max is a tearaway,andwhen he goes to far with his mother, runs away,and reasons unknown, sails to a island, where he befriends these creatures, who make him king, he fits right in here,as these are basically parentless kids, smashing things up and having fun, but needing a leader...( read more)
Membingungkan, namun untuk menghilang sifat angry itu harus dengan kesabaran. jangan pernah melakukan hal yang diluar batas.
This motion Picture is absolutely amazing!! Can we call it "Wizard of Oz" of this era? yes we do! Jonze made a work of art for all ages.
This is a dream, this is a movie lover's dream.
Je connais très peu le bouquin, même si certains personages me sont familier j'aurais été incapable dire de quoi ça parle. Donc c'est vraiment sans a priori que j'ai regardé l'adaptation ciné et franchement ça le fait. Les créatures font tellement vraies qu'on se dit que les effe...( read more)
Not a cutsie pixar film.
Pretty faithful to the book as far as I can remember.
Kinda a sad story that deals with all childhood (and adulthood?!) insecurities, emotions and worries and how that can make us do crazy things. In the end I guess it's about friendship and why people...( read more)
A sensational film, warm, charming, funny and sad. The best kids film for adults possibly ever! Perfectly help together by Max Records as the young lead.
The film requires some imagination and leaves it open to the viewers own interpretation never delving too far into the mean...( read more)
A great film but the substance and the interpretation by Spike Jonze is something very young children, who are discovering this book now, won't get it at all.
Je crois que je suis passé à côté du film. En fait, j'espérais un beau film sur l'enfance, qui soulèverait tous les grands thèmes essentiels (la difficulté d'être un enfant dans un monde d'adulte, la solitude, la rébellion, le passage à l'âge adulte, etc.), et qui me soulèverait ...( read more)
Where The Wild Things Are
Expected: 11 December
It?s been a loooong time coming, but Spike Jonze seems to think he?s finally cracked his adaptation of Maurice Sendak?s beloved kid book. A boy named Max enters a world of monsters who end up crowning him their king. It?s probably n...( read more)
with spike jonze you can always expect something different,this movie was also very special it treated the child in you and still manage to nurture adult in me.
soundtrack was awesome and Max Records is someoneto be watched for!!
I think its more of an adult movie than a children's movie. It touches on deeper things such as the little boy's behavior and his imaginative world where the wild things are. Its a great movie with a touching story.
Amazing. Really beautiful. This is one of those books they said could never be made into a movie, especially since there's only about 300 words in the book. But Spike Jonze really outdid himself, and this is wonderful. A stunning spectacle, as well as some endearing characters an...( read more)
Amazing Looking And Great Adaptation Of The Book. Jonze Brings His Unique Style While Still Keeping It Very Much In The Vein Of Sendak's Book. Max Records Is Perfect As Max And Couldn't Have Been Played Better. Keener Is Terrific As Always In A Small Role. Voice Cast Is Great As ...( read more)
WHAT AN ANNOYING AND STUPID LITTLE KID! couldn't watch through it, just got through 15 minutes. seriously, mother should've slapped the shit out of this little idiot.
A good film, looks gorgeous and has a cute soundtrack. It had more of a plot than I expected, but a couple of extra scenes were needed to resolve everything. This is one of those films that says a lot without needing dialogue.
I remember reading the book Where The Wild Things Are as a child but I'm afraid the movie based on the book is plain boring. It looks impressive enough especially the creature designs and the sets but I just could not get into it at all. The soundtrack is one of the worst I've he...( read more)
I was a huge fan of the books as a young child but after watching this film I had no choice but to feel that it was a total let down, I was expecting so much more. It was visually stunning, the characters were somewhat true to the books and that's why I gave this 3 stars, everyth...( read more)
Excellent cinematography and beautifully scored. Unfortunately it is difficult to see past the absence of plot. I was disappointed.
Thought it was pretty amazing even if all my other friends didnt like it. Story was pretty simple and didnt have much to it but the characters and the extremley good acting of the little kid max makes it a great movie. The monsters look great love how it wasnt CGI and they seemed...( read more)
A strange one this. On one hand it's a wonderfully made film, beautifully shot and scored, but on the other hand it's far too long and not much happens. I wouldn't call this a kid's film, as kids will be scared by the creatures, but then there's not really much going on for adult...( read more)
I don't know how a 7-lined childrens book could turn into a full length movie. It's just wonderful though. The costumes are fantastic and the feel of the movie is strong. I couldn't believe how dark some of the messages were though, certainly not for kids. Jonze does another fant...( read more)
Not probably something that a lot of people were expecting from this, supposedly kids movie, but don't let that turn you away. The film is mature, and that has such depth. These aren't just simple furry creatures; they are treated like humans, these creatures are complex and fill...( read more)
A brilliant indie film, however people need to know this isn't a kids film. This film is for adults who like to look back at their own childhood and remind yourself how brilliant it was to be a kid.
This is based on a book, and I've heard it's very short. The movie however is actually quite long. The book is about a young boy named Max who has wonderfully imaginative rebellion about being sent to bed without any supper. I haven't read the book, but I know that it is very pop...( read more)
An audacious, ambitious tale about the complexities and instability of the emotions of children. Like the Wild Things, Max's emotions and the facets of his personality are playing, fighting, and arguing.
Even beyond the depth offered there, you are treated to some of the most vi...( read more)
Really loved this movie, Thought it was a really good take on the book and added layers to it (which needed to happen).
Really had as charm to it and made me think back to my childhood, The Wild Things are amazing, they really saeem to live and breath which was needed as if they...( read more)
As I sat there from the beginning I just had a smile on my face. The score, Spike Jonze's style, the acting, the Indie feel...it is a blend that works. I wasn't going in to judge how well he adapted a 15 page children's book, its a friggin' Jonze film, its not Harry Potter. Howe...( read more)
I was very disappointed by the movie indeed. For several reasons. I did not feel at any time in the movie that it was really going somewhere. no character motivations, except beign obnoxious and "wild", that is, random. Not plot lines, twists, red herings, or anything of that sor...( read more)
Spike Jonze reinvents the tale as a rumination on primal anxieties. Brilliantly done on all levels- but why go so glum? Having said that, this is no mere cynical "reimagining" or "gritty update"; the sadness which pervades this film seems to come from an honest place of hard truths.
For a childrens film I actually found this quite entertaing.
The CGI effects and characters were good and you could really see the actual actors coming through.
Been obsessed with the trailer to this movie for months so it had a lot to live up to.
I think I'm one of the few children that never read this book, I certainly remmeber it being around, but for some reason never had it and never read it, so not really sure why I was so excit...( read more)
This will surely create many conflicting opinions. It is not a movie for children at all, which is strange as it is based on a hugely popular childrens book. My friend hated it, and a few cinema goers left before the end. I adored the visuals but found it a little too depressing ...( read more)
