Event: Where the Wild Things Are Warner's Advance Premiere
Attendance: 80%


Max's series of actions at the opening may remind us adults of ourselves childhood - more or less, whether you were a good girl or a rebellious teenager. I believe you have all experienced the loneliness and ignorance of the world in your childhood.

20 minutes later, the movie entered the fantasy world. Our delicate eyes, who are used to watching high-definition animations such as "Monsters, Inc.", may not be able to adapt to the deliberately rough CG in the film for a while. But fortunately, the development of the plot and the conflict of characters will make you temporarily ignore some details of the picture, and the wonderful dubbing has undoubtedly become another highlight of the film.

I have to admit that the film based on children's books is a bit younger in terms of emotional appeal, and the handling of the ending is also a little sloppy and random.

Closing Statement 1: I don't agree with the so-called "this is a childhood story made for adults" in some of the previous interviews, but I agree that this is a well-made children's film.

Concluding Statement 2: If I had a 4-10 year old, I would definitely take him/her to see this movie.
