Thought-provoking, original and creative

Rating: 10/10 (19 September 2017)

I wish more movies like this were being created. God forbid a movie doesn't just force feed you "this is what the movie is about," "this is how you should feel," "this is a good thing," "this is a bad one," and "this is the lesson" and do it with formulaic plots and clichéd characters. It was refreshing to see something actually original in theaters for once. Mother felt like being in a dream, or a nightmare, afterward you wake up and think you understand why you had the dream, but it was a mix of so many thoughts and emotions you've had that inspired it, that it's hard to tell exactly. Mother was an experience and more like actual art instead of a Hollywood sellout movie. It was stimulating, dark, stressful, and you even laugh a couple of times, not to mention fantastic acting. I loved leaving the theater and hearing everyone's different interpretations. I highly recommend this movie and recommend watching it with an open mind... and open heart.
