It all depends on your tolerance for Sharon Stone. Now that little guy was the real thing, seemed like he had lived all his life in the barrio. Gloria (1999) R 01/22/1999 (US) Drama, Action, Thriller, Crime 1h 48m User Score. Gloria feels that the murder of a child is a step further than she can deal with and takes him and the disk. Typical and predictable with way too much that we have seen before.

Her fans will recognize her best as the great piece she is, during the first scenes, when she leaves the pen in NJ.

| Tarantino’s "Grindhouse" to be Funny and Real In the original, Gloria is indeed a former gun moll, kind of ballsy but classy, never really hard-edged; here, as written, she's little more than a cheap, hard floozy. Will she leave the kid in an upstate Catholic school where he will get good care, education and A LIFE?

However neither Sharon Stone in the role of the woman who develops maternal love for the boy nor Jean-Luke Figueroa in the role of the little boy suddenly orphaned and becoming sentimentally attached to her, are very convincing indeed and that's the weakest part of the movie. I can think of other Stone films where the story was one I understood and liked better, for instance, Sliver.

It is an adaptation of the 1945 George Orwell novel of the same name. Sometimes he reveals himself as a spoiled, very Americanized kid who has never seen the inside of a ghetto in his life. Was this review helpful? Remember John Adames, the kid from the original? I absolutely adore the original film; I think it's exciting, moving, thrilling storytelling. Big thanks to John Cassavetes, Steve Antin, Sidney Lumet, and all crew for the creation of Gloria. | Rating: 1/5 Drama, September 7, 2011

The filmmaker got the raspberries he deserved for trying to outdo Cassavetes's somewhat charming throwaway pic without offering any improvements.

Whoa, Keanu I often felt as if I was watching a very current film, directed by Hitchcock. Your AMC Ticket Confirmation# can be found in your order confirmation email.

Still, it's so apparent she's trying so hard that, throughout, you can't help but feel for her, a feat helped by the fact that she is obviously the only cast member who tries to create a character, though as written it's still the "hooker with a heart of gold" type, which is NOT the case with the 1980 film. There are two things I liked a lot about this movie. Was this review helpful? December 6, 2005 Rent the original and skip the remake. I won't see this one seven times, like Sliver, but I'll see it again. Just leave us a message Please reference “Error Code 2121” when contacting customer service.You're almost there! Noticeably gone is that sweeping, dramatic score for the original, which added a sense of sadness and later, a sense of hope for Gloria and her young companion. Viewing it again, I can see it doesn't stand the test of time as well as I thought it would. Bonnie Bedelia (as Stone's sister) and George C Scott (looking very ill, as a Mafioso head) are featured in small supporting roles but are essentially wasted. Sharon Stone was Gloria, gorgeous, and the film was glorious. March 20, 2019
