Synopsis:
In 'The Darjeeling Limited', 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), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins.

Review:
I guess I'll start with the plot. By reading the overview of the movie I thought it would be pretty funny with its endearing moments. This movie hardly made any sense at all and just left me more flabbergasted the more it played. I can tell you I laughed once, even though this was made to be a comedy. I didn't find one character the least bit enjoyable. They all got on my nerves with their mannerisms and foolishness. I'm very disappointed in the acting that went to waste in this film. Both Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody were casted and were not able to bring this movie to life. I really don't suggest watching this movie unless it's on TV and there's absolutely nothing else to watch.

Critics Rating: 6.5/10
My Rating: 2/10

I definately agree. I couldn't find interest in watching this movie. It was just blank. I'd actually give it a harsh 1/10.
