The first time I saw this movie I didn't like it. In fact I thought it was really quite boring, and it didn't really speak to me. The one thing is that even though I didn't enjoy the movie, I didn't exactly write it off as a movie I would never watch again. A few of my friends had been big fans of the movie and they convinced me to watch it again, after watching it a few more times I started to see what they saw in some of the humor behind it. While its not my favorite movie in the world, it does have some merit. Bill Murray does a great job, and Jason Schwartzman really starts to grow on you a bit.. the reason I didn't really like it the first time was that he was still a new actor and I don't think that he really came off as being believable. I came to like him more in his later films. The movie does have some things that are good, but its not the type of movie that everyone would rush to see.
