Review of mother! (2017) by Ellory%20 P — 02 Jun 2018

Its easy to understand why this film didnt do well in the box office, it was brutal and unconfortable and deeply saddening but its not a horror movie. But those are the things that make it such an amazing and clever film, it was art.

We are all house invaders who disrespect our mother earth and use and abuse religion, and the most disturbing scene was in my eyes the cleverest because you get to see a well known religious story from a whole new angle, and thats an unconfortable truth.

I hope in the long term it can be (for want of a better word) a "cult classic" and not put the studios off investing in such clever and thought provoking films. Because in an era saturated with f**king super heroes and otther such easy money cash cows this was a breath of fresh air.

Amazing amazing work by all involved.
