The Glorias Reviews

Mar 30, 2025

After seeing this movie for my first time in 2025, and then reading the reviews here, it’s fair to say this movie is more important than ever, right now. I’m especially surprised by some of the remarks left by women. How quickly we forget recent history. I encourage every female to watch this immediately, as a reminder. Your rights are not a guarantee. Nobody gave them to you. Your opinion would be mute, if not for the women before you, who fought you to have one. In this short two months, we are close to being set back 50 years of progress for females. I highly recommend every female young and old watch this biopic piece of history. I’m horrified by many of the reviews, but isn’t it nice to have the rights, to submit one, without being anonymous?

Of no interest at all - this can only relate to half the population - I don't care about the subject matter.

Vikander is a fav - but her portrayal of Steinem is borderline nauseating in The Glorias. Apart from Steinem being gross, the movie itself isn't terrible, but it's all over the place (ie animated segments)

Too simple and clean

Filme bom. Aborda tema de extrema relevância na sociedade moderna (XXI), igualdade de gênero + lutas sociais. Na minha visão (não profissional), pesaram um pouco a mão nas dinâmicas de flashback e diálogos entre Glórias, o que não chega a arranhar a narrativa como obra. Recomendo!

The acting is good the story worthy of a film, but the script seemed rushed and never quite came together.

This was told in an interesting manner. They jumped around a lot in time. At first that was confusing and rather annoying since the pattern seemed arbitrary. It slowly began to make some sense and was interesting. It was well acted. I'd recommend it.

Julie Taymor brings an artistic vision of an empowering woman with great direction I'm on her part and acting on all the Gloria actresses' parts.

So important. I recommend this to everyone. It's educational and inspiring.

This is a reflective movie of a woman during her lifetime where she is still trying to figure or has figured out who she is both from a personal and social viewpoint. Although this movie is about Ms. Steim's life, it leaves this impression of what womanhood is defined as. no matter race, gender, sexuality and more!

Excellent telling of the story of a woman and a movement that changed the world.

This is one of the best movies I saw for a while, a very relevant movie today. It's great the director and movie put women's right, black right, native American, Asian American, gay rights all together, it's human's right! It's a much holistic way to look at things, and what's going on today in the world. Julian Moore's speech at Catholic church is the most touching one, how in human history, men gradually alienate from nature, but make the church more isolated from nature and built hierarchy with white male God as the image, all the important female figures all became background. I believe in women's movement and the pro-choice. I can't believe it is still being discussed today. Human has the choice for his/her life, as long he/her is responsible for the the choice he/she made, no one should tell him/her otherwise. That is basic human right! I can't believe the low rating the movie gets. It's the message it's carry that's way more important than the format itself. Do u all get the messages?

This was not a movie, it was a pamphlet. (And I am a feminist and liberal and I actually stand behind everything that was in the film). Looked good, actors were great (although the accent Vikander did was weird) and the Wizard of Oz scene was great. I learned a lot about Steinem, so that's a good thing. But it was a badly edited cliff notes version of Steinhem's life with exposition instead of dialogue.

The Glorias has good intentions but is an overlong mess. The acting was great. Julianne Moore and Alicia Vikander were both very solid. I like the idea of having Gloria Steinem being portrayed by four different actresses. The execution of it is hit and miss. I liked the scenes where the different Glorias interacted with each other. There are also some nice visual flourishes courtesy of director Julia Taymor. But the film doesn’t always know how to balance all 4 performances. The first hour or so goes back and forth and is a mess. The second half becomes more focused, but not enough to make me give this a positive review. The film is also nearly two and a half hours long. Many scenes drag and run on for two long. Overall, I get the ambition, but the execution was pretty lackluster. The film was a disappointing mess. Moore, Vikander, and Steinem deserve better.

Julie Taymor is a master storyteller and always finds a new way to tell her story with creative visual surprises. It was also a treat to see Bette Midler play Bella Abzug.

Good movie, very informative about the womens movement, shows many ethnicities join together united for equality. 🙋😃

Excellent portrayal of the emergence of a movement and a living legend

I thought it was well done if unconventional. The bus ride with all the different ages of Steinem talking to each other was unique. An unusual approach and at times confusing. I did find the actors did a very good job. Julianne Moore was just perfect as always, LOVE HER! I did not know much about Steinem and it was very informative. It held my attention all the way through. Good Movie! One bowl of popcorn...

Really enjoyed it. Great acting and writing but maybe a little bit rosy. Didn't show any messy stuff. I like how the four different aged Gloria interweave.
