Rating: 3/4 -- Whether you appreciate Gloria as a portrait of a vital woman, muddling through life's middle chapters, or as an allegory of Chilean resilience, the message is the same: Let's face the music and dance. Full Review

Rating: 8/10 -- There's less of an endgame than a scenario allowed to run its course. García is fantastic in the role with an attitude that refuses to stay quiet when something must be said. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- A smart, sensitive and bitterly funny romantic comedy, elegantly played out against the backdrop of a county whose political scars are still very much evident. Full Review

What truly makes the film riveting is Paulina García's performance as the title character -- and she appears in nearly every shot. With a wide, truly contagious smile, García exudes a lived-in confidence and control with every movement. Full Review

Rating: A -- It's an open-ended question whether Gloria ever finds the happiness she seeks while dodging the current of middle-aged isolation, but her constant search is a valiant and deeply involving one. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- We don't make movies in America like Gloria, so we have to import them. I wish we'd import more -- and make a few, as well. Full Review

One of the best Chilean films of the 21st century. [Full review in Spanish] Full Review
