Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It's a concept that's more often the basis of arrested development comedies about late bloomers who finally come into their own, but there's nothing funny about how the past looms over the adults that Gordo and Simon have become.

The Gift chillingly illustrates what happens when fate reunites a class bully (Jason Bateman) with his prize victim, Gordo (Edgerton).

Clever and atmospheric, the film has enough twists to keep the average viewer guessing.

Officially, this is a blank-from-hell movie. But Edgerton has remixed the formula.

The Gift starts out like so many other thrillers before it - with an attractive, well-to-do couple purchasing a big new house - and then beats its own, uniquely tense and twisted path from there.
