Gigi & Nate
audience Reviews
, 95% Audience Score- Rating: 1.5 out of 5 starsThere's too much emphasis placed on family values, becoming a Disney fairy tale loosely woven around the love bond between Nate and Gigi but not much else.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsHeartwarming movie. Definitely worth seeing. The beauty of connections between people and animals which is so real!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsVery good movie, heart warming and emotional journey. A must watch.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsWe loved this family friendly movie. We laughed, we cried. We really appreciated the life lessons, viewing life from multiple angles, feeling grateful for things we have and trying to understand another's perspective with true empathy. Parents, tissues are a must, prepare for meaningful chats, a few tears, giggles and extra appreciation of your munchkins and the life you have. What truly matters, love and compassion, value and balance for all, even if you don’t understand, try.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsLoved this movie! Great acting all around especially by Charlie Rowe. I needed a few tissues. 😀
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsA heartwarming movie with a lovely message. I thought all of the actors gave great performances and all had great chemistry.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsI'm not one to leave reviews on movies, however it's been a year since I saw Gigi and Nate and it's still stuck with me since then. The film received a lot of criticism for reasons I'll never understand. Though, as someone who's disabled and thus has a service animal like the one of the titular characters, Nate Gibson, I found this movie to be both inspiring and motivating. The dynamic between Nate and his family is heartwarming, and so is his unforgettable bond with Gigi. 10/10, would give more stars if I could.
- Rating: 2.5 out of 5 starsA predictable movie about the connection between a quadriplegic and his service animal. It wants itself to be inspiring, emotional and a bit political about how the animals should be treated. But it just meanders through a variety of these subjects without really making an impression on any front. There were a few effective moments but that would be more due to simply the subject matter and some actors doing great with what they got. There's a lot I enjoyed in it but at the same time, it was also boring as a whole. It felt like it touched upon a lot of stuff that could have been explored more to make a better film but was afraid to go deep and just touched all those stuff on the surface and moved on. Considering this is not exactly a true story, it's amusing that both the main events are implied to happen due to the same girl who just comes in at that point just for that and not really even mentioned how much she has a part in this.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsA good family film that everyone will enjoy.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 starsDid you know that most primate pets are neglected and live lonely, depressed lives? I did not take a primatology class in college, but I do know that primates belong with other primates and NOT humans! Monkeys have special behavioral and social needs that cannot be satisfied by humans. A monkey as a social service animal is a a very miserable one. I do understand that this is fiction, but lots of kids will watch this and get the wrong message. This movie should have been about Nate saving Gigi, not the reverse.
