I have rarely connected with a character or movie as much as I did with The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. There is nothing more powerful than when a comedian is given a dramatic role and hits a home-run. This well could become known as the best of Ben Stillers career. Expecting a remake of the original I was blown away by the message of the movie. The evolution of Walter from pale, drab, little noticed office worker to the man who discovers how to live was moving me to tears. The cinematography should win an Oscar. This film is beautifully shot and the completely engulfing vistas alone are worth twice the price of admission. How Walter comes to live Lifes motto is gripping. And the final cover of Life tugs at your heart. The score of the film is very well done. Ben Stiller picked the perfect songs and background music for every shot of the film. I wish the rating scale went higher than 10. Go see this film. In the theater. On the large screen. Now.
