Where the Wild Things Are

It's the release that everyone's been waiting for with baited breath. The Spike Jonze interpretation of the classic children's book of the same name finally hits our screens.

Max is a boy with stubborn tendencies and a rapacious imagination. When his feelings are misunderstood he retreats to his bedroom and conjures up a world of insane creatures in a faraway land. He wants to be king but with power comes responsibility, and Max learns some important childhood lessons.

Jonze treats his intended audience with a cool maturity and the special effects alone are worth the ticket price.
