DreamVividly Review of Mother/Android

Mother/Android (2021)

Sci-fi drama NOT an action movie. I loved it.

[10/10 · 19 December 2021]

This movie is way better than the poor reviews are claiming it is. Seriously, did everyone that hated it have low attention spans, and no emotions ? This is a dramatic sci-fi survival story, it's not meant to have non stop mindless action & violence. I mean seriously, it was not boring at all as others have said. It was very entertaining. But we live in a time now where people want instant gratification and have cookie cutter expectations, or want happy endings so anything out of the norm or a little unique, or thought provoking and they hate it. So it doesn't surprise me really that so many are hating on it. The story was very well thought out on a deeper level, if you don't pay attention you will miss the core of the movie. There were even several intense scenes that I was on the edge of my seat. The acting was superb and drew me in. Chloe had me in tears at the end with her heartbreaking decision. Algee Smith delivered as well. The cinematography, and special effects were all top notch. This movie reminded me of the movie The Road in a lot of ways but the mother was the protagonist in this one, willing to do whatever it takes for their child to have a chance of a life in a dying world. I gave it a ten because I appreciated it for what it was and didn't expect it to be something it wasn't.
