The Life Aquatic

Saw this movie the other day and thought it was hilarious. No for everybody. On several occasions I was the only person in the theatre laughing out loud. I'm sure I was the only one in the room who got most of the jokes. Very low key movie but really funny.

All star cast does a wonderful job.

If you liked the Royal Tannenbaums you'll probably like this one as well.

I want to join team Zissou - somebody get me a red hat and a speedo.

I enjoyed it. I didnt like it as much an Tennenbaums but I thought it was still good.

I want to see this movie. It looks amusing.I liked Rushmore but thought Royal Tennebaums was not that great.

Merlin and Cantacazene, can you tell me what it was about Royal Tennebaums(sp?) that appealed to you? I may need to watch it again.

Just saw this tonight and I thought it was awesome. Personally I liked it better than the Royal Tennanbaums, but I like Bill Murray a bunch so that's probably why. I might check it out again but if not, I will definitely buy it when it comes out.

I went to go see it but I got sick in the theater. I left 4 times to puke and decided to finally go home about an hour and a half into it. I'm pretty bummed I missed a lot of it and didn't get to finish it. What I saw was great though. Some really funny stuff.
