With a plan to exact revenge on a mythical shark that killed his partner, Oceanographer Steve Zissou rallies a crew that includes his estranged wife, a journalist, and a man who may or may not be his son.
"Some say this is one of the best movies by Wes Anderson, and for others it's the worst. Regardless of the verdict, 'The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou' stands out for the director's particular aesthetic, which in the underwater context lends itself to visually striking eccentricities. Black humor and irony are also present in Bill Murray's performance, and in Anderson's script written in his first collaboration with Noah Baumbach."
