The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou (Widescreen 2 - Disc Collector's Edition) (US Version) DVD Region 1

In Wes Anderson's THE LIFE AQUATIC, a group of oceanic explorers who call themselves Team Zissou embark on a journey to hunt down the "jaguar shark" that ate one of their crew members (Seymour Cassel). Determined to avenge the death of his dear friend, team leader Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) is melancholic about the journey he's about to make. Meanwhile, financial troubles and nostalgia for his past make Zissou behave like a reckless playboy, an aging softie, and a past-his-prime tyrant. Surrounding Zissou are a hodgepodge of eccentrics--a pregnant journalist doing a magazine feature (Cate Blanchett), an airline pilot from Kentucky who claims he is Zissou's son (Owen Wilson), an emotionally needy European (Willem Dafoe), an acoustic guitarist who sings David Bowie songs in Portuguese (Seu Jorge), Zissou's brilliant wife (Anjelica Houston), and her ex-husband who is Zissou's seafaring nemesis (Jeff Goldblum). Clad in baby-blue polyester uniforms, Addidas sneakers, and red stocking caps, Team Zissou is a sight to see. And as their deep-sea adventure takes them into dangerous waters where they are attacked by pirates and dazzled by CGI fish, the group finds magic both in their bonds to each other and in the colorful world around them. In keeping with Anderson's unique brand of escapist humor, these caricatured characters are nothing short of fascinating. While their lives are extraordinary, they act bored, dwelling on banalities like hurt feelings, jealousy, and loneliness. The more absurd their stories are, the more believable their quirky personalities become. With plenty of hilarious moments offsetting the film's tongue-in-cheek sentimentalism, THE LIFE AQUATIC is sure to please seasoned Anderson fans and make new ones of the uninitiated.

"[Mr. Murray's] performance is a triumph of comic minimalism....[He] turns tiny gestures and sly, off-beat line readings into a deadpan tour-de-force, at once utterly ridiculous and curiously touching." - A. O., Scott (New York Times Critic), New York Times, 12/10/2004

"An exquisitely evocative movie that elevates rueful melancholia to a superpower..." - Carina, Chocano (Los Angeles Times Critic), Los Angeles Times, 12/10/2004

"Many of the atmospheric details are marvelous..." - Owen, Gleiberman (Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 12/17/2004

"Anderson holds steady to the delicate emotions that run beneath this stormy comedy of betrayal, death and forgiveness....[Wilson gives] a sincerely affecting performance." - Peter, Travers (Rolling Stone Critic), Rolling Stone, 12/30/2004

"A movie that's a celebration of both the sea and a certain brand of imaginative exuberance..." - Glenn, Kenny (Premiere/Entertainment Weekly Critic), Premiere, 02/01/2005

"THE LIFE AQUATIC is a micschievous and melancholy thing of wonder....It's daring, different and memorable." - Chris, Roberts (Uncut Critic), Uncut, 03/01/2005

Ranked #12 in Uncut's Best Films Of 2005 -- "Wes Anderson here creates a totally bonkers but entirely charming comedy..." - Uncut Staff (Uncut Film Critic), Uncut, 01/01/2006
