I've only seen these two of his, but I hated them with a passion. Horribly unfunny wastes of celluloid.

I've seen them all except "Life Aquatic" and disliked them all. (I've seen one version of "Bottle Rocket" -- don't know what the difference is.) I find Wes Anderson's "comedy" totally NOT amusing. Too bad, because I love Owen Wilson.
