   Aug 7, 2015 · Distrust and suspicion have entered their marriage, the snake in the garden. "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. Robyn's journey of confusion and terror is our own.

   Is 'the gift' a good movie?

   • With all of these elements, "The Gift" could have been a bad movie, and yet it is a good one because it redeems the genre with the characters. Blanchett's sanity and balance as Annie Wilson provide a strong center, and the other actors in a first-rate cast go for the realism in their characters instead of being tempted by the absurd.

   What is the gift based on?

   • It's like an invisible poison released into the atmosphere, working on everyone in unpredictable and terrifying ways. "The Gift" is similar to " Cape Fear ," or " Fatal Attraction ," or, in another way, "The Night of the Hunter" in that it shows a family unit threatened by an outside force (usually an individual with an ax to grind).

   Is Edgerton's 'the gift' a good movie?

   • The Gift is a very strong directorial debut for Edgerton. The Gift gives viewers a lot to mull over. It's smart, insidious, and extremely nasty. The Gift lacks either Fincher's talent for dense plotting or Hitchcock's elegance. Long passages in the middle seem repetitive, as Edgerton leans on jump-scares over and over.
