Review of Mother (2010) by Brianmccritic — 16 Sep 2017
You will leave this film thinking Aronofsky is a genius or a pretentious crazy man, for me it was the former. Don't go into this film looking for any type of mainstream conventional film, if you do you will probably leave early.
What we get is a master craftsman providing a riveting, thought provoking gem of a film. I love the feel and atmosphere of the first two thirds. You feel uneasy while still being uncertain of exactly what's going on.
The final act will likely make or break the film for you. For me my jaw was wide open as I sat up in my seat awestruck and trying to contemplate everything on the screen. No question it needs multiple viewings to get everything, but Darren Aronofsky has given us an immersive thought provoking film you won't soon forget.
