Who has not been dreaming of just leaving? I mean, to just get up and go away? To escape the daily dilemma and experience the world? C'mon, we all did once, haven't we?
Well, that is like the plot of "The secret life of Walter Mitty". Whatever, the movie kind of represents daily things we all have experienced. Like: Daydreaming. Come on guys, I can't be the only one who sometimes has some of these. The pacing of the movie is wonderful! The whole movie feels like ther is so much passion in it. The directing captures every single emotion and pushes them through your body.
I am actually no fan of Ben Stiller, but what he has done here is just simply amazing. As director and as actor he really brings it to the top. This is actually his most real natural performance, his humor is great but still he is serious to the audience. The other actors do a great job as well. Even Sean Penn, well, in the five minutes and the six lines he had.
This whole thing is underlined by an awesome soundtrack which features "Of Monsters and Men" as well. I really think this is the best soundtrack (soundtrack- not score) of the year. Even better than Gatsbys.
So, if you haven't planned anything this holidays, go see this movie! It is, in my opinion, the best of 2013!
