cuz he's got a pretty distinctive style. (I never heard of it before just now)

the film has at least two of his "regulars". one is a ghostbuster. and there's lots of yellow.
in case anyone is a fan... (of the director, or of the ever-present regulars Bill Murray and/or Jason Schwartzman)
"Wes Anderson?s movies are immersive experiences (literally in the case of 2004?s The Life Aquatic), and this one is best enjoyed by taking your foot off the mental brakes and letting the film dolly-shot you where it will." http://arts.nationalpost.com/2012/05/31/review-take-a-long-hard-look-at-moonrise-kingdom/
When Life Aquatic first came out I didn't quite like it, not compared to say other films Wes is known for (RUSHMORE!).
Life Aquatic is now one of my favourite films EVER, there are a lot of elements that come together to make it happen for me but it's my go to movie when I'm looking for a particular mood I can't explain...
Nostalgia I guess?
