The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

lifeaquaticFans of Jacques Cousteau are either going to be very amused or very insulted by Wes Andersonā€™s colorful but inconsequential film about a deep-sea explorer (Bill Murray) who mounts an expedition to find the mysterious jaguar shark that killed his best friend. Along for the ride is the explorerā€™s son (Owen Wilson); the absent father is a familiar theme for fans of the director and so is the quirky, somewhat peaceful sense of humor. There are so many wonderful details to observe (the David Bowie covers!) and the cast is very game (especially Murray)ā€¦ but in the end the movie still comes across as overlong and unfocused.Ā 

2004-U.S. 118 min. Color. Widescreen. Directed byĀ Wes Anderson. Screenplay: Wes Anderson, Noah Baumbach. Cast: Bill Murray (Steve Zissou), Owen Wilson (Ned Plimpton), Cate Blanchett (Jane Winslett-Richardson), Anjelica Huston, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum… Michael Gambon, Noah Baumbach.
