Michael Dequina
It is highly doubtful, though, that Stone will duplicate Rowland's double nomination, for the film overall is much less effective than she is. Although the film had been sitting on Sony's shelf for a year, and the studio opted not to screen it for...read the complete Gloria (1999) review at Michael Dequina

Gloria, directed by respected director Sidney Lumet and adapted by Steve Antin from the 1980 screenplay by John Cassavetes, was not screened in advance for critics, almost always a sign that the studio isn't behind the picture. After seeing it in a...read the complete Gloria (1999) review at Steve Rhodes

A tough white "broad" (in Gloria's own words) and
little Latino boy adventure through a "B" movie.
Gloria (Sharon Stone) is released from prison after
serving three years for her no-good boyfriend Kevin....read the complete Gloria (1999) review at Hollywood Report Card (Ross Anthony)

It is what it is another Sharon Stone classic. I really like Gena Rowlands as an actress however, I think Sharon Stone did a better job at portraying Gloria. I really like the part when she comes home after being released from jail and the scene with her ...

I thought everything about this was excellent. I found it to be extremely touching at a deep level. I'm not really sure what movie the people who reviewed this negatively watched. I thought that Sharon Stone's performance in this was outstanding. The ...

Sharon Stone and Jeremy Northam are outstanding in this movie. Their performance is absolutely fantastic. Not only does Sharon take on Jeremy but also finds the courage within herself to rescue a little boy who finds out that both of his parents were ...

I have read the other reviews on this rendition ...

Okay, so Sharon Stone isn't Gena Rowlands, but hey she never pretended to be and her rendition of gangster's moll Gloria is a pretty good 1999 remake with a few changes that help rather than hinder the plot. I have to admit that the original film is ...

Sharon Stone has proven that she is capable of handling any acting role! But it is up to us to go with what ever character type we like most. Here we see her as a caring woman after she gets cheated by her gang and rescues a child to whom she became a ...

Movies which are remakes, such as Gloria, can make things difficult for yours truly. My first instinct is to compare them to the original. Then I realize that, more often than not, most of my readers haven't seen the original, unless it's famous, like ...

One of the worst films ever. I don't know why such a movie must be made. May be studios don't know how to spend their money. Sharnon Stone's character as a mother is very, very riduclous. It isn't worth watching even one time. ...

While the original Gloria may not be one of my favorite movies, it was very good. Gena Rowlands was amazing in the role. Those are tough shoes to fill and Sharon Stone completely failed.There is absolutley no chemistry between Sharon Stone and the kid. ...
It's amazing how some people gave this movie 5 stars. I could only watch it for 10 minutes - that's how bad it is. I wish I could give it 0 stars. Sharon Stone is the queen of all bad actresses. And can she shut up already about her high IQ and how smart ...
