I wrote this while waiting for the bus after the screening, so its kinda rough. Hope you enjoy!

Walter Mitty is the kind of film that brings out the hero in us, or more precisely the adventurer in us. Walter Mitty is a shy guy who daydreams a lot, like most people, and has a crush on the pretty, quirky girl and lets his new boss bully him around. At least until one of the photo negatives hes in charge of, for the first time in the last 16 years of his job, winds up missing. So Walter, breaks out of his shell and leaves his comfort zone, to travel across the world to find his friend, the photographer, who took the picture.

Its great to see Ben Stiller in a more mature drama role that still has great comedic timing by all performers. I was almost worried that we wouldn't get a complete resolution to the film but by the time the credits rolled, everything is as it should be.

Simply put, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, is about the daydreamer in us all and changing the reality around us and creating the best life for ourself in the real world.

Even though its been maybe a year since i saw this in theaters, i remember it being an awesome movie. I was the only one in the theater so i laughed and cried and cheered with the movie.

One of the most funniest parts was when the nerdy guy, Larry (played by Lee Norris), finally got laid, it was awesome i was cheering & laughing for the nerd, since I'm kinda a nerd myself.

My favorite character by far was Taz (played by Miko Hughes) because it was fun to see him play an A.D.D. kid (I'm A.D.H.D. myself) & i normally see him playing geeky type, shy roles.

If i had money, I'd go out and buy this as soon as it hit shelves :).
