WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Sandy Xavier Dolan is hardly 30 years old, but has already made eight movies. For me is mommy the first film of him that i have seen. It is settled in Quebec in the near future, and in accordance with a new Canadian law (S 14), that allowds parents of children with neuropsychiatric disabilities to place their uncontrollable child in health care institutions. For Diane Désprés (Anne Dorval), mother of 15-year-old Steve (Antoine-Olivier Pilon), it this completely ruled out as a option. When Steve is thrown out of his last youth home, after firing in he cafeteria school and causing severe burns to another student, Diane takes him home to her house It obviously leads to a lot of problems even if they love each other, which I recognize, as I also have an ADHD-diganos. It makes it extra hard to see Steve suffer in the tumult that occurs between them, no matter who is "guilty" for the moment. All the scens in the movie quickly switches between the characters' both negative and positive emotions. As for the style of the has Xavier made it in 1.1 format, which gives the feeling of that is as recorded whit a verry expensive mobile camera. It gets you grasped by the people's facial expressions. However, In the scene, where Steve goes on a longboard and cries out freedom!, the format enlarges and captures the environment. You really getting touched by Steve's longing for freedom when he does not live up to the demands of the environment. His feelings are enhanced by film music, which are well-known hits like Oasis Wonderwall and Lana del Reys Born to die.

Luka Kraljevic Mommy is a drama about a problematic teenager Steve, diagnosed with ADHD, kicked out of school, and his not much less problematic single mother Diane. The two are not an ideal combination in making the best life decisions but they most certainly remind you what true bondage between a mother and a son represents.The whole story is quite overwhelming, with a lot of ups and even more downs. The basic point is to show how every mother loves her child eternally and to indicate that the love can't be broken whatsoever. Every child knows it but rare are the ones who are truly grateful and who cherish it each day... Which they should, because a mother is a person who loves you most from your first to the last day of life, even though it may not always seem that way. So, this movie makes you wonder if you are enough thankful for having a caring and loving mother.I liked that this drama shows in fact an extreme situation in family and it is more than interesting watching oscillations in relationship between Steve and Diane. It was honestly an emotional roller coaster for me too and, as I said, inspired me to revalue my priorities and encouraged me to value immaterial things in life. I highly recommend watching this movie. It is a rare, but a well deserved 10/10 from me.

Luchsor I have a habit when I have seen movies at home at my desktop. Alone. I clap hands. And the more and the louder and the longer I clap - the more benefit it might had caught. But this one? It's just to hold your head down for a many seconds and admire how talented and extraordinary some people are. How they are able to create and deliver story and circumstances that transport feelings and impressions like this ... one of the best movies in the last ten years. Thank you. There's a melody behindeverything you see in cinema. There's a sense behind nearly half of everything you like to touch you. But there are only a few movies in a century that allow you to emphasize throughout a hole moving picture - and this one is definitely one of them.

nicholascarlson Anne Dorval is far and away the best actress I have had the pleasure to watch in the past couple years. She was solid in J'ai tuer ma mere. She is explosive in Mommy! I haven't written a review yet but her performance encouraged me to do so. Antoine-Olivier Pilon was great, and Suzanne Clement was also top notch.I've never been so deeply affected by a movie. I went back and forth between laughter and tears throughout the entire movie. There were several scenes that I related to....Something that really resonated with me was the scenes where the 3 main characters were laughing, dancing, enjoying life. I personally have a hard time remembering the moments in my life where I was truly happy. I believe that is because in those moments I was so deeply immersed in conversation and laughter that my brain was incapable of creating a memory. While watching Mommy I wasn't able to remember those moments in my life but I was able to make the connection because the performances and script were so realistic. Thank you Xavier Dolan! Waiting for more...
