Synopsis: "Max (Max Records) imagines running away from his mom and sailing to a far-off land where large talking beasts -- Ira, Carol, Douglas, the Bull, Judith and Alexander -- crown him as their king, play rumpus, build forts and discover secret hideaways. Producer Tom Hanks and director Spike Jonze bring Maurice Sendak's whimsical story to life; James Gandolfini, Catherine Keener, Forest Whitaker and Catherine O'Hara lend their talents." "Very good""Always interesting to watch a Jonze movie, nice story, entertaining." by dubed on Sat Nov 13th, 2010 0 Comments | Reply | Report"Excitement movie""I think this is, much quite quality movie ever I've seen in my life, and this is really so much excite, and just like wow. but sad, in the end of a movie, but it is great movie!" by joyo8 on Sat Apr 17th, 2010 0 Comments | Reply | Report"Where the Wild Things Are"""Where the Wild Things Are" is being said by many critics a great film. USA Today writes that it is a, "fiercely innovative film with surprising texture and nuance," and Rolling Stone calls it, "completely real." Well, I'm here to write that, after all of the incredible hype, I strongly disagree with these reviews. Most audiences know that the story is about a little boy named Max who, after being disobedient, is sent to bed. He runs away (or sails) and soon finds a place which is a forest inhabited by ferocious creatures that crown max as their ruler. The premise here, written by Maurice Sendak, is good. But it's what the film produces from that which makes it an entirely different story. We are able to notice that there was artistic talent put into the look and style of the "wild things." The special effects consist of computer generated faces put on life size models and turn out to be breathtakingly crafted. If I would ever meet one of the creatures, I always thought they would look like they did in the movie if it were real life. I have rarely walked out of a movie feeling as depressed as I did walking out of this one. This is not just because the atmosphere was depressing but the long, artsy shots of Max and his pals playing games were so boring that i felt sorry for the production. I understood the dramatic symbols throughout the movie but they still didn't make the movie any better. The film is much darker than it is advertised to be. A kid seriously has mental issues if he decides to destroy the creatures houses, rip off one of the their arms, and bite his mother when she simply punishes him! The acting throughout this thing is terrible too. The cast plays their characters in a way that makes the audience feel more glum than Taylor Swift did when she got her award stolen from her by Kanye. Every actor in "Where the Wild Things Are" say their lines like they're reading a poem. Another reason the movie was depressing and almost frightening was the random howling in the the musical score. It was too bizarre to even slightly work its way into Sendak's atmosphere. When the film does try to be funny and not dramatic the humor falls flat and ends up being embarrassing for the writers. I don't think the book should've been turned into a film at all. Sendak's story would've remained a great children's book if this film hadn't been released. Now, children of future generations may see the film version of the story first and not want to read the classic book because they'll think it's just as bad as the movie. Unless you're in the mood for a dark, depressing, and sad film that will leave you confused, then I strongly suggest that you skip "Where the Wild Things Are." Who knew that one of the most anticipated movies of 2009 could be one of the worst." by willyt on Fri Dec 11th, 2009 0 Comments | Reply | Report"Where the Wild Things Are"""Where the Wild Things Are" is being said by many critics a great film.
