    Hopefully she'll turn it around with Carrie.
    Don't count on it. I'm fairly lenient when it comes to critiquing cinematic portrayals but even I felt she was one note, unable to typify any nuances, or otherwise provide a solid performance.
    When God made Tom Cruise, he was only joking.

        It's not like she was given a whole lot to do, anyways. She did what she could with what she was given and that's that. It wasn't necessary to hire an actress with the talent of Meryl Streep to portray the character of Sue Snell.

                Agree. I was really let down by her performance (They should have permitted Julianne Moore to coach her onset. Moore obviously shined as she always does)

                    She is beautiful, but her performances have been nothing, thus far. Of course, one has to also note the script and direction an actor is given when talking performances into account, but she just hasn't shown any potential. And she looked awful in the Endless Love trailer too.

                      I haven't seen any movie with her. But I agree about that trailer.
                      What I say may sound a little mean, but I think that Gabriella is a clear example of someone who only has a career because of her look. She is incredibly beautiful!

                        She had material to work with in Carrie, so script isn't an excuse
                        The rest of the cast (except Judy Greer) also managed to give solid performances in Carrie, so it's not the direction
                        Gabrielle just cannot act.

                          I disagree. I think she can act. She performed well in Carrie. Can't wait to see her in Endless Love.

                            Acting involves things called "expression" and "emotion." Gabrielle delivered every single line in the same, flat, lifeless way. Where was the acting?

                              Disagree. I thought she did fine. Her character didn't really seem to have as much to do as the character in the '76 version, so.it's not necessary to have an actress with the talent of Streep or Hathaway to portray the character. She's a fashion model and an up-and-coming actress. I'm sure she'll improve over time, anyways.

                                  No, says someone who is entitled to their own opinion. You've been here since 1999 and you still can't1c84 accept a differing opinion without responding to it like a 15 year old?
                                  Grow up.
