I loved the side cut out set of the Belafonte ship, the old look of it, especially in contrast to all the brushed steel aboard the rival ship. ("Is that my cappuccino machine?!")

Once again, the wardrobe is perfectly distinct for all the characters. I loved Angelica Houston's elaborate jewelry, and all the baskets of red knit caps lying around for the crew (and Siamese cats crawling all over the ship!).

I've never seen Willem Dafoe as such a hilarious character, either. When he left the room in a huff, then had to glare back at everyone through the porthole window in the door just killed me.

I had to go buy the soundtrack right away. Turns out I prefer my Bowie tunes in acoustic Portugese!

Have y'all printed out your Official Team Zissou ID cards yet?
