I enjoyed it. I took my 6yr old daughter and my teenage sister they both enjoyed it. The humor felt more grown up and I didn't care for the kids behavior. The morals of the story also seemed to be more towards older children. We also read the book before we saw the movie so she could follow the movie better. I think we really like the wild things costumes. They were so detailed and great to see. So go and form your own opinion. It wasn't horrible. :)
