    I wonder if it remembers me?

    I feel like a lot people don't like this films because it's the loosest and most vulnerable Wes Anderson film.

    Unlike the compact and fast pace we are used to with Anderson, Life Aquatic breathes. It's sloppy in the best way.

    Is it his best film? I don't think so. Is it my favorite Wes Anderson film? Most definitely.

    It's crazy that an action film in the early 90's hides an anti-capitalist and slightly(maybe not so slightly) homoerotic story.

    Johnny and Bodhi live on opposite sides of their own world view. An all-american quarterback turned FBI agent and spiritual, adrenaline seeking bank thief find the same feeling when they are out on the water.

    One of the best climaxes I have ever seen in a film. Raw unfiltered emotion. Then it just ends.

    What a ride!
