I don’t know if it’s too late to talk about how impressed I was with ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty‘ movie. When I watched it for the first time, I didn’t expect any spectacular view and great soundtracks. But it turned out to be one of those movies I saw twice in theatre because me and my husband liked it so much.
The story itself might be quite simple for some audiences. The sudden globe-trotting adventure life of Walter Mitty, a guy who spent most of his years behind the desk…but I’m that kind of person who are easily pleased by beautiful visuals and music. And who can resist the tremendous beauty of Iceland and the soothing voice of Jose Gonzales (and the rest of the soundtracks)? The colors and the sound of ‘Walter Mitty’ really suit the eyes and the heart.
Well this movie is directed by Ben Stiller, the actor who happened to be the director of Reality Bites (1994). Yes, I’m a proud 90s girl! If you’re one of those young and restless 20 something and you haven’t watched Reality Bites? I insist you to see this movie. You won’t regret it. ;)
‘Walter Mitty’ is definitely on my list of ‘2014 favorite movies’
So, what’s your favorite movie of the early 2014? :)

Wah aku setuju banget dengan artikel mba Nika ini. Aku & suami juga nonton 2 kali hahaha…
Sangat favorit, perpaduan mulai dari akting, lagu-lagunya, visual, ide cerita, semuanya menyatu, oke banget dan kena di hati. Walter benar-benar keluar dari comfort zone, kita juga pasti bisa ya :)
Aku share ya quote yang ada di filmnya, yang merupakan motto of LIFE magazine:
“To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, to draw closer, to find each other and to feel. That is the purpose of life.”
Selain film ini, film favoritku di awal 2014, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit. Ceritanya juga menginspirasi, dia keluar dari comfort zonenya untuk negaranya. Pasti bangga banget deh rasanya ya, bisa memberikan yang terbaik dari diri kita, untuk orang lain, apalagi untuk negara :)
