Review of The Mighty

The Mighty (1998)
10/10
There have been very few films that have made me cry. This one made me weep.

Every single cast member gives a riveting and moving performance in The Mighty, a beautiful film about the power and strength of friendship and imagination and especially faith. Max is a giant stuck in 7th grade because of his low IQ. He forges a very close friendship with newcomer Kevin, a tiny scientific genius with a severe back deformity. Max protects Kevin from bullies, and Kevin teaches Max about the Knights of the Round Table. With Kevin on Max's shoulders, they go around on adventures and doing good deeds like their heroes, the Knights.

My only problem with this film is that I think Sharon Stone gets way too much credit. Don't get me wrong, she does an amazing job. It's just that I don't think her role is that big compared to the rest. Other than that, it's AMAZING!!!!!

In the words of another enthusiastic commenter: "Rent it, buy it, SEE IT!!!"
