard a moving train across India, but their grand intentions dissolve into fumbling mishaps and quiet moments of genuine connection. It's a film about mending fractured bonds that embraces both the comedy and sadness of how we actually try to fix things.

I don't know why but i always miss something in anderson's movies,there good no doubt but it feels like there are pieces of the puzzle missing that would make them masterpieces.
The only movie without that problem is fantastic mr.fox for some reason.
