Even though the popularity and profitability of family-oriented films have always been strong, the variety offered is woefully thin. Superhero action, animation, and musicals comprise the vanilla-chocolate-strawberry choices, yet they almost always make for hefty returns because those are the only things offered. It isn’t often when something else that doesn’t fit neatly into any of these compartments comes out, and even rarer when it’s something as magnificent and mint pistachio as “Gifted.”
