Product Description

From Amazon.com

Caught between the purest of intentions and unimaginative shortcuts to sentimentality, The Mighty is nevertheless rewarding enough to make it worth seeing. Kieran Culkin stars as Kevin, a terminally ill but spirited young boy who befriends a healthy but illiterate social outcast, Maxwell (Elden Henson). They realize that together they are a stronger, braver force than they are as individuals, and the various opportunities they have to confront persecutors and memories of their bad fathers are handled very effectively by director Peter Chelsom (a very original filmmaker who made the terrific Funny Bones). The curious adult casting includes Sharon Stone (a natural scene-stealer even when she doesn't intend it) as Kevin's saintly mother, and Gillian Anderson in a quite-unbelievable supporting role. Chelsom's lapses in judgment are not terribly significant (imaginary appearances by Camelot-era knights on horseback are the most annoying), though one could argue that a plot to kidnap one of the boys is a cheesy way to underscore the kids' redemptive loyalty to one another. Still, all in all, you can laugh and cry at this tale of rare friendship, and admire the sensitive performances by Chelsom's younger players. --Tom Keogh

Un film sur le pouvoir de l'imaginaire... à voir absolument! Cette histoire d'amitié entre deux jeunes garçons hors normes est admirablement servie par l'excellence des acteurs et la musique envoûtante.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Mighty, July 16 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mighty (Widescreen) (DVD)
I think that the movie THE MIGHTY was one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life. It followed the book pretty well which is good and the casting was very good. The book brought tears to my eyes and the movie did too. If you like drama, this is a touching story that is good for the whole family. I really enjoy watching it.

5.0 out of 5 stars For those who've ever felt different, inferior or left out!, April 14 2004
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Mighty (Widescreen) (DVD)
Some folks like to "put down" movies that are obviously meant to make a person feel good. This movie really struck me deep down to the core. I was transported back to my own childhood to relive a little pain because I related so much to both of the main characters. With that little bit of pain, I also got to relive a whole bunch of joy, because I also related so much to their triumphs!!! Buy this movie and let yourself feel good.
