Mother!

Mother!
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 out of 5

Brilliant, yet confusing. I literally had to google the meaning and still don't understand it. The pace of the movie rapidly changed (uncomfortably so) and left a lot of questions.

What started as a psychological thriller full of suspense ended in a barrage of psychedelic symbology that leaves you going "huh?". I refuse to say the movie is bad simply because I haven't been able to interpret the meaning. They did a great job triggering my anxiety and tastefully delivered gruesome imagery that is often over the top or sadistic.

My guess is most people will have a strong opinion one way or another about the film - either they'll enjoy it for what it's worth, or completely hate it and want their money back.
