Where The Wild Things Are

I haven't seen it yet either, but then I'm not expecting to see it. However, if I did see it, I think it'd be lucky to get 1/5 from me. It looks like those awful 80's kids films that I hated.



Well, I don't know how everybody feels about Roger Ebert, but he gave this film 3/4 stars.



Bright light. Bright light. Uh oh.
As I said in Sexy's review thread, I give it
, but I'm not ready to discuss it. I enjoyed the direction and the awesome "wild" locations and sets. The kid was just about perfect, and I was surprised to hear so many songs with Karen O (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) singing and not screaming with no electric guitars within earshot. However, I was disappointed that I never heard or saw the Wild Things gnash their terrible teeth. Brenda cried at the ending, and even though I didn't, it was poignant. I've read this book to hundreds of little kids sitting on the floor in front of me, and they always laugh and scream. It's a wonderful participatory book, at least if you can roar your terrible roar and gnash your terrible teeth the way I can.

Aww, mark, how cute. I'm imagining you gnashing your terrible teeth, lol.

My roommate just took her 5 year old niece. They loved it and my roommate said she got a bit choked up at the end. This is someone who doesn't seem to like many movies, to be honest.

I must have read that book to both my sons a thousand times.



Yet you were the only one to give me negative rep for it!
Well maybe I didn't think you should have given it what you did. The movie wasn't that bad to give it such a harsh review. You are practically the only person who probably hated the movie

I haven't seen the film, but Karen O is sexy. Of course in an interview I saw with her she appeared like a complete ditz. But I like her music.

So now people have to limit their criticism of things they don't like? Does this work in reverse? If someone gives a film 5/5 and declares it they favourite film of all time, will they get neg repped too?

I'm trying to put together a top 100 of my favourite films for this place, but, considering the films on it, I think I could get neg repped to the ninth circle if this is the new law of the land.



I think the big question here is:

WILL YOUR FIVE-YEAR-OLD LIKE IT?

and nothing else matters.

I hope it does really well so that the Jim Henson Company can go on to make other pictures.
MUPPETS! (rule)
