How to make an Impression

Rating: 9/10 (26 December 2013)

I was a little apprehensive going to see Walter Mitty. I'd read reviews and didn't expect anything too exciting.
Whilst it may not be the most exciting film, it really did make an impression. Underneath and all skits and jokes, the recurring theme of getting out there and living is constant. First of all, as most people have said, the visuals of this film are breathtaking and the people behind the cameras deserve a lot of credit. The soundtrack is also a big plus, really fitting each scene as it carries on.
I've never been a great fan of comedy actors trying to be a little more serious but Ben Stiller did a great job here, using jokes wisely and appropriately, rather than a constant barrage of laughter.
But the best message I got was that, after seeing this film, I need to be a little more exciting. You will see something in yourself that resembles a piece of Walter Mitty and that's what I liked most about this film. Everyone needs to live a little more, no matter who you are.
If you've read the critics reviews, don't read any more. Go and enjoy a really good film.
