while roger ebert was also happy with the casting of weaver as fossey ("it is impossible to imagine a more appropriate choice for the role"), he felt the character was too distanced from the audience and that her development and motives were unclear. ""gorillas in the mist" tells us what dian fossey accomplished and what happened to her, but it doesn't tell us who she was, and at the end that's what we want to know." however, ebert was impressed by the scenes with the gorillas and the way live footage of gorillas was seamlessly blended with gorilla costumes: "everything looked equally real to me, and the delicacy with which director michael apted developed the relationships between woman and beast was deeply absorbing. there were moments when i felt a touch of awe. those moments, which are genuine, make the movie worth seeing."
