Darren Aronofsky's Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (17 September 2017)

One of the most prevalent marketing sins committed by Hollywood is misguiding its audience. We walked into that theater expecting a horror film, and we want what we expect. To be fair, "mother!" is definitely related to horror, but it is a psychological art-house flick. No one has figured out how to market that weird genre. Whatever. People should of been warned that "mother!" is not grounded in reality.
You probably won't "get it" because you empathized with Lawrence's character, who felt frustration, anxiety, loss, and anger. She didn't "get it" either. Still, it doesn't matter whether you loved or hated it, because we all felt the same emotions; we all searched for and discovered the same answers. "mother!" has touched brilliance. There won't be another movie like it for ages.
