Life Aquatic Finally Dammit!!!

Now Ive seen the movie that so many of my friends have heard me nag about.

Saw it finally with Giovanna together with a medium sized popcorn, coke, and two bags of Gott o Blandat Candy. The only feedback was from Giovanna off course - but the candy bags did emit some noise regardless of the movie.
Ok, what did i think? Lets start with Giovanna instead. She glanced at me like 100 times with this clueless expression on her face and hand gestures that translated into - this movie is weird I dont get it???
For myself: I appreciated the weirdness which translated into humor and a ''feel good' moment. I guess I would use the following metaphor - like looking through a kaleidoscope while being high on something.
The movie is good, but I would argue there are many things that could be improved. For those of you who have seen Napoleon Dynamite or Ghost World this movie will strike a similar cord. But I would argue that I prefer Napoleon Dynamite - its closer to the genuine feeling without the extra props and visual effects.

I admit that I will most definetly watch Life Aquatic more times, and probably will learn to like it more. Theres no arguing about the music being very cool. (e.g., see the image above, with the Zissou radio equipment, very cool =)

Post your comments on Life Aquatic, but please - dont hint or decribe any ending scenes since many of my friends have still not seen this cool movie (like Don Pascolico for example, hehe got you).
