Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
View MorePerfectly adorable
Let's be realistic.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
View MoreI read the book Freak The Mighty, then watched this movie. I was not impressed at all. The movie jumps around the book,with events happening out of order, and most viewers wondering what they missed. The only part that really remains true to the book is the last ten minutes or so after Freak dies.The chapter names stay true to the book except for one, and the actors are mostly believable in their respective roles. Whoever plays the big kid does a great job as well. The film can remain emotional when needed, but it's just not enough justice for the book's fans, as it won a literature award when it was published. If you want to see the movie, go ahead, but read the book for comparison first.
View MoreI discovered this movie while on a flight home from Germany. I was so impressed I came home and told everyone I knew to find it and watch it. It is not an easy movie to find but it is so worth the search. We've used it in our youth groups several times over the years. People borrow my DVD all the time to see it again. This movie bombed at the box office, but most critics have said that it failed because it was so poorly advertised. I have to agree. Excellent cast, very good acting, and an great storyline. It is a crying shame this movie was done in by a pitiful advertising campaign. Don't let this one slip you by. Make the effort to find it and watch it. You will not be disappointed. In fact, don't be surprised if you too find yourself adding this one to your library.
View MoreI love this film. It is so great. I think it's much different than most other movies, especially like how it breaks the movie into multiple different titled chapters. I have read the book and it is just brilliant. It's so sad how Freak died at the end and Max was running barefoot into the research center and then just got down and started crying after he found out it was a laundry place. It is a brilliant movie. I did not cry, but there were probably a lot of people who did. I love this movie. I don't know what my favorite part was. I liked the fireworks part when Max picked up Freak and put him on top of his shoulders because Freak had trouble seeing the fireworks. I also liked when Blade and his gang attacked Freak and Max took the manhole cover and used it as a shield. I especially loved when Freak was playing with his chop suey. You really have to see this movie because it is brilliant, great, touching, and you would just love it.
View MoreIf there's ever a chance for me to write to the actors 'Kevin' and 'Max', I want to say 'thank you' to them and the producer.I chanced upon this movie, and was swept over by the story....The whole movie is about the friendship between Max and Kevin. It's a movie that springs forth love, hope, and faith in this chaotic world. To have this in real life is rare, but I hope that my life can be true and be like Max, to have courage and do to the good deeds, to be like Kevin, to give hope to others.The first scene that moved my heart is when Max carried Kevin on him for the fireworks. It is a beautiful scene where self-giving and love are shown.The music in this movie plays a very important role. The songs and music are very well chosen for the movie. They are also played at the right time during the movie to bring out the spirit.Thank you and well done! Let's be a channel of love, hope and faith to others in this chaotic world.
