- "The Mighty" is an emotionally affecting movie (much like the recent and somewhat similar " Simon Birch," which is about a friendship between a fatherless boy and a dwarf). It is a little stronger in its central theme, which is that we all have weaknesses, we are not perfect, but together we can be more than the sum of our parts.

Reviews. The Mighty. Roger Ebert October 16, 1998. Tweet. Now streaming on: Powered by JustWatch. You need a brain, I need legs--and the Wizard of Oz doesn't live in south Cincinnati. So speaks a twisted little boy named Kevin to a hulking giant named Max, in the new movie "The Mighty."
Parents say ( 1 ): Kids say ( 3 ): The Mighty is inspiring, and a good movie to initiate a talk with middle schoolers about the way all seventh-graders feel like outcasts at times. What Max learns from Kevin makes it possible for him to survive a terrible family history and an abusive father.
