Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Making this movie represented a rather risky venture for Mel Gibson--it was his first effort at directing, and the role demanded that he deliberately obscure his sexy matinee-idol looks. Gibson seems to truly relish his Lon Chaney Jr.-esque turn as Justin McLeod, a reclusive former teacher with half his face and body badly scarred, and a dark, secret past. The folks in McLeod's postcard-pretty Maine town have dubbed him "Hamburger Head" and exchange malicious gossip about him. But one boy is needy enough to dare to penetrate the fortress McLeod has built against the outside world. Fatherless Chuck Norstadt (Nick Stahl) is so anxious to escape his dysfunctional family that he pesters McLeod into becoming his mentor. Their relationship for the most part avoids the sort of sticky sentimentality one might expect from Hollywood. Chuck is a real, credible kid, a petulant pain with a chip on his shoulder, and McLeod is no Mr. Chips. It's fun, and quite moving, to watch these two cranky misfits battle their way toward a friendship that will change both their lives. Margaret Whitton (Major League) gives an unaffected performance as Chuck's narcissistic mother. "I'm just not cut out for this mothering racket," she tells her rudderless children, as she flits from man to man. Gibson's own personal code of honor, we suspect, is very much in evidence in this movie's message: One must take responsibility for what one wants in life. --Laura Mirsky

I really enjoyed this film because it told the all important lesson that we all must learn: do not judge. Jesus said it, the catholic church teaches it, and western civilization would be a lot better if we all practiced it. When we all walk by people everyday we must never presume to know what they are going through. This movie had a profound impact on my life, and taught me that nothing is ever as it seems. It also shows all of us what we could learn if we open up to the right people and let them ... Read More

The Man Without a Face starring and directed by Mel Gibson is a superb drama with a little bit of comedy thrown in. Gibson's performance is so strong and intense, I couldn't take my eyes off of him. Nick Stahl is also excellent and I think this was his feature film debut if I am correct, glad he continues to act today. This film deals with an unlikely friendship in a narrow-minded town, I really enjoyed this film from beginning to end. I highly recommend it!!

This is a really good movie and I think one of Mel's best. Although he appears disfigured in this movie, it is a great chance to really see him act. This movie is very well made and is thought provoking. It is not done in typical fashion either, meaning that the end is left wide open for you to draw your own conclusion as to the future of the characters.
The best lesson of this movie is - don't judge a book by it's cover, or even better still - don't judge.

Gibson directed and starred in this very interesting tale of a young boy and a man with a facial scar and a mysterious part. This is also the debut for Nick Stahl as the young boy. His acting ability is evident here to lead him to such roles as John Connor in Terminator 3.
Based on a true story, the film evidently leaves out some lurid details. Two top actors.

This is very touching film about the human nature, we can see the good and bad things that as humanas we can do.
This film shows how a kid with many problems, got the streng to overcome his problems thanks to one of the most important things in the world: friendship.
In this times when "adults are afraid to be friends of young people", this movie make us to remember, how the friendship is not limited by the age, and how the prejudices and ignorance can destroy a positive ... Read More
