The most underrated and underappreciated movie ever made

[@Tharrel]

possibly my favourite movie

[@cabuscus]

Its absolutely beautiful. Didnt understand during my first watch when i was 13, but now im 20 and older it really hits home

We’re all going to die. Get out of the paper bag of Covid19. Live with your hope; or die with your fear it’s your choice when you’re free.

[@audrac10]

This is my favorite movie for the last two years I have watched it over and over. It has helped me to see as I have raised my family, given up my dreams, the God sees me. He sees the beauty of sacrifice. Love is sacrifice. And it’s worth it. Don’t buy the b.s. that culture tells you. Self fulfillment leaves you empty.

[@Niner098]

Their has never been a movie that has influenced my life more than this film..I remember watching this in theatres when I was 15 and the first thing after seeing the movie was grabbing a camera that used to be my brothers... now being 22 and about to finish my post-grad in art (Photography) and the previous year being one of 3 students to be nominated for the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photography student photographer of the year..I can't thank this movie enough for how it's shaped my life. Update (2024): Wow I forgot about this comment I posted..Thank you for all the kind messages..still going strong going into 2024!

Now I am living in france since 2 years with my italian gf and I am learning french, b2 level right now. Life it's good and there is a lot out there to discover.

[@HVBRSoF]

This movie is a perfect representation of an introvert's life. Always wanting to break free, but paralyzed by our daydreams. We spend our life in constant daydreams, never really having the courage to break out of that internal monologue and live our lives. Also, that quote by Sean Penn about staying in a moment and not letting photographs ruin the moment is exactly how I feel whenever I experience those moments. You just wanna stay in it and bask in it, soak it all in and not ruin it by wasting time pulling out the camera and stopping for a pose. You save it in your mind, and there, whether it degrades through time and old age, you'll cherish it. Whether it's crystal clear or foggy from poor remembrance - you'll always cherish the feeling of those memories, no matter how poor they become.

[@Poatatero]

Being an introvert is a blessing and a curse but I feel like it’s a curse more often than not

[@demanofall]

Very well said! Thank you.

[@TheHi_King]

That's not being introverted that's being socially awkward and anxious. I'm introverted in the sense that crowds drain my energy and new activites tire me out. That doesn't stop me engaging in social settings and exploring new things. Stop making excuses and hiding behind the cover of being an introvert. Deal with your social anxiety and quit whining

[@HVBRSoF]

I have always knew that i would travel the world, how? I had no idea... I just knew and believe it. At 30 years old l finally got the money to enter in a plane for the first time. Im 43 now, a normal job, an incredible husband and daughter, and on my way to 50 countries. Keep your life simple and put your backpack and go on an adventure. By the way, incredible movie and soundtrack. This is how I feel when I am traveling... Freedom and just enjoy the moment. Forget your photos to Instagram. Greetings from Portugal ❤

I was an archaeology student who was aspired to preserve historic buildings. Back in financial crisis, I found no place to accept me as a PhD student and start working in a marketing job in a big companies in Korea. On my way back from trip, I saw this movie and realized that I want to pursue my dream. I never looked back since. 8 years later from that mom ent, I work as a conservator for historic buildings in NYC. I owe everything to Walter Mitty.

[@SIGE_MUSIC]

Travelling is awesome. But the most important lesson here is to be honest with yourself. Do not fall into the trap of society saying you are wonderful as you are and you fit into a certain category. You're not and you don't. You are not obliged to be the person you were 5 minutes ago. You can redefine yourself and go after what it is you truly want, but it takes commitment and decisive action. Failure is as much a part of life as the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, you have to put your ego aside and learn from these mistakes. Make yourself a better person by DOING things. Don't worry, nothing bad can happen to you. Just imagine everything will be all right and the worst thing that can happen is that people laugh at you, reject you or perhaps even insult you. But none of that matters. You are a good person and you are worth love, happiness, fulfillment, excitement, adventure, ... You have to be able to go after and take what it is you truly want in life, on this planet where life is fleeting and uncertain. Don't do it for other people but do it for yourselves.

[@tarunyadav7856]

That’s such a postive message ...who r u man 👍👍

[@aWomanFreed]

No matter what story you are using to define yourself right now, YOU did not write it, it's a false version of you, a product of all of the programming we are infused with from birth via parents, tell-lie-vision, school, pop culture and religion. The real you is inside, waiting for you to shut off the tv and notice there's an entire universe of possibility at your very fingertips....that's when the real fun begins.......

I've watched this movie at least 5 times and won't stop till i die. When i'm felling sad or depressive i just press play on it to change my life.

