So had anyone seen this? I'm hearing good things from reviewers. Its freezing cold and raining here in NYC and I am thinking about taking my daughter to it...those pre-noon shows are $6 vs. the usual $12 tickets up here.
Definitely not for the little ones, they just won't understand it.This movie is for adults who want to go back to their childhood with that nostalgic feeling again...
That's what I've heard. My mother-in-law took my niece (3 yr old) and nephew (8 yr old). My niece was scared, My nephew enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to going, hopefully this week...
Just buy your kid a DVD of some Disney animation and let them watch it 3 times a day for the next 4 years.
That movie looks scary....it could easily be a horror movie. M. Knight Shamlyan type of movie. One of the monsters should bite off the kids head during the opening credits.
I agree, this movie looks frightening. I am guessing it could give paranormal activity a run for its money in the nightmare department.
Perhaps the greatest little boy film since ET. This is an art film first and a kids film second. Not sappy or hollywood like other films of its kind. It's the anti-Pixar without being dark. Very much like the kids movies I remeber from my childhood. The Dark Crystal, Labrynth, Time Bandits, etc... Brilliant! I say it's better suited for kids (little boys in paticular) between the ages of 7 -12. Made me wanna call my mommy afterwards.
My daughter actually liked it, and was only a little bit scared when all the Wild Things were initially going to eat Max. I thought it was pretty cool, especially since I loved that book as a little boy. I liked Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs better.
I don't understand how you can make a mother effin' movie out of a 48-page book. I am not hatin'... I'm just... in awe of Hollywood ingenuity... what's next, making movies out of CDs? Either way, my daughters and wife love this book and want to see this movie... I think it's going to be boring... but... I will see it either way.
Those wild things in the trailers look a lot like the Gorgs from Fraggle Rock. I'm sure somebody already mentioned that though.
Okay: Cat In The Hat - 61 pp. > 48 Horton Hears a Who - 65 pp. > 48 How the Grinch Stole Christmas - 64 pp. > 48
There is no way Where the Wild Things Are has that many pages. NPR's reviewer ripped this movie a new one. He seemed sad to do it. It's taken the wind out of my sails a bit, but I guess I still kinda want to see it. Not that I'm at liberty to go to the movies anyway.
