Pretty Good

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Joel Edgerton wrote, directed and acted in this dark mystery-drama and pretty much hit it on every front. It really is disturbing not so much from what you see, but from the right amount of suspense and not revealing too much.Having said that, you need to be in the right mood to see this movie--modern film noir.

The Gift is an awesome thriller. The suspense it builds up with the great direction and storyline is amazing. The proper timing, sound effects, everything is so perfect that this thriller can even scare you more than a creepy creature of a horror movie might fail to do. Acting is really good too, cinematography is gorgeous, and the movie will throughout hold the attention till the very end. Also, best part is how wisely this movie delivers a great message without losing the quality of entertainment. It shows the relationship and a life of a couple closely, but more than that it shows how the little things of past, that we think are little things can have very big consequences sometimes. Overall, I really loved this movie and recommend it.

I went in with the lowest expectations after having watched the trailer to this movie which makes it seem like a really corny horror movie (whoever was in charge of marketing needs to be fired because i would have actually seen this in theaters if it was marketed appropriately). Its not a corny horror movie at all! its definitely one of the best psychological thrillers I have ever seen. I was writing a few business emails at the time so i put it on as background noise (assuming it was going to be stupid) but i immediately started paying attention when things started getting complicated, which is relatively quickly.I know this will expire soon, but its on netflix as of 5/20 and definitely deserves a watch.

I gave the movie a 9/10 just for the fact that they leave you on a cliff.I just want to know if the baby is Gordo's or Simon's!!! This movie had my feeling all sorts of emotions throughout and it was very well told. I would highly recommend this movie.All in all. Don't be a Simon.
