where the wild things are
Kris and I went to, what we agreed on as, our first trip to the cinemas as a married couple last night. What did we see? Nothing other than Where The Wild Things Are.
Being such a popular children’s book, this one caught my attention and immediately appealed to me when I saw the first preview of it some time ago. The visual imagery was quite inspiring. I couldn’t wait to see how they continued to use it throughout the film and to see just exactly what the film was about.
A world created from the child’s imagination. A place he traveled to in order to look at himself and the others in his life. Everything, almost, made sense to him in this world and allowed him to understand what was going on in the real world.
We were pleasantly surprised at this movie and really enjoyed the experience. It is what a movie should be: wholesome, inspiring, encourages imagination, and was very creative.
We give it 2 thumbs up.