[@Mithrandir42]

This movie is amazing. I remember watching it in theatres and not really expecting anything - it is a Ben Stiller film after all - but I sat until the end credits had rolled by, just basking in the absolute brilliance. I'm not going to give some story about how I am an introvert and all that, but this movie is one of the few which have stayed in my mind since I saw it the first time. From the actual plot, to the excellent choice of music and the breathtaking cinematography, Walter Mitty is a movie which should have won all the awards. It is inspiring and beautiful, eliciting a profound emotional response without necessarily trying to. It is amazing!

[@devstation18]

This movie grows on you ……and that’s what makes this a gem

[@Nox.INkRecords]

The levels of clarity and freedom about 'Breaking Free' knowing the risks worth fighting for. I absolutely loved this movie!

[@OlleForsberg]

Ben Stillers Magnum Opus. The man deserves morw recognition for this masterpiece.

[@stephenbrand5779]

Just returned from a holiday in Iceland on the strength of this lovely, joyful film.

[@belmullet72]

This is one of my favourite movies. Not everyone can get the multifaceted layers to it. It sang to me and stirred up emotions around the struggle to be what's expected and the impact to the soul versus embracing the passions in life and the uncertainty but joy it brings. We shouldn't live our lives half asleep. The song captures this perfectly!

During the past weeks, months I have been feeling "shallow" "hollow" ufffff. Sometimes I just wanna cry out of frustration. I dont feel the energy I used to sense within me. This songs and the movie is beautiful. Gives HOPE to many of us as I noticed it on the comments. I gotta Open my EYES again, I dont want to let the Dawn swallow me! I dont know why suddenly this video popped up on the video list. Wish STRENGHT and Positive energy to all the people feeling bad or going through awful moments. OPEN YOUR EYES!

[@mcfixer9503]

such an utterly brilliant movie

[@pietro.granati]

Lost my beloved father some days ago, back here from suggestions on one of my favourite film ever, the title says it all. I started photography thanks to him, hope he will be with me forever ❤love you.

[@abrahamkim1078]

What a beautiful song. In whatever context it’s was meant, I find it relatable in so many ways. Broken-hearted and spiraling out of control. Met another girl broken hearted and in the same free fall. Our few months were healing from our past relationships...companionship with our vices and love of music being the bridge. We healed each other amidst dramas from our partying social lives...there were many. Yet, I can’t thank her enough for taking me away from a dark moment that I couldn’t shake before her impact. Although giving me another slew of problems to reflect on; Weird. Right? she was what I needed at that time. I think she was what I needed as well. She’s happily married now and not the same type of girl she tried to portray herself to be while we were “dating”. She’s the exact opposite. Had I know she’d be that way, we’d probably be together. But I think she’s with a better man for her than me. Hopeless romantic is still in me.

[@MetalSniper63]

I remember this was the first movie I could see in HD... What a Wonderful way to start. It has inspired me for all this years to do what I love, to care for everyone in my life and to never give up on myself. This amazing gem has helped me live through my depression and anxiety reminding me that it is NEVER too late to do what you need to do... Such an underrated movie

[@rieljoson5701]

"Beautiful things don't ask for attention" I really love this movie. Just live your every second of your life.

[@calebbrown9091]

Whoever is out there that needs to hear this. You matter, and you can have a full and exciting life. Go get it!

[@kanukashyap7773]

The most underrated and underappreciated movie ever made.... I only want to say it is the loss of those who don't understand this movie🙏🙏

[@moralester]

I've always loved this so much. It's a perfect example of what movies and music can make you feel. This is a beautiful combination of both and I can't stop replaying it

[@KevinBrooks_c]

This literally save and changed my life forever. It will be forever a piece of gold in my heart.

[@mortenhansen3455]

In my humble opinion, this is easily one of the best movies ever made (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty). I've seen it over 10 times and it never gets boring! Plus the soundtrack is truly awesome!

[@antoninoingrosso1991]

Such a wonderful movie.

[@salledeson9680]

One of my favorite movie and song. Reminds me of my own life especially when I lost my job (working for 16 years or more) and how I tried to get out of my comfort zone just like what Life's motto said. Nice edit

[@growlith6969]

That movie has a special place in my heart. I can't say how much influence it had, but it was definitely there when I needed it.

[@anhphong]

I love you Walter Mitty. You have made what i am trying for. I love the way you jumped out the helicopter. I was laughing and tearing. No matters how you jumped, you did the jump

[@holycrab6316]

7 years ago this movie introduced me to some of my favorite songs and artists including this one. Favourite movie of all time. Thank you for making my life less miserable.

