冒険に出るにふさわしい理由は二つ。写真のネガ探しと好きな女性の何気ない背中押しです。
デスクにしがみついていた彼が、大自然と格闘しながら目的に向けて常人が経験しないような道のりを経て、最後には自分の住んでいる街でネガを見つけ出す。大昔からある「幸せは自分の足元にある」という筋書きでありながら、映像や冒険する国の自然の素晴らしさで画面に吸い込まれます。
数回観て、好きな場面を再生して、しばらくするとまた観たくなると感じて、3日間ではなく購入しました。
ご都合展開はあれど、素晴らしい景色がそんなことどうでも良いって思わせてくれる。
素敵な映画です!
人生に迷い、何をして良いかわからなく、ただダラダラと過ごす日々から脱却したいけど、わかっているのにやる気が出ない、、、そんな時、この映画は何よりも薬になります
見終わったら、無意味に走りたくなります
冒険に出たくなります
そんな映像です
毎日最高に楽しい人が観たらもしかしたら何も感じないかもしれません。
最後、失くした25番ネガがどんな写真だったのかぜひ観てください!涙
人を応援したくなって、自分にも励みになって、元気がもらえる映画でした

The cinematography is outstanding--gorgeous, on location filming paired flawlessly with a soundtrack that resonates in your bones. Stiller's performance is one of his best--he's still got a bit of his goofy humor, but he makes Walter real, relatable, and sympathetic. You root for him when he's facing failure, and his subtle fortitude and strength is the true heart of the character. No, this is not the same exact Walter Mitty from the story. This is a modernization, and modern audiences want a story that has a resolution.
As a teacher, I've used this movie and the story in the classroom, comparing both and analyzing themes and motifs in each version. Walter daydreams because he is trapped in a life that leaves him, essentially, emasculated. His wife henpecks him, he feels inadequate to other men, and has no control over his life. In his daydreams, he becomes an expert, a professional, the linchpin that holds crises together, the ideal man. In the movie, Walter is under everyone else's control--he quietly works and follows the rules in order to take care of his family. Pretty similar to the story... this time, he's single, but the women in his life (mom, sister) are the ones who have the influence over him, which is parallelled at work. There, he works in the basement, quietly supporting everyone who contributes to Life magazine, and mostly unrecognized as anything other than a mouse. Again, emasculated by females, and intimidated or overshadowed by more assertive, more masculine men. The photographer Sean O'Connell is the ultimate example of masculinity, unafraid, adventurous, somewhat inscrutable, but kind and thoughtful. Walter admires him even as he feels inadequate when compared to him.
The addition of a love interest (oh, how I love Kristen Wiig!) is the catalyst for change in the film. Without her, Walter would have just continued in his humdrum life, doing his duty to his family and being unnoticed everywhere. Patton Oswalt serves as the voice of normalcy (a bit like a Greek Chorus), voicing the perspectives of all extroverts in society. And in the end, this becomes an important relationship--another guy in the world, making a difference for someone. And that's what Walter really wants--to be appreciated a little and not lonely. And in the story, that's what Mitty wants, too. A little appreciation.
This movie takes a contemporary perspective on this concept and makes it epic. Instead of limping on in multiple daydreams, Walter takes a chance, and as Robert Frost wrote, "that has made all the difference." Ultimately, you have a basic plot (man vs. himself) fleshed out in a delicately, carefully-wrought tale (and yes, there are some cool, subtle things that make this an awesome movie) that takes the viewer on a journey that ends with a smile and inspiration. Need some examples? The original story was published in the New Yorker in 1942. Walter is 42, and the story begins on his birthday, in New York, where he works for a prestigious magazine. No coincidence! :)
Shirley MacLaine is perfect as Walter's mom, a loving if slightly scattered mother with a practical point of view. Adam Scott is delightfully detestable as the new, arrogant, egotistic, and goal-oriented boss, a perfect foil for Walter. The rest of the supporting cast is believeable and well-chosen. Even the camera angles used subtly emphasize Walter's lack of control over his life, especially the ones in the beginning where the camera is high above him, showing him to be ant-like in the crowds of people bustling about. This perspective emphasizes his anonymity in society.
I even like the opening credits of this movie--subtly blended into the picture as if they were merely normal signs on the street. Even that emphasizes Walter's invisibility in the simplest, ordinary things.
So, I love this movie for both the story, the deeper elements, and the craft of filmmaking. This movie completely changed the way I see David Bowie's "Major Tom", as well. :)

Like all films of short stories, it bears no resemblance to the original other than taking the main idea and going it's own way with it.
Thus it bears no resemblance to the original film version starring Danny Kaye other than having the same basic plot as that did also.
Ben Stiller stars and directs.
Walter works for life magazine, has a crush on a co-worker [Kristen Wiig] and can't complete an online dating profile properly because he doesn't have much - if anything - he can put on it.
Anything that he's done in reality and not his imagination, that is.
When the magazine faces closure, and the last ever issue is due, a famous photographer [Sean Penn] sends in a photo for the cover. But the negative isn't where it should be. And the quest for it sends Walter on a real life adventure more spectacular than anything he could ever have imagined...
This is a project that was in development for a long time, and went through many potential leads and directors. All of the previous choices, you might expect, would have turned it into an out and out comedy. But Ben Stiller manages something different and far more subtle.
There's occasional character comedy here, all of which arises as it should from character interaction rather than the need for a joke every few minutes. The film starts slowly, but with a purpose. Just to ease you into the reality of Walter's ordinary life, before pushing him off on adventure.
But what catches the eye is the direction. The film jumps from fantasy to reality so seamlessly, with visuals that mesh together perfectly. And the music adds to all this. It's a famous and very subtle score that does enhance the mood.
The aim of which is to inspire and make you relate to the main character. Which it succeeds in doing, because when he finally makes one very brave leap, the moment is cinema magic.
With stunning location photography throughout, this is a treat for the eye. And the writing is clever, managing to let the plot develop nicely with some surprises along the way.
Sometimes in life you get inspired. Something makes you want to break the routine and do something new and different. This film is one of those that will make you feel like that. Not least because it's subtle about the points it's trying to make, so you get them completely.
Superbly directed, very well acted, and an inspiring experience. Watch it. It might just make you change your life. If you dare.
The dvd box says that it only has language and subtitle options in English, but the set up menu on the disc actually gives the following:
Languages: English. Russian. Ukrainian.
Subtitles: English Danish Finnish Norwegian Russian Swedish Estonia Latvian Lithuanian Ukrainian.
The disc doesn't start with any trailers, and goes straight to the main menu when loaded.
Extras are:
The look of life.
The music of Walter Mitty.
Two featurettes, both running no more than five minutes [approx.]. about the look of the life magazine set and the score of the film. Both are very interesting but a bit too short to have as much impact as they could.
However Skateboarding through Iceland, a two minute long compilation of film of a key sequence being filmed, is a quite interesting look at how it was done.
There's also a short section of reference photographs that the film used for some of the key scenes, which can be navigated through via the menu keys on the dvd remote.
