Has anyone seen Where the Wild Things Are? It got really good reviews but now I've been reading that a lot of people seem disappointed in it (
story:cnn). I understand that Spike Jonze intended it (w/Sendak's approval) to be more of a story about being a kid than a story
for kids-- I wonder if people not knowing/understanding this is a reason for their dissatisfaction (expectations not meeting up with reality).
Of course there were also people interviewed like the guy who was upset because his 20 month old lost interest and his 4 year old got distracted and didn't get it. DUH, dude. A 20 month old and a 4 year old are not likely to sit still for the entirety of
any movie.
If you saw it,what did you think? Is it good or do these people have a point?
