Rating: - Finally!
Finally Bottle Rocket is now on Criterion and Blu-ray simultaneously. The film that introduced Wes Anderson and his clan to the world.The transfer looks absolutely amazing. All the extras are great too, including deleted scenes, and the original short. The best part though is the very relaxed and candid commentary by Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson. The two sit and chat and they are so relaxed with one another you eventually feel you are just sitting there with them watching the film. Several times … Read More
Rating: - The Special Edition Fans Have Been Waiting For
Ever since Wes Anderson has been releasing special editions of his films through the Criterion Collection, fans have been hoping that Bottle Rocket would get deluxe treatment. The wait is finally over.
Disc one starts things off with an audio commentary by director/co-writer Wes Anderson and actor/co-writer Owen Wilson. They touch upon which scenes from the original short film survived into the feature. They also point out the re-shoots done after a disastrous test screening. Anderson … Read More
Rating: - Wes Anderson’s first feature film is my favorite
This review is for the Criterion Collection DVD edition of the film.
Wes Anderson’s first feature film is actually a remake of his first film.

The Criterion edition is long overdue and … Read More
Rating: - Great set–but keep the old disc, too!
The Criterion 2-disc Bottle Rocket is outstanding, but don’t toss your original disc just yet… the new edition is a slightly different edit that loses one laugh and adds another. I couldn’t find any reference to these changes in the supplementary material at all.
MISSING: Originally, during the book store robbery, Anthony grabs a random book off the shelf and opens it, revealing the title page “Job Opportunities in Government - 1995″ which always gave me a little chuckle. Now for some reason … Read More

- Believe it or Not - It Feels Rushed
I saw “Bottle Rocket” at my local indie cinema upon its release twelve years ago and have rewatched it again many times since on DVD. Naturally, I was really looking forward to the Criterion version. Overall impression - disappointing. The commentary provided little insight into the actual making of the movie aside from comments like “Remember when we filmed there?”, “That guy was a friend of ours” and “The movie tested badly” (over and over again). The phone call thing between Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson … Read More
