I liked this movie very much. At first I thought it would be a comedy, but after I saw it, I heard that it was based on a short story. The comedic actors did a great job. There was a point near the beginning that I thought if they just continue with all the fantastic imaginary scenarios & hallucinations that the main character (Ben Stiller) was having, it was going to get tiresome fast. But that turned around quickly, and it ended up being a truly engaging and unpredictabe film with a very strong moral. It's amazing how a short story could be turned into a thoroughly enjoyable movie.

Ben Stiller stars as a bookish introvert who only comes out of his shell by day dreaming of love and adventure until one day he is forced to leave the comfort zone of his own mind and venture out into the real world to solve a mystery. Ben Stiller's performance is typical,at times light and at times deadpan and the humour is what might be called subdued through-out the film. There are some laughs but the humour is more sophisticated than a typical Stiller film. What really makes the Secret Life of Walter Mitty soar are the imagery, location, story and special effects that lift the movie from the screen. There are some interesting twists and the ending is simple and satisfying. This is an en

Ben Stiller found the right movie to showcase his usual acting persona in Walter's 'secret life' and a more serious role as Walter Mitty. Sean Penn, Shirley MacLaine and Kristen Wiig were excellent casting choices.

Moment agréable dans l'imaginaire de Walter Mitty tout en revenant dans son réel. Prises de vues extérieures magnifiques.

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

From the opening credits till the end, the movie is visually stunning. The idea of showing the fantasy world of a daydreamer is interresting also. But the real life adventure is a bit "over the top". The characters are also absolutly stereotypical. The film is enjoyable.

great cinematography, very different and entertaining, excellent acting by Ben Stiller

User review rating: 5 December 13, 2013

My husband and I truly enjoyed this movie. Actually both cried at the end.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

It was a great story and definitely a "feel good" movie. Visually stunning! Definitely a fun watch.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Touching, funny and more than I expected. Ben Stiller has really matured and I feel his career could take a great new direction with this film

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

A very refreshing movie! The views and the special effect are superb. Ben Stiller is impressive in that type of character. That movie makes you wish to go see the world. I recommand it.

User review rating: 5 December 13, 2013

What a great script! The dream sequences were really funny. I really liked the images of Greenland and Iceland and also the scenes where you woul;d see the writing in stange places. And it,s nice to see he gets the girl in the end. But why didn't they give him his job back?

Good scenario,

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

a little slow at work, but gorgeous scenery

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

I found the movie was a little off. Slightly boring in the begining and a little far fetched. The scenery was amazing and I would love to visit Iceland! Would I recommend it; on a tuesday, when it's half the price.

The title doesn't do this movie justice. Just based on the title, I likely wouldn't have paid to see it in the theatre. However, I have since been recommending this movie to all of my friends and family. Worth the watch.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

I enjoyed the movie particularly the ending.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

I would have given it 5 stars but I found the beginning confusing in that I thought it was a super hero fantasy and it lost me for a moment. As the movie progressed I caught the story line and found the ending to be spectacular. Great life lesson left me warm and fuzzy.

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

I thought it would be funnier. A bit too "out there" for me.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Great entertainment. Stiller nails Mitty myth.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Amazing choreography

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

I thought this movie was really interesting and inspiring! I really enjoyed the concept of this film and found it visually appealing! Ben Stiller did a great job of his character Walter Mitty! I also really enjoyed Patton Oswalt! It was a cute film that I would definitely see again.

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

Such a beautiful and light movie, great cast. The soundtrack with some absolutely delightful nature scenes from around the world was the best part of the movie for me. I wish there was less emphasis on the special effects though. Overall definitely worth a watch, feel good movie

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Way better than I expected, an amazing job by Ben Stiller, with amazing effects. The story was really inspiring, and you left the theatre feeling good!

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

There were some moments and the photography was good. The story line and dream sessions, however, were a bit far-fetched.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Great film. Funny and charming. I've never been a huge fan of Ben Stiller until now. He was amazing in this film

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

An interesting and entertaining take on the Mitty myth. Worth a Tuesday splurge at the movies!

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

A fun, feel good movie that is a bit predictable but with some amazing scenic footage. Made me want to leave the theater and jump on a plane.

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

Ben Stiller is good. Thanks for the tickets.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

It was very entertaining and the soundtrack to the movie was amazing. All in all an enjoyable experience

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

It is a nice, inspiring movie about a man who lives a straight, white-collar life who is pushed to live outside of his regular box. There were some awe-inspiring cinematographic scenery and some real, make you think moments BUT I found the end a little bit less than what I was expecting.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Very good, makes you think. Good meaning behind the movie, very good ending.

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

User review rating: 4 December 13, 2013

Great film. Introspective without being too preachy or maudlin.

User review rating: 5 December 13, 2013

The movie was well-thought out and creatively produced. Loved Ben Stiller and his acting and would definitely recommend!

User review rating: 3 December 13, 2013

The movie was okay but I was expecting a lot more action, comedy, story.

User review rating: 5 December 12, 2013

My daughter and I really enjoyed this movie! There were moments of such hilarity we couldn't stop laughing, and then of course the actual moments of reality checks coupled with Walter Mitty's zoning out was portrayed really well by Ben Stiller and all the supporting actors. I did not hear about the movie until I received the advance screening tickets, so I am really glad I got the chance to see it! Not to be missed!!!
