The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

The Gifted, Season 1 (2017)

Starring: Amy Adams, Stephen Moyer, Sean Teale, Jamie Chung, Natalie Alyn Lind, Percy Hynes White, Hayley Lovitt, Coby Bell, Elena Satine, Blair Redford, Emma Dumont, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Garret Dillahunt

Premise:
The mass public as turned on mutants scared of their powers. A prosecuting attorney is forces to seek the help of the underground mutant network he has helped put into jail after his teenagers mutant abilities come to the surface.

My Take:
Most of the first season was more enjoyable than not, despite the obvious correlation to the groups mutants represent in today's reality. The show is at it's best when it heightens the family drama and lays off the political side. The cast is solid as well.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Hulu / ABC
