The Secret Life of Walter Mitty #review

With sweeping cinematography and stellar performances THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY, tells the story of a timid magazine photo manager who lives life vicariously through daydreams and when a negative goes missing must embark on an incredible true-life adventure. With stand-out performances from Ben Stiller (Night At The Museum, Meet The Parents) Golden Globe** and six-time Emmy Award*** nominated actress Kristen Wiig (Saturday Night Live, Bridesmaids, How To Train Your Dragon), Adam Scott (Step Brothers) and Shirley MacLaine (Wild Oats), the THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY Blu-rayTM and DVD is loaded with more than an hour of behind-the-scenes special features, including deleted, extended and alternative scenes, featurettes that dive into filming in Iceland and Walter Mitty history, a gallery of exclusive reference photography, and music video "Stay Alive" by José González, and more.

I was not sure what to expect with this film.  The previews/clips looked amazing, so when it started out slow, I was certain it had to get better. It does jump in the beginning between real-life and Walter's imagination, so that was a bit hard to follow at first, till I got used to it.   This movie is a work of art, the scenery, cinematography, the locations, colors, etc. are just amazing!  Walter Mitty is on a journey of self-discovery.    Sometime the journey is not about where you go, but about rediscovering who you are inside and Walter learns this on his adventures. Walter has to take a step outside his comfort zone and while doing so learns to become confident, not afraid to take chances and believe in himself.   This is a truly uplifting and great story.  I really enjoyed this film as did my husband.  He kept stating, I can't wait to see how this ends, such an interesting movie!
