I did not like “Where the Wild Things Are.” I didn’t like it one bit. Aside from having a relatively thin plot, the movie left me feeling depressed and that the last two hours of my life were wasted. Every moment of the movie was filled with discomfort and awkwardness.
Will I read this book to my kids? Absolutely.
Will I ever watch this movie again? Not a chance in hell.
What Sarah Said 
I liked it. I thought parts were funny, and it stayed true to the feeling of the book. The kids were fascinated.
