Full Plot Details

A young boy named Max has an active imagination, and he will throw fits if others don't go along with what he wants. Max - following an incident with Claire (his sister) and her friends, and following a tantrum which he throws as a result of his Mother paying more attention to her boyfriend than to him - runs away from home. Wearing his wolf costume at the time, Max not only runs away physically, but runs toward a world in his imagination. This world, an ocean away, is inhabited by large wild beasts, including one named Carol who is much like Max himself in temperament. Instead of eating Max like they normally would with creatures of his type, the wild things befriend Max after he proclaims himself a king who can magically solve all their problems.

Movie Reviews

Total Film - 10/10 by Rosie FletcherA poignant dissection of youth with nine-foot furry monsters, gorgeous production design, frenetic camerawork and a playful, wistful score from Karen O. Never mind the little ones. This beauty will have most grown-ups blubbing.
Gazette (MD) - 10/10 by Jeffrey LylesA perfect example of movie making at its best and is a crowd-pleasing adaptation that captures everything that initially made its source material so revered.
Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA haunting, innovative, and poignant film about childhood that may have you howling with the Wild Things inside and around you.
Brand X - 10/10 by Andy KleinThanks to both the added story elements and the visual choices, there is barely a drop of "magical" to be found; it's neither wondrous nor scary.
Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Michael PhillipsNot since Robert Altman took on “Popeye” a generation ago, and lost, has a major director addressed such a well-loved, all-ages title. This time everything works, from tip to tail.
L.A. Weekly - 10/10 by Scott FoundasWhat he’s (Jonze) ended up with strikes me as one of the most empathic and psychologically acute of all movies about childhood -- a "Wizard of Oz" for the dysfunctional-family era.
Entertainment Weekly - 10/10 by Lisa SchwarzbaumThis is one of the year's best. To paraphrase the Wild Thing named KW, I could eat it up, I love it so.
JoBlo's Movie Emporium - 10/10 by JimmyOWHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE is brilliant... it is an absolute classic.
Scene-Stealers.com - 10/10 by Eric MelinAnybody that says this isn't a kids' film is misunderstanding the point. This movie gets at the heart of what it's like to be a kid...one of the best films of the year.
Las Vegas CityLife - 10/10 by Matt KelemenIt's almost as if they were afraid to redefine the book, and left things as free-floating and ambiguous as possible. ... it's all meandering, abstract non-story that isn't helped by the muddy color palette
