V kraljestvu divjih bitij

Slovenski opis filma:

Devetletni Max pobegne od doma in odpluje v kraljestvo divjih bitij, kjer postane kralj. Vladati mora velikanskim pošastim, kar ni tako preprosto, kot se morda zdi! Naravnost čarobna priredba otroške klasike Maurica Sendaka.V nas je … vse, kar smo kdaj videli, vse, kar smo kdaj storili, in v nas so vsi, ki smo jih kdaj ljubili. Inovativni režiser Spike Jonze je združil moči s priznanim pisateljem Mauricom Sendakom in na velika platna prenesel eno njegovih najbolj priljubljenih knjig "V kraljestvu divjih bitij" - klasično zgodbo o otroštvu in krajih, ki jih obiščemo, da bi spoznali svet, v katerem živimo. Film pripoveduje o razposajenem in občutljivem dečku Maxu, ki ga doma ne razumejo, zato pobegne na otok, na katerem spozna skrivnostna in nenavadna bitja, katerih čustva so enako divja in nepredvidljiva kot njihova dejanja. Divja bitja si želijo nekoga, ki bi jih vodil, prav tako kot Max hrepeni po kraljestvu, ki bi mu vladal. Ko ga okronajo za kralja, obljubi, da bo ustvaril kraj, v katerem bodo vsi srečni. Vendar kmalu ugotovi, da vladanje ni tako preprosto in da so odnosi precej bolj zapleteni, kot se mu je sprva zdelo.

Originalni opis filma:

A young boy named Max has an active imagination, and he will throw fits if others don't go along with what he wants. Max - following an incident with Claire (his sister) and her friends, and following a tantrum which he throws as a result of his Mother paying more attention to her boyfriend than to him - runs away from home. Wearing his wolf costume at the time, Max not only runs away physically, but runs toward a world in his imagination. This world, an ocean away, is inhabited by large wild beasts, including one named Carol who is much like Max himself in temperament. Instead of eating Max like they normally would with creatures of his type, the wild things befriend Max after he proclaims himself a king who can magically solve all their problems.
