More Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for The Gifted Season 2 All Critics (11) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (9) | Rotten (2) The interesting thing about The Gifted is that both sides of the mutant faction want the same thing. They just go about it in wildly different ways. Sep 27, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review… Maii Trueba de Buen Tell-Tale TV Top Critic Holds up a broken mirror to the real-world and serves as a thought-provoking, cautionary tale in the best tradition of X-Men. Nov 12, 2018 | Full Review… John Orquiola ScreenRant The mutants of The Gifted are on their own, free to chose a path toward peace or vengeance, or find something messier in between. There are many roads to revolution, but how many make for real change? Sep 27, 2018 | Full Review… Joshua Rivera GQ But for some reason, this time, seeing it all reflected in a mutant fiction feels unsettling. The story The Gifted is capable of telling is so close to reality that it makes me not want the diluted, fictional version anymore. Sep 27, 2018 | Full Review… Tori Preston Pajiba The concept of family is what's really going to define The Gifted over the coming months and, knowing this cast of characters, it's going to lead to a more than interesting season of television. Sep 27, 2018 | Full Review… Charles Pulliam-Moore io9.com As it was last season, it looks like The Gifted is determined to paint its main conflict in shades of grey. Oct 3, 2018 | Full Review… Christian Holub Entertainment Weekly Top Critic The key, and what seems to be the way the Underground would go, would be to show humans that mutants are just like them. Show them there's no need to be afraid. Sep 26, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review… Kim Russell TV Fanatic Some of the changes here are largely superficial and temporary. Sep 26, 2018 | Full Review… Kevin Yeoman ScreenRant The birth of Lorna's baby and the chaos of bringing a new mutant into the world presented us with an interesting entry point for the season. Sep 26, 2018 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Matt Fowler IGN Movies The show immediately plants the seed that Lorna and Andy don't belong here, that they're not safe. Not truly. It's an easier story to tell, sure, one that has a built-in happy ending; it's just not a particularly nuanced one.
