Jonás es un chico de doce años que vive en una sociedad, basada en la Monotonía y la Igualdad, que ha conseguido eliminar el dolor y los sentimientos. Jonas es seleccionado como "Receptor de la Memoria"; su misión consiste en almacenar todos los recuerdos de la época anterior a la implantación del régimen de la Monotonía. Ese depósito de la memoria podría ser necesario en caso de que los líderes necesitaran tomar decisiones en las que la experiencia fuera un factor decisivo. Muy pronto Jonas se dará cuenta de lo superficial que es la vida en su comunidad.
The Giver Ratings & Reviews
- Dave29 de enero de 2025Good movie, the concept is very interesting but I feel like the story was rushed.
- flavo436 de diciembre de 2025The Giver (2014) attempts to bring Lois Lowry’s beloved novel to life, but the translation to screen feels uneven. The story’s profound themes of memory, individuality, and freedom are present, yet the film struggles to fully capture their depth within its limited runtime. Some narrative issues remain underdeveloped, leaving the emotional weight of the source material diluted. Visually, however, the movie is inspiring: the gradual shift from monochrome to color is a striking metaphor for awakening, and the cinematography often conveys a sense of wonder. The performances, led by Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep, lend gravitas, but the overall execution doesn’t quite elevate the film beyond its surface appeal. While it introduces younger audiences to the novel’s ideas, The Giver ultimately feels like it needed more time and nuance to truly resonate. It’s a thoughtful attempt, but not a definitive adaptation.

- JandTMedia4 de marzo de 2026A lovely depiction of a fight between Humanism and Machiavellianism. Maybe not the best adaptation of all time, and the book is definitely better, but this is a thoroughly enjoyable film and beautifully communicates what it means to be human.
- Osman wahidi2 de febrero de 2026I thought I hit the jackpot because it's not usually free, but the sound doesn't work and it's black and white 😭
- Neon Ghloes29 de enero de 2026The book is truly awful. The film follows suit. BRAVO! For once... A movie that keeps with the feeling that the book gives you. Fantastic!
