One of the most genuinely beautiful, heartwarming, exhilarating films I've seen in a really long time.
The film is a detailed take on what it is to be a child, a reflection on the consequences of our actions, of the parts of ourselves.
With each of the Wild Things reflecting an aspect of Max's personality, the group of varied characters must learn to grow, and realize their own flaws to seek the happiness that they believe Max can give them, while Max himself has to grow by seeing these flawed parts of himself.
The beautiful cinematography and stunning level of detail really is something to behold, and Spike Jonez has realized a set of brilliantly real characters.
A truly amazing soundtrack written by Karen O (of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's), and Carter Burwell set a brilliant pace to the film with a mix of orchestral scores and blazing indie rock, that somehow blend together a lot better than they actually should.
Be warned though, you'll be pulling out tissues at the end (Rocky cried, and I've got to admit, I was pretty close.)
The voice acting is exceptional, especially James Gandolfini (Sopranos), but the real breakthrough here is by Max Records.
For someone so young, the emotional range he shows here is something really spectacular.

If you only see one film this year, this should be it.

Correct me if I'm wrong about the one I'm talking about.) I love the flight simulators there, but they're always crowded, most of them are always broken (Windows XP can't do EVERYTHING y'know), and most of all, Google Earth's flight simulator is so much better. I'm on it right now! Take that, $2 admission!

EDIT: Sorry about getting off-topic.

It's a really nice break from the slew of garbage we've had at cinemas over recent months.



It had a nice set up, but it was a pretty poorly executed film.
Just felt really cobbled together :\
