![]() ![]() The last main character is Evelyn ( Lindsay Duncan) who is Frank Adler’s mother. Bonnie is extremely shocked when Mary answers a math problem that Bonnie did not know the answer to without a calculator. She’s a warm, nice teacher who loves her students, except for one. Then Mary’s teacher, Bonnie ( Jenny Slate), comes on-screen. She knows something bad will happen since Mary is going to your common grade school. Frank believes that it is time for her to go to a regular school after being home-schooled for sometime, but Mary, like the common high school and college student, does not want to go.Īfter Frank drops off Mary, we briefly get to know Octavia Spencer‘s character, Roberta Taylor, who is their fun, outgoing, worried neighbor. Within the first scene, you know that she is different from a “normal” seven-year-old because of the words and tone she uses. Mary has an extraordinary IQ for that of a seven-year-old and has an adopted one-eyed cat named Fred. We are introduced to Frank Adler ( Chris Evans) who is the guardian/uncle of Mary Adler ( Mckenna Grace) and is a free lancer that works on boats in Florida. All-in-all it is a cheerful movie and well-coordinated. The mother-son relationship of Chris Evans’ and Lindsay Duncan’s characters is sad and more than likely happens to some people. It may not be action packed but it is somewhat of a tear-jerker. It almost seems realistic in that I assume somewhere there is a gifted child whose IQ is phenomenally high for his or her age and how people struggle for custody over their child. It is a smaller movie that people do not know exists, and I hope this reaches other people. Gifted is the best movie I have seen this year! It is a movie that I have never seen before, and this originality seems to be fading away. 10/10, A+, 5/5 Geek Motivation (Great movie, leaves viewer satisfied) ![]()
