Review: Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life you can imagine, said author Henry David Thoreau, naturalist, expressing sentiments that mourns the replacement escape pure imagination and asks us to find life through direct experience. This is a theme that surrounds the title characters emotions in recent film adaptation of the famous short story by James Thurber The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, and despite his good advice to make sure that it seems to be strangely moved choir driving force dreams cinema. In the most recent remake of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, unfortunately, see the director, producer and star Ben Stiller in pretty poor shape, although admirable decision to branch out creatively keeping messily Steve Conrad inflated script never fully express the true meaning of the planned self openly. The film reeks of desperation apparent attempts to completely separate from the original adaptation Norman Z. McLeod in the use of state of the visual arts and pristine panoramic sweeps of the landscape, but inevitably loses contact with message center, embodying the end too general presentation. It may be too generous even suggest that the influence Stiller knows hes perfectly trying to call, but The Secret Life of Walter Mitty tries to remove the life-giving discovery Akira Kurosawas ikiru of comedic musing John Schlesingers Billy Liar never comes at a depth of one both. Stillers fifth film as director sees him trying to take the conventions of his overbearing low brow comedy of the past and although its impressive visuals are cleverly designed video message is lost in the inflated cliche? These errors naively living for reckless risks. As in most of adapting it clear that this version of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty leaves Thurbers intent of the original stories of dreams beyond the mundane place of contemplation of the subject real life-giving self-discovery that unfortunately falls due to indiscernibility consistent flawless image , blunt metaphors and highlight the apparent inability of man one of our more adventurous sensibility. Is there something to be taken from this rather uninvolving movie that looks amazing dreams feel real to her that Ben Stiller in his admirable attempt to grow as a director gave us a demonstration that it can be imagined that something is much better than seeing it reality.More this review: http://wp.me/py8op-CK Other comments: generationfilm.net |
