I knew I was going to like this but it was better than I was expecting. Chris Evans is just that good. Jenny Slate is who I thought I was gonna be as a teacher when I was 17.

Review by Joel Hilke ★★★★

Checked out the new movie Gifted last night, an utterly charming and sweet movie about an uncle taking care of his sister’s little girl who happens to be a genius. I saw the trailer a number of times but it looks like the movie was dumped without much more advertising and even fewer reviews.
It stars Chris Evans (with a beard so he doesn’t look like Captain America) in a very good performance and the little girl is a combination of sweet and sour that’s charming and hilarious. Her mother, a math genius, died seven years ago and Evans took custody of her and moved from New England to Florida to make sure she has a normal life. Things quickly…

Review by Sherr ★★★★

To be honest, the only reason I watched this movie is because my grandmother finished the MCU movies and is now in love with Chris Evans. So yeah, going in, I didn't know much about the movie, but I came out of it with tears in my eyes and warmth in my heart. This movie turned out to be better than I had expected, and I'm really glad I watched it. It revolves around the fight for the custody of a gifted child, between her maternal uncle and maternal grandmother. The uncle, played brilliantly by our Captain America, wants his niece to have a normal childhood in spite of her superior mathematical abilities. I am so happy the movie doesn't…

Chris Evans as a hot uncle? YES.
