The Mighty Reviews. All Critics. Top Critics. All Audience. Verified Audience. Nell Minow Common Sense Media. TOP CRITIC. Good movie about friendship for middle schoolers. Full Review |...
Sounds cheesy, but The Mighty is anything but. Peter Chelson, director of the inventive and original Funny Bones, has lovingly superimposed Rodman Philbrick's successful children's book Freak The Mighty to the screen. The result is as moving as any kiddies film you've seen in the last ten years.
