Product Description

 
An enormous gorilla exhibits endless compassion and courage. In his native jungle he cares for and protects an orphaned girl who later brings him to Los Angeles to save him from ruthless poachers. However, once there, the man-made confines and threats from a new set of cruel and greedy trophy-hunters cause the otherwise gentle, but misunderstood, beast to totally flip out. Remake of the black and white classic.

Mighty Joe Young: My Students Went Ape Over Him

Date of Review:  Jun 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: The kids said the movie was "way cool." I guess that says it all.
Review: I'm an English teacher, and for the last day that I taught this year, I promised my students we could have a movie. Immediately, they started telling me what movies they wanted. Despite the fact that I told them I would be selecting a movie and I...

Mighty Joe Young ~ my kids wanted to give it a ten star rating!

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2007
The Bottom Line: I'm always looking for movies that the whole family can watch together and actually all enjoy. This one fit the bill nicely.
Review: Is there any group more evil than poachers? Not to a five and eight year old who know nothing more of the world than what they see in PG movies. After watching the 1998 Disney remake of Mighty Joe Young, dramaboy and dramagirl are quite convinced...

Format: DVD, Mighty Joe Young
In the classic tradition of heroic Disney adventures comes the extraordinary Mighty Joe Young--a thrilling story, full of excitement, friendship, courage and heart. The legendary Joe, a playful, smart fifteen-foot-tall gorilla, and his lifelong best friend Jill Young (Charlize Theron) have grown up together in the remote mountains of Central Africa. When Joe s peaceful existence is shattered by poachers, Jill and zoologist Gregg O Hara (Bill Paxton) rescue their innocent friend and move him to the safety of an animal conservancy in California. But Joe s safety is short-lived. No longer a myth, his notoriety makes him a target for an enemy from his past--a ruthless hunter who will do anything to capture the mighty Joe.

Format: DVD, Mighty Joe Young
On a farm in the heart of Africa, a gentle young girl name Jill Young lives happily with her orphaned playmate Joe, a Tanzanian gorilla. As the years cultivate the extrordinary bond between these two unlikely friends, Jill marvels not at Joe's gargantuan 15-foot-tall physique, rather it is Joe's benevolent temperment and capacity to love that astounds her the most. It is only when Joe is brought to civilization that he learns to regard the human race with antipathy.
