(I never thought this review would be this long, too! So you have to bear with me.)

As I remember, two of my friends asked me to watch "The Gifted." I was very hesitant at that time since I'm not a fan of the Genre (which is suspense and thriller) and covers about school and geniuses too. Do you know what I mean? HAHAHA. This thing is absolutely out of my preferences. Don't give me headaches, please! (lol, kidding aside). I rejected them since I'm always into Drama, Romance, and Comedy. For, Binge-watching a series while having some stuff in school is not something that makes me comfortable and at ease. But guess what? I just found myself in one of the classroom's corners watching the first episode! Perhaps it takes 2-3 friends to make me hop onto it.

But my preferences blocked me from watching the third, so on and so fort episodes! I got bored. There were some times that I slept while watching episode 2. I don't know why; it made me yawn all the time! So, what I did was I put the series on hold and watched it again a couple of months later. And here, after completing the first season, I was left in shock, awe, and tears. IT'S REAL!

Let's start!
STORY: 10/10
The story was somehow implying the current education system today. Generally, It talks about inequality, injustices, and the presence of superiority and inferiority in the school. These things led the students (The gifted) to make plans towards making a healthy environment where they (including the regular students from other sections) can study with ease and comfort. They want to prove that who's last can be first. It is more showing students life experiences, whether good or bad, under the teachers, administrators, and school directors. But who would have thought that that plan could be so chaotic? Why? Watch it!

I bet students in this generation might be interested in it. Honestly, I've never seen this story before, so it's kind of new to me. Being said, I have no idea how the series goes. I couldn't think of any predictions about what would happen next or what would be the ending is all about. I was always just on the edge of the seat when I get back to it. Talking about the story as a whole, I can say that it's the best for me. The twists and revelations make plus points to the series. One thing that I also like is that the series was so engaging and made me wonder all the time. SUPERB!

ACTING/CAST: 9/10
I like how every gifted student has unique hidden potential that no one could ever think. It looks so cool to me. Throughout the series, I did not notice any bland or inappropriate actions. They performed well their respective roles (especially JJ) despite being not so old in the industry. Pang, Wave, and Namtarn were the best for me. It's nine/ten because there were small lapses I noticed (like the school was so big, but there were only 3-4 teachers and just a few students.) But I know It doesn't matter anymore considering that story alone is already a work of art.

MUSIC: 9/10
That was so intense! The opening music always gives me thrill and excitement, knowing that every scene is getting excellent. The effects were well executed.

REWATCH VALUE: 10/10
This time around, I will never be bored. After finishing the series, I think I could rewatch it over and over again with the same feelings and emotions. I'd love to see my family and friends watching it too!

Kudos to the directors and the entire team for the success of the first season. The Gifted: Graduation is out now!

Don't give it a try. You should watch it!
