Movie Reviews

  • what should be a three-hankie, ugly-cry tearjerker feels unnuanced, overplotted, and mechanical. Frank and Mary deserved better
    Review rate : C by Chris Nashawaty [Entertainment Weekly ]
  • the movie is a bit of a crock - a stacked-deck family drama that's all bits and pieces stuck together out of a screenwriter's handbook. It's watchable, and Webb stages it with polish and taste, but in a larger sense he gets swallowed again
    by Owen Gleiberman [Variety ]
  • the film is decidedly emotionally manipulative without being cloying, and often finds real humor in the complicated situation that arises around a genius 7-year-old
    3 of 5 by Brian Truitt [USA Today ]
  • Evans and Grace are exceedingly appealing together, and their charming chemistry keeps the film afloat even when it doesn't seem to know which direction to move in
    Review rate : C+ by Kate Erbland [Indiewire ]
  • despite its recycled tropes, the comedy-drama manages to be both funny and moving even if its emotional manipulations are fully apparent
    by Frank Scheck [Hollywood Reporter ]
  • "Gifted" finds a collective of competent people making a perfectly competent movie - nothing more, nothing less
    by Sam Fragoso [The Wrap ]
