Top Critics Reviews

Gena Rowlands is excellent as the tired woman who decides to take her chances for the boy. The kid is a right blend of understanding and childish tantrums.

John Cassavetes clearly set out to make a commercial film, but, intransigent personality that he was, he turned in a slice of pure avant-garde.

It's clear from the opening montage that we're in the hands of a master.

More than any other recent film I can think of, Gloria is a movie that depends on the mood you're in when you see it.
