Where The Wild Things Are
I think the book was turned into a movie pretty well. It conveyed everything
the book had into a movie with realistic characters and realistic places. I out
of opinion didn't like the movie that much, it sure wasn't my favorite and it
was kind of weird at some parts. I laughed sometimes to because the main
character max looks a lot like my friend Matthew and it was just weird thinking
of Matthew being an actor. Anyways the part where Max takes the boat ride to
the mysterious island was in the book and it was portrayed well. The part in
the book where a forest becomes his room and trees pop up in places did not
happen in the movie, it would probably be hard to make that happen but that is
one thing that wasn't portrayed in the movie. Otherwise the others parts were
nicely laid out and the emotions in the movie were definitely more relatable in
the movie. Another part that was conveyed in the movie that was in the book
were the animals he meets they all looked exactly the same just more realistic,
and the way they act like Carol acts friendly in the movie most of the time
like he does in the book. Overall the book was a good kid’s book and little
kids should enjoy it, adults too but mainly kids. The book was successful in
turning into a movie in many ways. There were just a few things that I didn’t like
and that weren’t in the movie that were in the book, but it was pretty good
overall I just wasn’t a big fan, it wasn’t much of a movie I would recommend to
people or my friends to watch. But it did reflect the book very well and that’s
all that matter.

Were the Wild Things are was one of my favorate books as a kid, i looked forward to the movie, but didnt get a chance to see it. I had high hopes and it sounds liked it lived up to its expectations.
