1) The soundtrack is perfect for this film. You will need to download it post-show
2) The film allows for quiet simple moments. The pace can be slow, but it allows you to immerse yourself into the film.
3) The wild things are real. It's not some crummy animation, they're solid breathing emotive creatures.
4) This is a story told from a child's perspective. From the dialogue to the parallells from reality to fantasy. Many critics have harped on the simple plot, they forgot that this is Max's story.
5) Catherine Keener is in it. A small role, but everything she does is grand.
Simple short post to get you to go out and enjoy a movie. I haven't almost cried in a film in either forever or a long time and I got pretty close a few times in this one.
Let me know your post film thoughts,
J
