Gifted Movie Review

So I just finished watching the movie Gifted for the first time, and I know I'm a bit late on reviewing this one. I wanted to see it in theaters but I didn't really get the chance to.
Anyways, I honestly thought that the movie was pretty good. The actors did a great job and the young girl just reenforces what I said when I asked when did child actors become amazing? Because the young actress in this film does a really good job overall.
The story follows a young girl who is a math genius, and she lives with her uncle, but her grandmother wants to take her away from him.
In a way the plot is simple enough, but it is done in a way that is really enjoyable. Granted the movie is not perfect, but it is more of a feel good movie, and every once and awhile I do enjoy watching a film like this one.
The camera work was really good. The lighting fit the tone of the film perfectly. Yet the music wasn't as good as I thought it could be, but please don't get me wrong, it's good music, I'm just not planning on buying the soundtrack.
Overall the story is simple and enjoyable enough that it is worth watching at least a few times, and I would recommend checking this one out.


final score: 3.5/5

Coda Movie Review

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was  phenomenal, the  cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
