      I only want you, but you want them! Throughout WTF, women dare not give birth after watching

      American madman director Darren Aronowski’s latest limited-level thriller "Mother! Mother!" finally released in HD!


      This annual topic of the year, which burst out reviews as soon as it was released, was heated and debated around the scandal of Darren Aronofsky and the heroine's cousin Jennifer Lawrence.

      During the filming, the two were full of affection on the set, but after the filming ended, the two announced their breakup. During the filming, there were...

      How to interpret "Mother! The many metaphors in ?

      Although this is a cyclical repeating story, and I have been immersed in reincarnation from generation to generation, but there is a detail that the beginning and the end of the story are not the same heroine.

      Maybe they are repeating the same story, or maybe they have experienced different experiences, but I believe the ending is the same.

      Maybe humans...

      Uncomfortable film... how rare is peace and comfort

      The whole film is from the first point of view of the heroine's repression. She has experienced mental torture again and again. Women are weak in marriage and have no choice but to be in a helpless situation. I am very angry and feel aggrieved and painful! Can't the two of you live a good life... Peace and comfort is so precious. The male protagonist has no protective effect in the marriage, and has not considered the other half's thoughts at all? In marriage, he has been letting unrelated...

      Who is not the remains of a corpse from a previous life

      I don't think this movie is a "story", it's more of a metaphor and symbol that refers to a lot of spiritual feelings. The director didn't want to say anything specifically because the director wanted to say too much.

      There may not be a category of "absurd films" in movies, but there is a clear sense of absurd dramas in dramas. Inorganic repetition of seemingly meaningless lines, etc...

      People's infinite doubts, fears of loneliness and strangers, fear of loss, will flicker and...

      What exactly does it symbolize?

      Metaphors, symbols, religion, magic... just look at how many labels are posted! There are a lot of elements, but it's really hard to understand. But suddenly one day, an uninvited stranger followed by two, three, four finally came to a family, whether it was a friend of a stranger or a friend of a friend, and taught you to smoke and drink at will in your house Be a man; tear up, fight and open a party; think carefully! In the middle of the film, it was relieved by the heroine's pregnancy,...

      This is not a metaphor, it is a direct statement. Any religion, natural immigration, left or right, is just part of Darren's dark epic of humanity. Darren burned those equally greedy and mad humans with mad rage! Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit! I love this movie! I love this movie! I love this...

      Very stupid and superficial expressions of religious elements and political opinions. Darren was too ambitious to let himself go. He wanted to put an elephant in a room, but the result was really simple and rude and literally stuffed inside. However, the technical level is very good, especially in the second half of the scenes, I have been gutted. From a certain perspective, it is the same thing as McBay filming...

      Although she is the eldest cousin, but in terms of acting ability, her talent and level are even higher than that of Aunt Mei of the same age. If the whole movie did not rely on her grasp of emotions at different levels, and her restraining and substituting performances, Darren was bursting. The ambition may be completely reduced to a...

      That's it. That's EXACTLY it. That's EXACTLY the world. The Pure Absurdity. Thank you Darren. those who think it's just political or religious, they are the absurdity...

      Out of control bad movie or masterpiece? A large number of metaphors and enigmatic layouts make people look question marks, and the viewing process is definitely a wonderful experience that is terrifying (after watching the director's interpretation is even more stunned)! Unexpectedly, after playing a bunch of roaring roles, JLaw converged so meticulously and movingly under this large number of close-up "selfie shots" (it was all due to her nervous, anxious and subtle expressions that made the...

    Movie plot

    "Mother" ( Jennifer Lawrence ) and "He" ( Javier Baden ) are a couple, they have no children. The couple lived in an old mansion located in the suburbs, which was almost completely destroyed before the two got married, so they returned to their hometown and tried to repair the house before starting family life. At least "Mother" planned it this way. "He" is a world-renowned poet, but he encountered obstacles in writing inspiration....
