You have to see it to value it for yourself, because it seems unthinkable to me to be able to recommend it or not to anyone. Its mixture of fascination and despair is just as special. [Full review in Spanish]October 02, 2017
Overwhelming, crazy, nebulous and unbridled allegorical. [Full review in Spanish]October 02, 2017
Lawrence is terrific, expertly essaying a role which must appear realistic, even if the setting is phantasmagoric.October 03, 2017
The first half is surprising and rather good, but the second half is a chaotic, indulgent and eventually rather disgusting mess.September 18, 2017

There is something about mother! that makes you think, that makes you stop and relive the entire film in your mind.September 18, 2017

The gutsy [Jennifer] Lawrence [is] badly miscast as a shrinking violet.October 03, 2017
A film that is overwhelmed by its own ambitions, behind which is a filmmaker drowned in a whirlwind of ego torrential swirl. [Full review in Spanish]September 21, 2017
It's a real widening gyre of a movie, set adrift by the vicissitudes of both theological and cinematic history, with no human center to hold it down.September 16, 2017
It's too bad it doesn't work.September 22, 2017
At times horrifying, at times riveting, at times baffling, and at times like nothing you've ever seen before.
