Review of The Gift (2015) by Robert W — 07 Oct 2015
This has acceptable basic sentiments against bullying. Opening on the real estate theme, It is guaranteed an audience among those about whom it is talking - the ambitious, white middle class. It continues stylishly, with plenty to observe in fashion and decorating choices.
The characters, good and bad, are all clean, fit-looking, well dressed and softly spoken. The script, direction and editing are rather slow and clunky, but not fatally so. It would have got an extra star except that films should not depict animal cruelty, because it is not possible to tell whether it was faked or not.
