The Gift Ratings & Reviews
ayayron
February 15, 2025
One of the most likable guys in Hollywood plays a real dbag
New York Daily News
Katherine Pushkar
Edgerton seems to have pulled "The Gift" right out of a time capsule from 1992.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Just when we think we know where The Gift is going, we're surprised. And then surprised again.
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
The Gift chillingly illustrates what happens when fate reunites a class bully (Jason Bateman) with his prize victim, Gordo (Edgerton).
The Playlist
Katie Walsh
The true star of "The Gift" is Joel Edgerton as director. His deft, control of plot, character, style, and tone is damn near perfect - even if it is in service of a very standard genre piece.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
"The Gift" uses the tricks of the thriller trade well, but why it really works is that it withholds the necessary information until almost the very end.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
It touches on notions of trust, the male ego and forgiveness, but Edgerton doesn't overturn any new stones.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
It concludes with one of the most repugnant turns this side of a '60s-era exploitation "roughie," a "twist" so vile it pretty much cancels out the considerable skill and accomplishment of what's preceded it.
BuzzFeed News
Alison Willmore
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.
Grantland
Wesley Morris
Officially, this is a blank-from-hell movie. But Edgerton has remixed the formula.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
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.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
[An] expertly crafted exercise in guilt, ambiguity and revenge.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
One of the many gifts conferred by The Gift is the unaccustomed pleasure of feeling like putty in the hands of a first-rate storyteller.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Edgerton -- who also wrote The Square and the story for The Rover -- exploits Bateman's smarty-pants persona to chilling effect; he's the rare triple threat who's more valuable behind the camera than in front of it.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Mirroring the seeming randomness of the universe, The Gift is borderline sublime in its ability to both confound expectations and fuel nightmares. Well played on all counts, Joel Edgerton.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
At heart this is a three-character chamber piece. And Bateman, Hall and Edgerton are three very interesting actors showcased in a confident directorial debut.
Entertainment Weekly
Kevin P. Sullivan
More than anything, Edgerton's script and direction demonstrate a keen understanding of tension and what puts an audience on edge.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
A disturbing drama that twists its outsider-from-hell story into something more unique and unexpected than its marketing campaign might imply.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"The Gift" stretches things a little too much for it to be a first-rate thriller. Still, among second-rate thrillers, it's one of the best.
Arizona Republic
Barbara VanDenburgh
It's a confident thriller suffused with dread that builds suspense without breaking until it's too late to turn back - with a few jump scares thrown in for good measure.
