Ugh - rolls eyes

Rating: 2/10 (25 March 2018)

This was not a good movie. As others have said it is self indulgent and pretentious. The same kind of 'art' as pooping on paper and hanging it up. All while it slams you over the head with a mallet of unrelenting metaphors. 'Oh if you don't like it you clearly must not understand it' some will say - it's not hard to understand, it's just not a great movie, yet another excuse for those left of sensibilities to screech misogyny when there isn't any. Any excuse though. At least JLaw might have made a little more effort with this one, rather than staying a healthy size when she's meant to be a starving girl in the hunger games! Reeeeal professional. I have a feeling she was happy to play this disturbing role in the even more disturbing movie only to pretend she suffers for her art and more 'poor women' clap trap. Mother! is an analogy for Mother Nature of course, the only comparison in this movie that isn't nonsensicle and is meaningful. If you enjoy photos of tea cup stains sold for millions kind of art then this movie will probably be right up your ally.
