Review: WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

Some people will argue this is the best film thus far of 2009. I am almost inclined to agree.

Spike Jonze did an absolutely superb job on this one folks, and I really mean that. Where the Wild Things Are captures all the spirit of its childrens book counterpart without any of the cheesiness you would expect, and a surprising amount of drama. Who knew that Hollywood still has the ability to produce raw emotion?

Trailer: Where The Wild Things Are!

So this morning the trailer for Spike Jonzes Where The Wild Things Are was premiered on the Ellen show and shortly after hit the internet.

The use of the band Arcade Fire for the trailer makes it seem even more magical. This film looks amazing. Hopefully the trailer isn't the best thing, but it definitely got me a lot more excited than I was when I first heard of this movie being made. The monsters look real and that's the most important hurdle that they had to get over. The trailer is below please watch it for yourself and comment with what you think!

Where The Wild Things Are is set to release on October 16, 2009.
