Sigourney Weaver gives a fine performance in an otherwise stilted bio pic.

Not particularly ambitious and not particularly invested in its subject matter, Gorillas in the Mist is an interesting enough story about a fascinating woman with a strong performance from Weaver to anchor the whole thing down.

Slow and ultImately Uninteresting story, although weaver gives a good performance.

First of all, Sigourney Weaver is TERRIFIC in this film. A great performance. Unfortunately the screenplay leaves a lot to be desired. I'd say it's worth watching just to see how Weaver makes so much out of such a poorly written role, but there's also a terribly uninteresting and poorly handled romance that takes up a good part of the film. Overall, not impressed, except for Weaver, who really is great.

I've seen this exactly once back when it came out and based on memory I liked it.
