A strange concept for a movie

Rating: 8/10 (17 September 2017)

A lot has been said already about what the movie is about so without going into too much detail I will express my humble opinion. There are many possible lectures about this movie the obvious one is that "Mother" is nature, Him is "God" and pretty much nature destroys creation when attacked forcing God to start over again.
A second interpretation could be an insecure woman who tries to create a whole universe around her and his husband; but he is not happy in that confinement so she ends in her craziness she ends up destroying everything she cannot control.
I love movies that make you think; and the first interpretation is an "ECOLOGIC" one; but far from subtle. Aronofsky is not David Lynch; his metaphoric expressions have very little subtlety but he gets to the point (whichever it is).
The second interpretation; makes the movie the complete opposite to "Rosemarie's Baby".
Perhaps this is just a writer creating a story taking elements from religious symbols (Adam, Eve, Cain, Able, Jesus, Communion ) and failing to reach his goal.
Acting is very good; but the over use of Lawrence face feels too much. She is a great actress; but I do not think he was the perfect match for the role. Barden is great as always; he is one of the best and most intense actors around. Under using him is a real sin.
More screen time for him and Ed Harris should have made the movie fantastic. Pfieffer is always good even when the character is irritating.
In brief; out of curiosity give it a look; at least it will make you thing a lot.
