Mama Ratings & Reviews
Grantland
Wesley Morris
[The movie] has more integrity than its creepshow peers. The story basically comes down to a dead-looking woman who doesn't want to be a mother fighting for parental custody against a long-dead woman who does. (Grad students, start your theses.)
Movieline
Amy Nicholson
Is this Chastain's reputation-besmirching Norbit? Pshaw -- for my money, it's her best performance yet.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
The metaphorical mother-child connection becomes a mystical horror show of significant power. Sadly it comes too late to save "Mama."
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Kevin C. Johnson
[A] respectable entry into the horror genre that values chills over kills.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
There's something dead and rotting at the center of "Mama," and it isn't the ghost of the woman who lends the horror film its title.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Chastain has an excellent time. And so did I, for most of the movie: It's much more suspenseful than violent, being careful not to allow us to figure out Mama too quickly.
Detroit News
Tom Long
There's something eerily effective about juxtaposing childhood innocence with the violent, the supernatural, the deranged. Evil shines all the more brightly when held up against the sweet promise of youth.
Punch Drunk Critics
Roxana Hadadi
Good acting can't forgive bad effects or narrative choices, and yes, there are a lot of those.
Austin Chronicle
Louis Black
Haunting and extremely atmospheric, Mama is a horror film imbued with an unsettling and affecting power.
Bitch Media
Jenny Catchings
While [Guillermo Del Toro] only takes an executive producer credit here on Mama, I doubt more involvement would have been helpful.
Chicago Reader
Drew Hunt
Screenplay contrivances aside, it's as stylish and atmospheric as modern horror gets.
Slate
Dana Stevens
Even if the beats are familiar, Muschietti sustains a remarkable mood throughout: wintry, elemental and stark, like a late Sylvia Plath poem.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
I was guessing right till the bitter, scary, transcendent end.
Film.com
Stephanie Zacharek
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.
TheWrap
Leah Rozen
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.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
More effective than you might expect.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"Mama" is skillfully made, and although Chastain is the best thing in it, she's not the only thing in it.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
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 ...
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
"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.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Though "Mama" doesn't work, it has the ghost of a good idea at its core.
