What a great performance
Maggie was spectacular in this.
shareAgreed. Maggie Gyllenhaal gave a remarkably strong and moving performance as the troubled Sherry.

Yeah, she was pretty good, but the movie sucked. Talk about BORING!
She gave a great performance, but was a terrible mother.
shareI hope you mean that Maggie Gyllenhaal gave a great performance, but that Sherry Swanson was a terrible mother!
The point is, surely, that she's a very mixed-up girl, a heroin addict trying to stay clean who, as she says when applying for a job, "wants to be a better mother". Just to dismiss her as "a terrible mother" is to miss the point of the whole story.
