Review of Mama (2013) by Mitch H — 08 Jul 2013
This film puzzles me. The performances were solid, the writing clean, "Mama" was neither boring nor uneventful, but somehow it left me even keel... underwhelmed. More creepy and weird than scary, this film didn't live up to its genre in scares but far surpassed it in performances and writing.
Jessica Chastain appears to have deliberately added another character to her bio, by portraying a self-centered rocker chick and doing so in convincing fashion. A decent watch, but don't look forward to being terrified.
Generously -- not rotten.
