Wes Anderson has always made beautiful cinematic snow globes, immune to external messiness. Minutes into his latest (and perhaps most terminally fussy) confection, it’s clear this isn’t top-shelf Anderson. It might not even be bottom-shelf.

On paper, the premise read like the (very real) sandbox fantasies of a twelve-year-old freshly chancing upon a dusty DVD with the cool, gun-toting muscle-man on the cover: What if the Predator fought a Viking? Or a samurai? Or…
