Just what I expected

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Similar premise as the 2013 Czech film " honeymoon ", but not nearly as disturbing

Like nothing you have ever seen before,an eye for an eye..................... once in a lifetime film

It's like a really dark sequel to Arrested Development and you find out that Michael is really the most evil member of the Bluth family. Don't know what I mean, let me explain, well, this movie not Arrested Development, which is a great show, Ron Howard wanted me to spread the word. So we meet Simon and Robyn have just moved back to Simon's' hometown and are quickly recognized by Gordon, who seems very nice and pleasant and is nothing but kind to the couple. However Gordon and Simon are already acquainted from way back in the days of high school. And Gordon becomes overly attached and goes above and beyond making them comfortable, uncomfortable so. Unannounced visits, creepy gifts just left on the door step. So Simon finally says enough, get lost. Not before one last present with a note stating that he was sorry and wanted 'bygones to be bygones', and its that statement that gets Robyn saying, hmmm, is this not one sided. So she does a little digging and well, Simon may be a wicked douche, and everything that happens next may be a carefully planned out revenge of a bullied teenager, or it may not. Super creepy, written, directed by, and starring Joel Edgerton. Such a satisfying ending :) Good job Joel. Also starring Michael Bluth, oh I mean Jason Bateman, who I can see being a douche, he's good dont get me wrong, but theres a certain level of douche-baggery to him. And Rebecca Hall, who always does a great job playing emotional characters! Check this one out!https://www.facebook.com/filmbufftim

If you like a movie that constantly keeps you on the edge of your seat (in the psychological sense) and thinking, then you're gonna love this. Mystery and intrigue abound in The Gift, which at no time slows down or gives the viewer a break from the action. On top of a simply great story with all the trimmings that make for a good film, there's also a bit of a moral to take away. I don't often say it, but this one really is a must-see.
