I watched this movie three times already. I am a fan of Ben Stiller and he both starred and directed this film.

Whether you like him or not, I strongly encourage you to watch it.

Why?

Because it’s a movie that’d inspire you to do shit.

Yes, the movie has all your typical Eat Pray Love elements:

  • The protagonist, Walter Mitty is a daydreamer working a typical corporate job. You can tell he yearns to do more in life.
  • He ends up travelling some parts of the world and sees amazing shit.
  • He does crazy shit like fighting off a shark in the open seas.
  • He finds love.
  • He meets interesting people.
  • He stands up to a douchebag of a boss.

And so on.

Cliched? Perhaps.

But still awesome.

The movie direction. The cinematography. The special effects. The acting. The script. The characters working together to create a new whole. The humor. The music.

It’s all good shit. Here’s a memorable quote from it:

And here’s the trailer:
