Freak The Mighty: Similarities Between The Movie And The Book

When you look at my older sister you might think that she kind and helpful girl because the way she acts in public and helps my mom out. Also you might think that she is a kind sibling. But in reality that not who she is while she is home. When she is home she always on her phone and doesn’t really help with things and can be mean to my little brother. Even though this is a example of something that is good it's actually bad. In some situations bad can be good because the bad can help you get past things in your life or solve some things in your life. In the book freak the mighty by Rodman Philbrick give a great example of that.

To start off, the director did keep most of the characters looks and personalities the same in the movie as in the book. Some differences were that in the book Skeeter is big and tall, but the movie has her slender and average height, if not shorter. Hilly is portrayed in the book as a dark haired woman, whose weight increased throughout the timeline in the book, but in the movie, she is thin and stays that way through the whole movie. Also in the movie, Skeeter’s maid, Constantine, is shorter that Skeeter, although

Max learns tons of facts, how to read, write, and lots of other academic based stuff. In return, Max gives Kevin a way to explore the world on top of Max’s shoulders. It is in this way of “...walking high above the world”(40), that they go on adventures all over town. Max helped Kevin achieve his dream of being mobile and able-bodied by providing a way to explore the world on his shoulders. Kevin helped Max catch up to his appropriate grade by teaching Max how to read and then write. Philbrick starts the book with “I never had a brain until freak came along and let me borrow his for a while…” (1). This shows just how important Kevin helping Max was in the story. Max practiced reading and writing enough to move out of the L.D. (Learning Disabled) group, to be with Kevin, making the friendship even tighter. All of this goes to show how important, contributing to a relationship is in Freak the Mighty.

Finally there are lots of differences between the book and the movie. They also show that the movie was a lot weaker then then the book. I can see the movies aren't always better than the books.

Also when freak died he wasn't at the hospital in the movie. Also there are different names for the all the chapters.

And Freak is Maxwell's learning disabled teacher.

In chapters 6 and 7 of Philbrick’s thrilling novel, Freak the Mighty, two misfits that met in daycare, reunite in junior high and become courageous to overcome obstacles. Philbrick uses exquisite tone and mood to persuade strong character development, and help readers understand the character’s bond. Rodman Philbrick’s use of mood and tone show that two heads can be better than one. Maxwell and Freak are being approached by the town bullies, Tony D. also known as Blade, and his gang. Philbrick uses a tone of intimidation to exemplify Tony. Kevin confidently confronts Tony, “ Hey what!” And he moves right in front of Freak. “Want to say that again, little freak man.”

Another common scene between both the novel and the film is when Freak tells Max he’ll get a bionic body. When the two reach the New Testaments on a walk, Freak points to a building and says he’s getting his measurements for a bionic body. He swears he’s telling the truth, but it turns out he wasn’t-Freak would instead die. One final similarity is Loretta’s inspirational quote, which brought Max back up from the

Hey everybody, it's Haley! On Sunday I went to go see The 5th Wave, but before I start off, I'd like to mention that I also read the book. You know how everyone says, "The book is always better than the movie.", well it wasn't any better than the movie. In my opinion, the movie was just as good as the book, like seriously.
