Mother! A film that is somewhat interesting but disappoints more than engages.

Rating: 3/10 (16 November 2017)

Mother! Is a film that is perpetually confusing, crazy and nonsensical. This is a film that I think no doubt will make you think and wonder what you were just watching and maybe get to you. I will say the first half of this film before all the lunacy begins is not too bad, it looked as there was a disturbing thriller sheeting out as we see the characters in this house evolve and your looking to see what will happen to these as they have let these strangers into their house not knowing who they are and if their safety is in jeopardy. Instead though as the film moves on from these few characters it then turns into a whole bunch of people coming into their house like an infested pile of rodents coming all over the place that cause all kinds of havoc to theist house and life. This becomes so thrown all together that not only does it not make any sense it turns into a fiasco that doesn't care how out of place it is. I get that this is a film with many metaphors attached to it like the two main stars representing God and. Mother Nature and Adam and Eve as the first people to come in and then there are all these other people populating and taking control and damaging the environment. There's metaphors all over the place here whether it's religion, biblical references, the destruction man causes, how fame or popularity takes over our lives and sense of privacy, the nightmarish idea of having people all over your house destroying everything in there.How do these ideas mix with this film I guess the viewer needs to figure that out cause the way it was representing itself definitely made it very difficult to put these concepts together cause of how crazy the plot turns into, I really couldn't see at all the metaphors for any of this at all by the end. This movie felt more like it would have done better as being a short cause it would have been able to throw all it's concepts together in a quick time frame but for a feature length film it definitely doesn't work to it's own advantage.
