Review For Mama |
"Mama" is skillfully made, and although Chastain is the best thing in it, she's not the only thing in it. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
This is a picture about how a mother's love can be nourishing at its best but suffocating in the extreme. Chastain embraces that idea wholly, without squeezing the life out of it. Stephanie Zacharek-Film.com
More effective than you might expect. Rafer Guzman-Newsday
Instead of delivering buckets of guts and gore, this ghost story offers a strong sense of time and place, along with the kind of niceties that don't often figure into horror flicks ... Manohla Dargis-New York Times
"Mama" announces the arrival of a director who works unusually well with actors-the two children are truly scary-and who creates highly charged environments, effective sound designs and powerful fantasy sequences. Joe Morgenstern-Wall Street Journal
Surprisingly, this patchwork pastiche often works. Ian Buckwalter-NPR
[A] respectable entry into the horror genre that values chills over kills. Kevin C. Johnson-St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Mama is an enchantingly dark fairy tale mixed with horror and fantasy, playing off the emotions of a mother's undying love, shown in a powerful light and supplemented by true scares. Matt Donato-We Got This Covered
Spanish director Andrés Muschietti introduces a rewarding emotional element and ends in a way too daring for American counterparts. Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer
Mama is something of a throwback, and at times a stunning one. Michael Wilmington-Daily Herald (IL)
The fact that Guillermo del Toro is an executive producer of Mama is a tip-off that this won't be just another horror film with misbehaving and soon-to-be-dismembered teenagers or a drooling, slime-soaked monster. Leah Rozen-The Wrap
An atmospheric and stylish -- if not always smart -- ghost story. Scott Collura-IGN Movies
Though "Mama" doesn't work, it has the ghost of a good idea at its core. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times
...an interesting haunting angle and a before-she-was-famous Jessica Chastain does her bit to raise up the material, but the filmmakers seriously lose their grip with a protracted finale that overexposes its titular monster Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews
Mama is a film that teeters on the brink of being good or bad, but the top-notch acting, stylish visuals, and surprisingly unconventional ending make this worth seeing. Chris Bumbray-JoBlo's Movie Emporium
Mama turns out to be a film that doesn't go far enough into its own concept, skirting the edges of edginess without ever wanting to actually commit to it. Matthew Razak-Examiner.com
