Here's my reaction and review of "The Institute" Episodes 1 and 2 on MGM+. I’ll breakdown the creepy details and let you know if this show, adapted from the Stephen King novel, is worth your time. From #MGMPlus: "The Institute" follows the story of teen genius Luke Ellis (Freeman), who is kidnapped and awakens at The Institute, a facility full of children who all got there the same way he did and who are all possessed of unusual abilities. In a nearby town, haunted former police officer Tim Jamieson (Barnes) has come looking to start a new life, but the peace and quiet won’t last, as his story and Luke’s are destined to collide.Executive Produced By: Stephen King, Jack Bender, Benjamin Cavell, Gary Barber, Sam Sheridan, Ed RedlichDirected By:Jack BenderCast: Mary-Louise Parker, Ben Barnes, Joe Freeman, Simone Miller, Fionn Laird, Hannah Galway, Julian Richings, Robert Joy, Martin Roach
