Where The Wild Things Are


This movie is really,really,really weird. This is even weirder than The Imaginarium of Parnassus . I just didn't understand what the movie was saying. Was it trying to be sweet? Was there a moral? Is this movie just a make-of-it-what-you-will kind of movie? I'm competly confused! At first this movie looks like it's supposed to be sweet. Then it starts getting scary,then sweet,and back to scary. And also, I think that all of those movie writers out there are starting to run out of ideas. If you want proof, just look at some movies. First, they make Planet 51, a movie with the same plot as E.T. ( except a human is trying to go home). There are now countless movies that are just remakes of other movies or books on screen with a lot of tweaks here and there ( but the basic storyline is still someone else's idea). Now they are making Mcgruber into a movie! Come on people, show some imagination! Sure everyone likes Mcgruber, but it's a skit for crying out loud! I'm not saying don't make the movie, but don't expect any points for originality. In short, the wild things movie is weird, and imagination is dead amongst movie writers.

The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus




I didn't like the movie. Not one bit. When it wasn't boring it was confusing,and when it wasn't confusing or boring it was like some kind of twisted nightmare. I think perhaps this movie was aimed at an older audience. I don't have much else to say.

My little sister Elie says that " I didn't like the part where the man fell in a puddle and his face changed, I didn't like the part where the giant hand picked up the man and I didn't like the giant tack. I did like that daughter of the old man, the mirror and the old man." My little brother Izzy said "It wasn't as exciting as I thought." He did like "When he walked with the ladder,like stilts. And I liked the end." I didn't like anything.

As far as I know, my Mom has not seen this movie. Thus I do not expect her to post anything.
