[FILM REVIEW] Where the Wild Things Are
10.18.09
WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE
Directed by Spike Jonze
Written by Spike Jones and Dave Eggers
Review by Seth Rogovoy
Built upon Maurice Sendak's 10-sentence children's classic, this feature film combining live action, state-of-the-art puppetry and CGI does a terrific job capturing the spirit and feel of the source material while blowing it out into a modern-day fable of dysfunctional family relationships. That it eschews sentimentality and emotional clarity is to its credit; it gains its strength from its characters' (human and Wild Things) behavioral and emotional flaws -- their utter humanity, really. In that sense, this children's fable is more real than many a Hollywood portrayal of similar material.
