Where The Wild Things Are Movie Review

Jan 7, 2011 - @Flapjack818 Your saying that this movie is a bad adapation (personally I think Jonze captured the themes and tone perfectly), yet your suggesting that it should have had a totally different story? Major fail.

Jan 7, 2011 - @123rockfan Well the book wasn't much of a story in the first place, so they really could've tweaked it up alot. But you are right with my idea being stupid.

Mar 1, 2011 - @NinjaBoomer100 From the many reviews that I read to this movie (yes I know the book is short) people disliked because of 1. its overly dark and frightening 2 it isnt for children to have fun in unlike the book itself was happy.

Apr 12, 2011 - I didnt enjoy this film at all. It was like i kept missing parts the way it skipped scenes. One min there in the jungle, then a desert! I didnt really see a moral either, just my opinion anyway...

Apr 19, 2011 - I found this film disturbing and unpleasant. Definately not a kids film, way too dark i think. Im shure the books amazing though and good effort. Brilliant soundtrack.

Apr 25, 2011 - Me and my two friends went to go see this when i was in sixth grade. We all liked the book but the kid and the wild things were all to anger and depressing. Overall we thought the movie was boring and really dark. People gashped when the guy gut his arm ripped off. Give it a 7

May 5, 2011 - gotta say that the movie was INCREDIBLE, i suggest everyone watches it. And the movie is seen as "disturbing and unpleasant" because it explores ideas that people associate with being "taboo", childhood psychology, yes its a dark movie but the ending was one of the best ive ever seen. i actually got quite emotional, and it was very worth it.

Jun 2, 2011 - Do you think I would like this if I liked Coraline, Nightmare Before Christmas, Series of Unfortunate Events, Spirited Away, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Fractale, and the Never-Ending Story? Does this movie have good character development?

Jun 11, 2011 - sigh.. its really hit or miss it seems..how did i see it? pretty much the feeling of dealing with someone who is either bipolar or going through a breakup and cries on your shoulder for about 2 hours...it was just soo... awkward.. the part where he rips the guys arm off was slightly terrifying.. it was so sudden and dark.. it made me feel like i wasnt watching a child's film anymore.. more like the mind of a depressed mental patient. all in all.. disturbing.. but people like that i guess..

Jun 11, 2011 - Beautiful, daring adaptation. Hadn't read the book prior, but read it after. The movie supports my idea of what a good children's movie should be; exposing in stead of hiding, disarming what is dangerous. Also highly imaginative, I think kids never should be sheltered from the dark, as long as the moral comes through, I think the conflicts in the film are not too complicated for kids to understand. Also, music and visual concept fantastic, it truly captured the boldness of being a young child.

Jul 11, 2011 - Spike jonze is the man, this is why the director went to him, because he can literally make anything high quality and VERY meaningful

optimegatrongodzilla Says:

Sep 27, 2011 - years from now, whenever disney makes a live-action movie adaptation of winnie the pooh, it should be directed by spike jonez and john lassetter! i am 15 and i am hoping to get into the computer animation business in my adulthood, and possibly be a director for such a film!

Nov 19, 2011 - this movie is one of the greatest movies i have even seen. some parts even made me almost cry one thing i didnt like was that they added something that didnt need to add just the original book was just enough
