Review of Gloria

Gloria (II) (2013)
6/10
True but boring
25 March 2014
I was enticed by the previews I had seen in Feb. - really wanted to see this movie. The good things - true portrayal of a lonely divorced woman seeking companionship and sex. A man who is looking for a caring woman but at the same time he is so tied with his family and not free to have a real relationship. the diagnosis of glaucoma did nothing for the movie except provide a reason for the eye drop scenes. The presentation of sex between the main characters was refreshing since it was real - and no body doubles. Cons: boring - slow - little joy - smoking (i know this is a foreign film but I really do not like smoking). I thought there would be more fun in this movie - mislead by the previews. However the scene towards the end where she returns his paint ball guns was priceless. I was disappointed by the film even thought it was true to life. It was not that entertaining.
