I Am Mother Ratings & Reviews
oweng15
October 15, 2024
This movie has a strong plot that keeps you tucked in the whole time. While this movie might not be for everyone it is perfect for those who like sci-fi and so on.
Chicago Reader
Noëlle D. Lilley
Australian filmmaker Grant Sputore's direction keeps viewers on their toes, and we never quite know who to trust.
Cultured Vultures
Dan Ashby
I Am Mother has a simple narrative but one that is executed with skill and flair. The cinematography, lighting, sound work and acting all come together to deliver a satisfying movie.
Cosmopolitan
Emily Tannenbaum
A movie that's apparently all about motherhood and female connection (and maybe a little about abortion?) was completely written, directed, and executive-produced by men.
Floated Alternative Culture Magazine
Danielle Del Plato
I Am Mother exudes visual sophistication-specifically with its production design, which is intriguing and well suited.
Pajiba
Dustin Rowles
It's not a wildly imaginative film, but like a lot of Netflix fare, it's a serviceable, well-acted, entertaining and at times intriguing film.
Pop Culture Leftovers
Melissa Sloter
The joy of director Grant Sputore's debut lies less in the actual plot than in the breakout performance by Clara Rugaard, the affecting work of Hilary Swank, and the ideas the film plants in the mind of the viewer for further examination.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
It's an exciting film to watch, but an even better one to think about after - preferably in the company of a real, physically present person.
TV Guide
Jordan Hoffman
A smart, low-budget science fiction head-scratcher that doesn't exactly jump out and thrill you, but offers interesting twists beneath its stillness.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
Frustrating but engrossing, and impossible to critique in-depth without spoilers because it's driven by regular plot twists.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
Rugaard, a Danish-Irish 21-year-old, feels like a major discovery - she's the not-so-secret motor of I Am Mother, a dynamic presence that lends blood, guts and soul to this dystopic vision.
Polygon
Karen Han
I Am Mother maintains a tension that should keep even the most skeptical viewer hooked on the proceedings.
Perri Nemiroff (YouTube)

It had me hooked start-to-finished, though I wish I had something a bit more concrete to walk away with...still, a very impressive feature debut...
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
Green's plot is occasionally predicated on too-convenient plot point...but no amount of narrative corner-cutting can undermine the aesthetic beauty of this impressive calling-card film, which suggests bigger things to come from its promising director.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Sputore, working with spare elements, heightens tensions at every turn, and gets the most out of his dynamic, all-female cast. "I Am Mother" is a knockout.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
The film just has too much other stuff going on to delve into what it'd be like growing up as the first and so far only member of Humanity 2.0. That's a failing, but an eminently forgivable one.
IGN Movies
Kristy Puchko
I Am Mother is an engaging sci-fi thriller-meets-coming of age drama, with three strong lead performances.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Clearly, I Am Mother is thematically rich. It's just not dramatically rich.
Variety
Amy Nicholson
"I Am Mother" is exactly what it seems: a good-looking allegory that postures like it's wrestling with more ideas than it actually is.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
While "I Am Mother" does show its cards a touch too early, it never ceases to be intriguing and tense.
