Making a fantasy movie about a 9-year-old learning to understand his emotions and empathize with others seems like an almost impossible task, and Jonze pulled it off in a way I could have never imagined.
The idea of high-quality entertainment that is specifically directed at children seems to be an oxymoron in the critical community. However, Where the Wild Things Are, is very much a high-quality children's movie.
The centerpiece of the retrospective will be two special programs: Jonze will appear with author Maurice Sendak, and there will be an evening of skate videos where No Age will perform.
Spike Jonze does a great job of evoking the weird and making it normal, but he's never quite pulled off believable emotion. Ultimately, that's what sinks Where the Wild Things Are.
Where the Wild Things Are sounds like a fun film for the kids and an emotional one for adults, but it isn't. The film is much too scary for younger children and much too boring for older ones.
