The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004)

An oceanographic crew loses one of its members, eaten by a shark. They set up a new expedition to hunt said shark. A new member is added: the leader's possible biological son.

I just do not dig this filmmaker anymore. He started to lose me in the film before this one, and lost me completely in the film after this one. I guess he must please lovers of style for style's sake. His sense of humor in this film is sophomoric, and I guess if he entered a time machine into the sixties he would succeed in getting a TV sitcom spin-off greenlighted.
