"A caper made with all the intricacy of a Rube Goldberg machine, 'The Phoenician Scheme' doesn't deviate from Wes Anderson's increasingly ornate style but delivers the formula with mannered delicacy." (Rotten Tomatoes)

"Each set is carefully assembled, with the blocking of each shot perfectly aligned, and Anderson’s rat-a-tat dialogue is delivered exactly as written. Still, there’s a spontaneity to the storytelling and the world it’s moving through." (The Atlantic)

"... A palate cleanser – a lovely lark, a spirits lifter." (Austin Chronicle)

"The result is more digestible, though also less moving, than Anderson’s recent Asteroid City, but it does have a stealth emotional weapon in Threapleton’s Liesl, who exudes the intelligence and self-possession of a young Anna Karina." (The New Yorker)
