[Julianne Moore] is always terrific, but she gives an especially terrific, well-rounded performance here. It's nuanced, vulnerable, strong, funny, emotionally rich and textured.

A well-observed, good character study, although something that you may have seen before.

Gloria Bell is somewhat exhausting - both unbearably intimate and at a constant remove - but it is endlessly pulled back into focus by Moore.

Gloria Bell deserved much more happiness behind the camera and on the page to make this something truly worth dancing for.
