Review: The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
If you want weird, this one is definitely for you. The trailer had a slight indication of this, but most people are hoping for fun. And this whole movie is more silliness than fun. This is mostly accomplished by unrelated gags in the background combined with sheer ignorance. Added is a good dose of sketch-like editing, not the best way of storytelling. And if that’s not enough silliness, check out the soundtrack. It almost comes close to getting annoying. If you like Wes Anderson’s previous project (The Royal Tenenbaums), you’ll probably like this too.6½.
