Hawk-31

Rupert Wainwright, the director of Stigmata, needs to learn that really dim lighting and non-stop rain does not equal "cool". Patricia Arquette, like all her acting siblings, is absolutely terrible.... This is one of the worst movies in years.

The 1999 remake of "Gloria", is an insult to the great John Cassavettes, who wrote and directed the original in 1980. Sidney Lumet proves that he is not even in the same league as Cassavettes. This new version completely lacks the energy and the intensity of the original. Ridiculous melodrama and overblown sentimentality is the only thing Sidney Lumet has to offer. And Sharon Stone's acting ability seems laughable when compared to Gena Rowlands, who originated the role in 1980. Rent the original and skip the remake. Make Cassavettes proud.
