"The Mighty"

Dramatic

Review by Nick Burton, from Fairborn,Ohio, on 31-Mar-2009

The movie “The Mighty” was produced by Miramax. It began with a kid by the name of Maxwell Kane. Max lives with his grandparents Grim and Gram. He lost his mother when his Father murdered her. Max meet a kid named Kevin. Kevin was a Midget who was hoping to have a new body. Kevin lives with Gwen. His dad left when he a birth defect. Max and Kevin went on crazy adventures together. Max’s Father got out of jail with parole board. His father found him and kidnapped him. Kevin went on an adventure to find Max. He found Max and they’re both happy. In the end Kevin dies because his Heart got too big for his body. Gwen moves away and later got married. The book Kevin gave to Max was wrote by Max of all there crazy Adventures. The plot of the movie was good because it goes through the plot chart. It has an exposition, rising action, climax, falling action and a resolution t the movie. The movie changed from the book it was based on called “Freak the Mighty” but they almost have the same plot chart.

The Production Quality was perfect. There was good lighting and the actors were well dressed. The lighting was not to dark or to light it was perfect. The actors were perfect for there role. They were not too dramatic or less dramatic. They were well cast by the director of the movie. The pacing of the movie was Like in the middle. Not to fast or to slow. I thought it was going to be quick but it was a movie that you can get into was you get to the climax of it. Some other observations I caught was that some words from the book was in the movie. The way they described the characters in the book fit them in the movie. The mood of the story was the same in the book.
