Rated The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou 6/10
This film marks the first time that Wes Anderson's tried-and-true "flawed man tries to make good" formula starts to falter. Despite the usually wonderful Bill Murray, I think that Zissou is just not as engaging a character as Royal Tenenbaum or Max Fischer, and he just fails to keep you on his side. Because of that, it's a little harder to accept his eventual redemption arc, as it doesn't really feel like he's earned it. Cate Blanchett, tho.
