    Ben Stiller's performance as a restrained but likeable Walter Mitty, forced by circumstance to give up his dreams to look after his family, is one of the highlights of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. His daydream fantasies of a life of adventure and romance start to become a reality when he finds himself on the hunt for an elusive photographer (Sean Penn) who holds an important negative of an amazing photograph that is meant to be on the final cover of Life Magazine. He follows the trail from New York, to Greenland, to Iceland and then to the mountains of Afghanistan, encountering physical hardship, amazing scenery and interesting people along the way.

    The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is a fantastical movie, full of gorgeous scenery and a sweet story. Ben Stiller proves once again that he is a talent to be reckoned with. Not only does he direct and produce the movie, but he stars in it too; pulling off both humour, sadness and everything in-between. The movie is similar to Forrest Gump in feeling and we get to follow Mitty as he goes on a journey to rediscover the wonderfulness of life. The film takes us to remote places in the world that you didn't realize held such beauty. If you see one film this holiday season, see The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.

    With exceptional cinematography, this film inspired me to not let fears of my future stand in the way of my happiness. From it's corny antidotes to the exposure to the elements, I believe that this was Ben Stiller's BEST performance yet!

    Life if always full of adventure if you are willing to explore. Stay within your comfortable zone will not gain any extra joy. No one can force you unless you want to make a move. That is the enlightenment from the movie.
