Horrible movie. GREAT DVD features.

Rating: 2/10 (13 January 2018)

I made the mistake of watching this movie knowing nothing about it. Two hours later, I thought, "What an absolute piece of garbage."
Then I did some research. Turn out that it's an allegory. I don't like allegorical paintings, and apparently, I don't like allegorical movies any better.
Javier Bardem is God, Jennifer Lawrence is Gaia / Earth / Mother Nature, Ed Harris and Michelle Pfeiffer are Adam and Eve, and Brian Gleeson and Domhnall Gleeson (real-life brothers) are Cain and Able. For those of you who remember "The Magic Christian," much of Mother is reminiscent of the sequence where the Magic Christian sets sail and things go downhill.
BTW, once you know what the movie is about, it moves from being completely incomprehensible to being merely incomprehensible.
Bottom line. Nothing to see here. Move along.
EXCEPT
This DVD also include a "making of" featurette. While not quite as good as the one accompanying Kingsman: The Golden Circle, it's in the top five.
So once again, if you're interested in how movies are made, get the DVD, skip the movie and watch the featurette.
(Kind of interesting that Hollywood makes better featurettes than movies...)
