Not everything is as it seems
So…Mother! was interesting. I think. The aesthetics were pleasing, a beautiful house, an idyllic setting, the colours, the textures. A place where a lot of hard work had gone into crafting it. But underneath the beauty lay something you couldn’t quite put your finger on. A jarring sensation that something was out of sync.
Mother!
In a seemingly idyllic home, a couple’s calm life is interrupted by guests who bring chaos and destruction. A writer with a severe case of writer’s block and a wife carefully rebuilding their home after a fire with love and attention to detail. The more chaos that comes to the home the easier he finds it to be creative and the more difficult her life becomes.
Starring Jennifer Lawrence (The Hunger Games, Joy), Javier Bardem (Skyfall, No Country For Old Men), Ed Harris (Westworld, Appaloosa), Michelle Pfieffer (What Lies Beneath, Murder on the Orient Express), Brian Gleeson (Assassin’s Creed, Logan Lucky), and Domhnall Gleeson (Ex Machina, Star Wars: The Last Jedi).
Mother! Review Conclusion
I might have to watch it again just to understand: – WTF was that? It seemed like a dream, those where you find a strange little door that’s difficult to get through. And the way things changed so suddenly and strangely. And there was that picture that suggested he was the devil and not a poet. Was it the devil experimenting with replicating the story of Jesus for his own benefit? Were the two brothers meant to be Cain and Able? Perhaps my palette was not sophisticated enough to understand the intricacies of this story, for I felt I did not understand the why.
