My Mother

Ma Mere, with its sun-drenched sense of dread and band of reckless, unlikable characters, isn't very good, but that doesn't stop the actors -- especially the intrepid Huppert -- from going all the way.

For all its shocking content, it remains a rather conventional psychological portrait of Oedipal attraction taken to a disturbing extreme.

Director Christophe Honore's respectable, tightly coiled, but ultimately unrewarding adaptation of Georges Bataille's posthumous novel.

Yet another stylish exercise in depravity in which Huppert floats through the sordid proceedings in a calm haze. If only the film she inhabits was as sexy as it aspires to be.

If you are at all squeamish about incest and/or prefer sex scenes without violent undertones, you should avoid this movie.

110 minutes of Euro silliness mitigated only by the presence of Huppert and the striking ability of the actors to keep a straight face throughout this mess.

Degrading, disgusting and depressing.

this is the worst moving picture i have ever had the misfortune of watching. the once great nation of france had the courage to rise up against their monarchs (aka slavemasters' and behead them where they stood, now they are reduced to a quivering mess thanks to the release of this movie. i hope they can recover in the future.

Bernard Henry Levy, the monster of vile blood who has a clear zionist agenda AND regularly exports death to other countries (And also a faux philiosopher who the French hate with a passion) was the DIRECTOR of this **** wonder! If anyone want any more proof that zionists are spreading corruption...this is it!
