Mother Ratings & Reviews
Third Coast Review
Lisa Trifone
It's an interesting path that the film takes to explore these themes, but one that, in its context, works well enough.
Common Sense Media
JK Sooja
Dark, brutal depiction of abusive parenting; violence, sex.
Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam
Charles Koplinski
Credit Sorogoyen for not giving in to the story's potential lurid elements and instead offering up a thoughtful and moving portrait of grief and healing.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Madre becomes more graceful and contemplative. But the long film demands patience without necessarily rewarding it...
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
The result is a head trip in the best way imaginable.
The Scarecrow
Robert Horton
Somewhere in the background is the specter of Jonathan Glazer's Birth, with some similarly uncomfortable results.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
Despite its melancholy bearing, "Madre" is a hopeful meditation on grief and memory.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Claudia Puig
Marta Nieto in the title role is just fantastic. The nuances of her performance are breathtaking.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Amy Nicholson
It's really fantastically done... There are so many interesting levels in this film.
San Francisco Examiner
Anita Katz
It takes the surprising and satisfying form of a psychological drama following the mother's journey through loss.
IndieWire
Ryan Lattanzio
"Madre" turns out to be the least twisted, and most empathetic, entry in the damaged mother movie canon in some time.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Kupecki
While it engages in this liminal balancing act, the film is a deeply compelling portrait of how intense loss shapes our behavior, our perspective, and most importantly, ourselves.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[W]e expect some kind of mystery or thriller, but instead, Sorogoyen and fellow screenwriter Isabel Peña offer a tale of deep melancholy and unfulfillable longing.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
An unusually compelling character study, one that, commendably, opts to end on a humane note rather than a dark judgment.
Slant Magazine
William Repass
Rodrigo Sorogoyen's feature-length Madre contemplates how memories of loss linger and distort the present.
Variety
Guy Lodge
Rodrigo Sorogoyen expands his Oscar-nominated white-knuckler of a short in a most unexpected way: slower, calmer and imbued with metaphysical mystery.
The Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
It is undeniable that Sorogoyen is a master filmmaker. His work with his actors is impressive, with Nieto, in a fully bilingual performance, and Porier are both natural yet nuanced.
