Review of Mama (2013) by Nick O — 21 Jul 2013
Whoever said Jessica Chastain couldn't pull off punk-rock with flying colors just got their ass handed to them on a platter. The rest of "Mama" is passable fare, visually interesting (there's a dream sequence that really wows) but a script that wears stretch marks on its core relationship drama and chilly, woodsy concept.
But, you know. In January it's all Oscar holdovers and, apparently, D-grade Mark Wahlberg thrillers. So I guess "Mama" is decent enough schlock to stew on for 90 minutes.
