Ben Stiller and Kristen Wiig In Rare Dramatic Roles!

Rating: 9/10 (28 December 2013)

A rare dramatic role for both comic actor and actress, Ben Stiller and Kristen Wiig. As Still also produces and directs as mild manner photo editor Walter Mitty who is about to lose his job at Life Magazine. Due to the fact of going digital.
Lead by his jerk of a boss Adam Scott, whom hopefully I will see in nice guy roles one day. As he does look like an actor that could do that.
Still Walter is a day dreamer who instead of dreaming, he gets to live out his reality as he is trying to find a famous but elusive photographer, played by Sean Penn, in trying to get out his work for the finale issue of Life.
As he tries to find Penn and travels around the world. Instead of living in the mundane world while hoping to seek out single mother Wiig, and her skateboarding loving son, Richie.
Still he uses a journal to show where his late father gave to him by his mother, played by Shirley McClaine and set out and travel. Seeing the real world and not just live it out, in his imagination.
Both lead actors did a great job. In rare supporting roles despite one instance with Kristen in a dream sequence. But still really a rare departure for these two. But turned out to be really good.
