Editor’s Note: The Phoenician Scheme (2025) effectively embraces its Comedy, Adventure, and Crime elements without feeling clichéd. Wes Anderson skillfully crafts a focused narrative that prioritizes character development over superficial moments. The performances by Benicio del Toro, Mia Threapleton, and Michael Cera are refreshingly grounded. With a runtime of 1 hour and 42 minutes, the film maintains a measured tempo, ensuring it never drags on too long. While not flawless, its merits clearly outweigh any minor imperfections. Its tagline—“If something obstructs your path: remove it.”—accurately reflects the film’s spirit. If this premise resonates with you, consider adding it to your watchlist.
