The Adult's Where the Wild Things Are

This is DEFINITELY NOT a kid's movies.
It's an amazing psychological profile into Max. All the monsters are some aspect of Max: Judith- his low self esteem, Carol- his uncontrolled rage.

As a teacher and a mother, it's a great insight into children and their complexity. It offers an explanation for misbehavior at it's root; internal chaos and hurt.
But aside from all the psychoanalysis. The movie is simply a great flick for adults. It's very dark and the characters are well developed. As I said in the title, it's the adult's version of the book. It's everything you read into the book and everything with which you've identified in yourself when you read it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
