The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Ratings & Reviews
Detroit News
Tom Long
This is a notably more upbeat attitude than the original short story had and Stiller sells it well.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
It has little narrative interest and requires that the director latch onto a very specific airy tone of whimsy, lest the whole souffle collapse.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
While stunning sequences show him skateboarding away from an erupting volcano and fighting off a great white shark, the character never becomes more than a fuzzy conceit.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
I hated, hated, hated this movie.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
In our daydreams, an ambitious, world-embracing movie like "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" deserves to be a bigger hit than yet another "Night at the Museum" or "Madagascar" sequel. But your mileage may vary.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
It can be sentimental, but it is not frivolous.
What the Flick?!
Alonso Duralde
Ben Stiller has created a movie about how cool Ben Stiller is.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
There are some bracingly robust images, befitting a story about the man who goes places and the man who looks at the pictures of places.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
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.
Slate
Dana Stevens
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.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Stiller's sensibility creates a movie that's smarter than you think it will be. Kind of like Walter Mitty himself.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Sometimes you see failed films and think, well, they tried for this or that but couldn't pull it off. After seeing Ben Stiller's version of the venerable James Thurber story, I don't know what the film was trying for.
Chicago Reader
Drew Hunt
Painstakingly stylish, this is Stiller's most ambitious directorial work to date but also his most cloying.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Our identification gives way to envy, and [Mitty] is another one of those enchanted people the rest of us can only dream of becoming.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
Mitty pays tribute to people who cherish the past and, in the face of extinction, are devoted to preserving it.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The movie feels uncertain as to its own tones and intentions.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
For much of its first half, during which visuals replace vision, Walter Mitty stumbles down a rabbit hole of technological triumph. But then something unexpected happens: It turns into a sweetly engaging blockbuster.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Dreams not only come true in the wonderful "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," they're the stuff everyday life is made of.
L.A. Weekly
Amy Nicholson
Like Mitty, Stiller dreams big. The problem is that audiences don't let him. He's both famous and forgotten, the best comedy director of his generation hiding in plain sight.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" just doesn't work.
