Scroll back up to the top to confirm that he indeed gave it only 2.5 stars. The opposite outcome of videogame websites which award and 8.5 and then list a thousand complaints. Roeper is far less easy going... <a href="http://cbs2chicago.com/movies/local_story_358180626.html" target="rope">http://cbs2chicago.com/movies/local_story_358180626.html</a> [quote cite="Roeper"]Ever meet someone who's so clever and dryly sarcastic that he makes you feel like you're supposed to be grateful just to be in the room with him? "The Life Aquatic" is the movie version of that guy.[/quote] The real-life version of that guy is probably me, or at least in my mind's version of me, which could be why I like the movie. Also note that Roeper tells you this movie is clever and dryly sarcastic... <i>which is bad somehow</i>. "Skip it!"[/quote]
