Overall Call:
Owen Wilson and Wes Anderson have written a brilliantly eccentric and dark humored script. The acting and direction enable the script to reach its full potential. The humor may not be for everyone, but I don't see how? As the story description states, three dim young men embark on an unspecified caper to fortune. Not much else need be said rent it, if you like it see the duo's next film Rushmore.

Reasons For Recommendation:
+ Great eccentric dark humor
+ Funny deadpan idiot acting
