The quintessence of anti hero films. Ben Stiller shines both as the protagonist and director of this unassuming yet complex character study. Beautifully shot, masterfully edited,, and paired with an amazing soundtrack, Walter Mitty embodies the magic of true classic filmmaking that doesn't rely on extensive CGI, over-the-top characters or pithy dialogue. Kristen Wiig holds her own as does the ensemble supporting cast masterfully crafted to include the always amazing Shirley MacLaine and ever cool Sean Penn. More than what is destined to be an cult classic, Walter Mitty is clever, creative and a genuine representation of good old fashioned movie making.

Inspiring, insightful, and intriguing.
