The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is a good-hearted delight.December 26, 2013
Stiller's sensibility creates a movie that's smarter than you think it will be. Kind of like Walter Mitty himself.December 26, 2013
It has little narrative interest and requires that the director latch onto a very specific airy tone of whimsy, lest the whole souffle collapse.January 21, 2014
This is one of the more disappointing efforts of the holiday movie season.December 26, 2013
Painstakingly stylish, this is Stiller's most ambitious directorial work to date but also his most cloying.April 17, 2016
[Stiller's] creative fingerprints are few and far between here, the pic's spoon-fed schmaltziness betraying [his] typical satiric edge.April 03, 2016
Somehow, out of a no-win situation, Stiller manages to make a likable movie that entertains while also providing a little get-out-of-the-basement inspiration.June 19, 2016
With such high aims, it's too bad that 'The Secret Life of Walter Mitty' falls somewhat short of greatness. But it's not often that you come across a "big" movie as earnest and patently un-cynical as this one.June 20, 2016
The most universally satisfying Hollywood films are usually predicated on a dialectical relationship... But Walter Mitty is too clumsy and afraid to offend to properly take that journey, not unlike its titular character.January 01, 2014
Stiller's attempt to braid together introspection and humor kept me engaged and curious, even when I wasn't quite sure what he was setting out to do.August 10, 2016
This is surprisingly nowhere near the Hollywood nightmare you might be thinking (or fearing).
