    Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
    Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
    Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
    Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
    Torrin-McFinn77 Of all the short-lived cartoons I enjoyed, this one takes home the gold. Along with Road Rovers, Batman Beyond, and Godzilla: The Series, this stands up there with them. Each episode details an actual plot and a rather kick-ass theme, be it science-fiction, fantasy, action-adventure, or horror. And you know what? It worked.We get Rob Paulsen (of Animaniacs), Richard Moll (of Night Court), and the late but great Tony Jay (of Sierra's King's Quest VI and Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame) as the main characters. If any cartoon in this day and age deserves a reboot this should be on the list. A few years ago I watched some clips of the show on YouTube and it's just as good as I remember it. And the guest stars are so outstanding too. You've got Jim Cummings, Charles Adler, and even Tress MacNeille and Frank Welker. What a mix! And a little of Kath Soucie too. What else is there to say? Give it a chance. You might be pleasantly surprised.
    alpha-48 Mighty Max is a cartoon that both adults and kids alike can enjoy. The show is about Max, a pre-teen kid who suddenly finds himself in the role of a hero. The show has healthy doses of action, humor, and morality in every episode. Not only that, but it makes a great educational aide for geography, science, and mythology. All of the monsters and locations in the show are based on real civilizations or legends, and Max & crew travel all over the world to fight evil.In fact, I liked the show so much, I created my own website covering all things Mighty Max. It's called the Mighty Max Portal - feel free to look it up if you'd like to know more about this show and its characters.
    pleiam45-1 Mighty Max was my favorite show when I was in junior high. I think I first saw the show around '94 or '95. Good old memories they were. Max was a kids hero for his social skills, Norman for his cool wit and fast courageous strength, and Virgil for his wisdom. If this show comes out on DVD I will probably rent it, since acquiring material wealth is vain. Why should we acquire stuff since we are going to die? I think it has to do with the greatest and obviously the first lie ever conceived of, "Ye shall not surely die". This deception has been passed down generation to generation. And people live like death is a myth and then suddenly death comes upon them and then they feel betrayed (by themselves). Anyway, I see an abundance everyday of the vanity of humans and that their is only one person who can save them, but if they would only open their eyes to first see themselves for who they really are and where they are going and what needs to be done to correct the problem. Governments are the same way. What do they hope to gain by greed, envy, hate, murder, and lies. I say that they have the greater damnation seeing that it is better to do good than evil but choosing evil instead, and to gain what but death only. Every problem has a solution but to get the solution to the problem is indeed a supernatural act.
    morgaine-5 I began watching this show when I was in junior high. I taped a few episodes and, watching them now, I still enjoy them as much as ever. "Mighty Max" was one of the best cartoons, if not the best, ever, in my opinion. It was educational, exciting, funny and very well-done. It wasn't just a kiddie show about things getting blown-up. It was about the eternal struggle of good vs. evil, about growing up, about friendship and faith in yourself. I guess Max is, in a way, the part of each of us that is always a carefree kid. A very special kid, however. It was amusing and nice to have the fate of the world so often resting on a kid my age. I love this show, and I wish there was more about it around. I highly recommend it.
