Kickass new sci fi movie on Netflix I just watched
 

"I am Mother"

One if the best movie I've seen this year. A psychological sci-fi thriller with so many twists and turns. Awesome!

Cool!! Can't wait to watch this:thumbsup

just great! they rebuild the white people

Wrong.

You clearly haven't seen it you negative nelly :2 cents:

Why does "Mother" have to sleep to recharge her batteries? And why so long? Why not just swap battery packs?

Next, why unpack those embryos one at a time? If Mother's job is to raise a perfect person, the psychological impact of loneliness would drive a kid-teen to madness or at least stunt their mental growth.

If they are trying to make a good human, why do it one at a time and take so long doing it? Each embryo is born in 30 days sure but we assume that the girl has been there for 18 years. Since there are at least 4 others before her, its easy to say Mother's been at this for at least 30-40 years.

Since there is so much food and resources then many "Mothers" raising many people would make more sense.

OK movie, decent tension, great visual effects, and "Mother" looked like it was designed from Boston Dynamics - neat! But otherwise...

looks ok , ill torrent it.

watching within few days. Love what i'm hearing (had to skip 2marks spoilers tho lol)

Of course, you should only watch this video if you have seen the movie. This is a great breakdown of the themes, symbolism and even some of the plot confusion I was having. Makes perfect sense to me now.



The opening sequence was one of the most beautiful cinematic things I've seen in a while.

And did anyone else actually do the math of the "days passed" super after that opening sequence? Probably would have had different thoughts while watching had I done that.

There's a whole lot of things in the movie that are thrown in your face to tell you what's going on. But I usually miss that stuff because I don't like to try to figure out a movie as I watch it. I'm more about soaking up the music, cinematography, dialogue etc...the filmmaking stuff. A twist ending has more impact for me if I haven't already put the puzzle pieces together before the ending.

That's a great clip thanks! Glad you liked the movie :thumbsup

That Hilary Swank character...when you put into perspective her entire story...wow that shit is just tragic.

SPOILER ALERT!!!

What an awful end for her.

Notice in her shipping yard shelter she had the religious shrine? and after mother notices the religious shrine she kills her? My thought us the robots killing humanity was to kill off religion and give us a fresh start without the hate of religion; the scurge of humanity.

My big question is, what happened to the dog in the end? He was with the girl, then never seen again, and we know the woman dies so she wouldn't be able to feed him anymore.

Yes!! :1orglaugh

Yes good points. I also hate when they just pick up in a post apocalyptic world with no back story. Was the woman who came in through the airlock one of the original embryos? There are a lot of things that make me scratch my head here

Everything that happened was orchestrated by the mother robot -- which is actually one robot consciousness. It can simultaneously destroy the human race while also nurturing the perfect human to adulthood. The outsider character was the first embryo, put into place to play her part in the girl's development of becoming the new mother to the human race. Basically, daughter passed all of her tests, including choosing her new brother over the outsider. It's all an experiment by the AI, who subjectively looked at its human creators and decided they needed a reboot as a species. its actions were neither malevolent or benevolent. It was just a robot being a robot. The killing of the human race was unemotional, as was the upbringing of the daughter.

I still think there are clues that the robot thought that religion is what destroyed humanity to the point that Mother had to start humanity from scratch, after physically destroying it.

Notice how Hilary Swanks character had the rosery cross she kept on playing with throughout her scenes and how the end scene she had a religious shrine? Notice how the robot touch the shrine and looked at it and then said and she had served her purpose, then killed her?

Considering all of the other subtle storytelling gestures, it wouldn't be a weird idea.

it was a weird movie with little details. the girl they want to appear as a young teen is actually 24. not enough action for me... 5 out of 10 here

No one is expecting you to suddenly have good taste.

nobody here is expecting you to respect opinions :2 cents::2 cents: not going to say it was good because you want me to

think where you would be without us, its kinda like thanks for all the cool shit now fuck off, right? :winkwink:

:321GFY:321GFY i hope that huge dogg shits in your favorite shoes

Thanks for the tip

:1orglaugh:thumbsup

As someone who does Cg for a living, I feel kind of dumb for not realizing the robot was a man in a suit.



Actually I didn't think about it while watching the movie. Maybe there was a moment when I just assumed it was CG because almost every VFX of this nature isn't done practically anymore. I love practical effects and it's good to see some filmmakers not turning to Cg for everything.

Couldn't embed the video for some reason....

I'm a subscriber to Adam Savages Tested YouTube channel and when the video popped up on my feed explaining that the robot was not CGI I was shocked.

The fact that it took so long to get him in the costume every day and if he had to take a shit he had to get fully undressed to do so was distressing to me :evil-laug

I fell asleep watching it. Got to the bit after the woman got in and she refused to be treated.

If you fall asleep while watchin a movie it's because you're tried.

It was a great slightly mind brnding movie :thumbsup

I was tired. I have just finished it and I would give it a 7.5 out of 10.

Sorry not really intrested in gay movies

There is nothing about this movie that is Gay.

:thumbsup
