Beautiful Film; Jonze outdoes himself.

I left this movie not knowing how to feel about it. But I woke up the next morning realizing why I had actually really enjoyed this film: it takes Maurice Sendak's childhood 10-pager and fabricates a lesson in childhood morals. The fact that this film is really a story told through the imagination and eyes of a 6yr old is simply brilliant (something a viewer may want to have in mind before seeing the film)! The visuals were stunning and the writing was on-point with some of the things I remember in myself as a kid. The whole film is a work in symbolism and metaphors and I would like to see it again to fully grasp them all. I loved this film, but I admit that it took some reflection.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
