Movie

Say what you will about Where the Wild Things Are, but I am going to say I came away from the movie satisfied. I think the film was directed more toward the generation that lifted the book up originally than the generation that is supposedly embracing it currently. That being said, the movie had it's failures, but it also had brilliant, fragile moments that walk the line between sentiment and genuine innocence. Like this:



I have little appreciation for sentiment, and I think the movie's failures, for me, stumbled a bit too far into it. The moments that didn't were wonderful.

James Gandolfini owned.
