Life Aquatic - 5/10
Count me as one of those who didn't get it. I didn't like it much. I thought it was one of Murray's worst movies. The main actors seemed to think they were in some kind of revolutionary movie, that everthing they did and said was just so sublimely hilarious. Owen Wilson makes my skin crawl, Anjelica Huston slept-walk through the movie, William Dafoe was ok, Murray was dull and boring. It was a great idea to try and spoof the life and times of Jacques Cousteau (I watched his underwater wildlife series as a kid), but it wasn't funny or authentic. Painful to sit through.
