Yes, it was 'not that bad' but it was not good either. I seldom give such a luke warm rating, and I expected to like this movie much better, but it just seemed to coast along on the strength of the cast. Without giving them much to work with, beyond a premise with potential, the writing just ran out of steam even before the half way mark. Granted, the visuals were interesting, and I felt like it was influenced by Wes Anderson at times. The choice of music was good but tended to be underused instead of balanced through the run time. This ended up being something for Owen Wilson fans, and even then, it is more for a completist than something that will stand out in his list of films. Too bad, as it could have been one of his best, with just some more time spent on the writing.