[@524リョウガ]

Every time I feel my life doesn't move as smooth as I imagined, get depressed, recover from it, and start to replan my life, I listen to this song. Life is not so that easy but that's the reason how you can be happy.

[@benthorne3156]

This is the most beautiful movie I have ever seen. It inspired me to buy a camera and get out in the world. I doubt I will ever try and get shots of ghost cats in the Himalaya, but for now I'm wandering and living my best life. Definitely changed the course of my life

[@catchinggates]

In a way, I'm a lot like Walter in the fact that as a 29 year old adult, I still have my imagination very bright and vibrant. It has gotten smaller over the years, but with the commute to school and work and for groceries, my music makes this dreary and mundane world of mine, magical. I still have my imaginary characters, although I don't have my imaginary friends anymore. And I think of audcious and crazy scenarios. But lately, it's like the light has left my eyes. Even so, there is one imaginary character that hasn't left and that is myself and sometimes my god. When I'm down for the count, a brighter self, pushes me forward. She's mystical in the way she looks at me. Aware of my potential and flaws, and she doesn't reject me anymore. She helps me cope with the fact that we are very human and it's okay to be. As long as we keep trying every day and year to be better. In the clouds and in the trees I see little glimpses of my god and I wonder...about the people who passed and the people who will come and everyone here still struggling to be alive. Will they keep their dreams? Or will they bury them? I pray that we each can find at least one dream out of all the dreams we make up and choose to guide our lives with. Because in the end it's just daydreams. A daydream that became a goal and a dream, that you tied your life and time to, dedicating...unsure if it'll bring you happiness at all. And that's amazing and it's crazy. But it's human and real. For Walter, he was able to break through his own barrier of imagination and walk hand in hand with reality and his dreams of his better and outgoing self. I aspire that still. And will continue to work on it. For what a grand dream to dream alive...with waking eyes.

[@rajeshk4262]

Maybe we all will break through just like Walter from this vicious cycle, but one at a time.

[@maneli3098]

Thank you for this comment.

[@genusrosaceous]

I saw your drawing that goes with "Let me dream." It's not the world that's magical; ...it's you.

[@ThePols87]

Such an underrated movie and soundtrack. One of my all-time favourites for sure

[@DePhpBug]

I've watched this multiple times already, and recently it popped up on Netflix, prompting me to watch it again. It serves as a powerful reminder that life is short; we should explore the world, savor every moment, and maximize our enjoyment. Let's not merely dream but take decisive actions to make those dreams a reality.

[@jackwai0904]

Life is about courage and going into the unknown. One will get lost when staying in the norm for too long, it will blind you. It's always nice to refresh once in a while and carry on, you'll find something new that might suit you better. ps: I wish there is a love button for this soundtrack and movie.

[@rachelrachel9152]

I had literally read the short story in high school this movie is inspired by the year it came out, i had meant to go see it in theaters but never got around to it, happened to catch it on tv one day and it immediately became my favorite movie, i can't believe they made such an amazing movie with such an amazing cast in tribute to life magazine and print media in general, inspired by that short story

[@plub9]

Great song! Great movie! I’m grateful for this movie introducing me to Jose. He’s one of my favorites now.

[@beautifulwings8042]

Something about this song just hits me in the heart. And I really liked this movie, so thank you.

[@mikec3749]

There is something special about this movie that is hard to put into words.

[@VinayKumar-pe2xu]

The one movie I watch when I feel low and with this soundtrack it has made me to watch it again. Ben Stiller is a hidden treasure.

[@guyjperson]

Other than this IS NOT a Walter Mitty movie, this movie is one of the greatest movies of my life. This Jose Gonzalez song cannot play without me thinking of a milquetoast guy outrunning a volcano on a skateboard in Iceland. Gonzalez is a great musician. But this is a GREAT movie.

[@MrSupermehn]

This movie changed my life. Saw this a dozen times already. This is my "feel-good" movie.

[@celiasdream145]

I love the detail of how he looks more comfortable and confident with himself after his trip. He was like a whole new person; more decisive about his decisions instead of just dreaming about it… it’s impressive how travel the world helps you to improve your personality

[@felixgosselin4718]

After watching this movies, I realised that to live truly, you have to get out your comfort zone, explore, try new stuff, open your mind and travel. I am grateful to this movie, in a month from now, I'll be travelling for the first time alone.

[@battousai_the_mansplainer1045]

My fiancé got me a brown leather wallet with the quote, "because beautiful things don't ask for attention." This was a movie that really stood out to us because it's a meaning we both really understood

[@ephTheClone]

This movie made me cry. Because I relate to Mitty so much. 💗💗💕

[@annevergara7220]

This movie has always been like a warm hug :)
