Max, a rambunctious and sensitive boy feels misunderstood at home and escapes to where the Wild Things are. He lands on an island where he meets mysterious and strange creatures whose emotions are as wild and unpredictable as their actions. The Wild Things desperately long for a leader to guide them, just as Max longs for a kingdom to rule. When Max is crowned king, he promises to create a place where everyone will be happy. Max soon finds, though, that ruling his kingdom is not so easy and his relationships there prove to be more complicated than he originally thought.
Movies don't often allow unruly children a full palette of emotions.
In Where the Wild things Are, a confusing jumble of feelings course through 9-year-old Max, making for a movie of surprising depth, poignancy and energy. He may rush headlong in his wolf costume, howling and leaping about, but Max is not just a wild child. He is creative, empathic and alienated.
It's a pleasure to see director Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich), in collaboration with screenwriter Dave Eggers (Away We Go), take Max seriously. Purist fans of Maurice Sendak's classic children's book will have to set aside expectations to fully embrace the film version. But they should...
In Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are, less -- 10 sentences, 37 pages, 338 words -- became more: a much-loved children's book that's sold more than 19 million copies worldwide, 10 million in the U.S.
In the new film version of Sendak's classic, more -- admired director Spike Jonze, smart co-screenwriter Dave Eggers, top-flight actors including Chris Cooper, James Gandolfini and Forest Whitaker, and a budget estimated at $80 million to $100 million -- has paradoxically become less: a precious, self-indulgent cinematic fable that not everyone is going to love.
The difficulty starts with how little the filmmakers had to work with. A featu...

I'm not entirely sure who this movie is aimed at. I wouldn't call it a childrens movie to be honest. It's really boring and quite depressing, so do yourself a favor and stay away..
I loved the little guy's acting in this film. I did find myself getting bored, but I believe that is because I was trying to so hard to remember if I actually read the book or not. It was a nice one time watch.
This was an amazing film. Yes, it is dark for a kid's movie but it was still very enjoyable and no the kid isn't a brat. 8/10 you won't regret watching it
I thought this movie should be watched by all parents as well to see what "some" kids go through and experience. It's a heads-up for parents that we need to keep firm "continual" (keyword) guidance if we are to keep our sanity and give these kids a chance at a halfway decent life. Anyway, just my take on this film as well as it being entertainment. Definitely a movie for the bigger kids.
i dont get it i see comments saying "i feel for what the kid is going thur" im sry but huh? that kid is a spoilt little brat and needs a good slap from his mother. but no he [SPOILER]
runs away leaving his mother in her own mental nightmare while hes off with the fairies on his little world. and what does he get when it suits him to return home?? CAKE?!?!
anyway as for the movie itself (as a movie ie acting/graphics/etc) it was nt bad in that sense but Defo nt for kids at all, i liked the creatures in this movie tho they looked great but again i couldnt really enjoy it cos i couldnt stop thinking what a spoilt little twat! while the girl in the cinema sat next to me was saying aww i feel sry for the kid !! so 7/10 for the appearance of the monsters etc but 2/10 cos i couldnt really enjoy it. sry x
