The USP of Wes Anderson’s films is to turn even the most tried-and-tested indie narrative tropes into a borderline-absurdist adventure. “Isle of Dogs” feels right at home with the rest of his work.

Although this story may seem innocent, it hides a clear metaphor about the oppression of minorities by dictatorial orders, and the segregation, since a clear parallel can be drawn between the "Garbage Island" ” and a concentration camp or a slum.

Isle of Dogs once again illustrated Wes Anderson’s versatility as a director and was a bold move away from the trappings of The Grand Budapest Hotel which had earned such acclaim.

The huge and talented cast offer up superb voice work, and they all meld seamlessly into Anderson’s handsomely idiosyncratic world.

It's perhaps too easy for the viewer to become lost in Anderson's creativity, as opposed to becoming lost in the emotional power of the storytelling, and so Isle of Dogs feels less engaging than his previous output.
