Not only is that a shitty movie, not only is Wes Anderson full of shit, I didn't even know it was supposed to be a comedy. The only good thing was Seu Jorge singing Bowie songs.
It's almost as bad as that other shitty Bill Murray movie that everybody seems to think is funny, endearing, and DEEP.

Yikes Mr. C! I'm detecting a 'no love whatsoever for Wes Anderson, or any of his doings' vibe from you there.
Can I assume the other Bill Murray movie (or BM movie to pander to your dislike ) you refer to is Lost in Translation?
How do you feel about Groundhog Day? That's another film that never fails to give me the warm fuzzies, no matter how many times I've seen - and I'd say 5 or 6 times by now..
Q: 'How do you start free improvising?'
A: 'Well I usually start on D as a matter of fact'
"I wandered alone in the desert and cried "Oh Lord! Oh Lord! What hast thou done, lately?"
"Thought is not a saffron-robed monk pissing in the snow"
"Bitterness slowly crept into the marriage and by the time Lovborg was six years old his parents exchanged gunfire daily"

I like Wes Anderson, but that movie didn't work for me.
Perhaps my favorite Bill Murray movie - or at least the funniest - is the underrated Quick Change.
Stop toying with me, Mikey. I'm still waiting for Sergio's response. I've always been a big Bill Murray fan. He always makes me laugh even when he goes the sophomoric route, which is most of the time. So, what about Bob?

Oh, sorry. Love it, great movie. Murray and Dreyfuss play off each other really well. Objectively, I'd say that it and Groundhog Day are better films than Quick Change, but Quick Change is just so damn funny.

I like that movie too Jimmy.
The reason I came back with "What about Bob?" is that I think that was one of the lines they used a couple of times in the movie (aside from the title, naturally).
"Police Squad", with Leslie Neilson as the hapless detective.
This, IMO, was much much better and funnier than "The Naked Gun" films that followed it.
Amen to that Patricia! Remember the shoe shine guy he used to go to for tips? One time the guy who goes up after is a priest, and the shoe shine guy starts giving him the low down on God'n'the afterlife and whatnot.
Also, contains - for my money - one of the *funniest lines ever*!
"I just found this note sir! It was tied to a window and thrown into the rockery.'
