Gifted Reviews
Observer
Rex Reed
A formulaic and manipulative tearjerker that is really nothing more than a woman's picture from a man's point of view.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
The film's heroine is extraordinarily gifted. The film itself, not so much.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
As scripted, Evelyn is too vicious to be persuasive, and Flynn undercuts her morally by stressing her lust for recognition.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
"Gifted" is an engaging comedy-drama that avoids becoming too much of a tearjerker.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
Gifted may not have anything particularly enlightening to say about raising a precocious child, but as a tear jerker/crowd pleaser, it more than gets the job done.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Gifted won me over, body and soul, and the only thing I wanted to do when it came to an end was to find a way to watch it again right that very second.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Gifted is a charming, deeply human film, so much so that complaining about its often well-trod plot points strikes me as downright curmudgeonly.
Chesapeake Family Magazine
Roxana Hadadi
The central question of Gifted is handled without much nuance, and while the film pulls on heartstrings, the clumsy storytelling lacks impact.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Evans' sensitive, deeply affecting performance and genuine chemistry with McKenna Grace as his brilliant niece are so honest that it captivates us.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
A good-hearted entertainment that manages its plot curveballs, and everything else, with a show of compassion.
Consequence
Allison Shoemaker
It's a feel-good film that honestly feels good, and even when it rings a bit hollow, it doesn't stay that way for long.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Virtually no one involved appears to have remembered what human or human-adjacent behavior should feel like, scene to scene.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
Movies like Gifted often drift into a quagmire of manipulation and over-the-top histrionics. For the most part, however, Webb avoids this path.
TheWrap
Sam Fragoso
Gifted finds a collective of competent people making a perfectly competent movie -- nothing more, nothing less.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Gifted isn't the best or most sophisticated or most original film of the year so far - but it just might be my favorite.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
"Gifted" is a clever, if less than brilliant film. Like Mary, its true genius lies not in what's on the page, but in its humanity.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Emily Yoshida
Unfortunately, Gifted's cutesy classroom scenes are not quite up to the task of digging into how Mary fits in with her classmates, and the film quickly gives way to increasingly caricatured depictions ...
Pajiba
Kristy Puchko
This fantastic family drama is so alive with humor, spiked with human hurt, and glowing with charm that it's impossible to fault it for the occasional overzealousness.
Associated Press
Jocelyn Noveck
The sensitive performances here deserved a better vehicle.
New York Times
Nicole Herrington
What's in a child's best interest? It depends on who's answering the question. That's the crux of "Gifted," the director Marc Webb's return to small-scale features after tangling with spidey.
