Mommy
TrailerThe film revolves around a widowed mother Diane Després- Die Considered white trash by many, Die does whatever she needs, including strutting her body in front of male employers who will look, to make an honest living. That bread-winning ability is affected when she makes the decision to remove her only offspring, fifteen year old Steve Després, from her previously imposed institutionalization, one step below juvenile detention.With this institutionalization, she has to take care of him which means only being able to do home based work. Their lives, both individually and as a family, are affected with the entrance of two of their neighbors.They are Paul, a lawyer who tries to help Steve through his legal problems and Kyle who lives across the street with her husband Patrick and their adolescent daughter.Genre: DramaActors: Anne Dorval, Suzanne Clément, Antoine-Olivier Pilon, Patrick Huard, Alexandre Goyette, Michèle Lituac, Viviane Pascal, Natalie Hamel-Roy, Isabelle Nélisse, Ted Pluviose, Reda Guerinik, ...»Director: Xavier DolanCountry: CanadaDuration: 139 minQuality: HDRelease: 2014IMDb: 8.00 CommentsSort By- Newest

Critic Reviews of "Mommy"
Peter Rainer Christian Science MonitorFebruary 20, 2015I suppose the relationship is Oedipal or primal or something or other, but mostly it's just an excuse for Dolan to stage a series of gaudy shout-fests.
Rene Rodriguez Miami HeraldFebruary 12, 2015A story of the combative relationship between a mother and her son filled with delirious swells of effusive love and sudden plummets into madness and hate.
Ty Burr Boston GlobeFebruary 05, 2015Dolan is able to weave dialogue, camerawork, a fluid yet urgent editing style, and a magpie's ear for pop music into a cinematic world that you can almost hold in your hand before it starts spilling over.
Moira MacDonald Seattle TimesFebruary 05, 2015The movie's overlong, underpopulated and often devastating to watch. But it's told with an uncanny realism, and when it's over you feel shaken and a little sick - and realize that you can finally exhale.
Richard Brody New YorkerFebruary 02, 2015Mother and son gesticulate wildly but remain undefined; Dolan's blandly showy aesthetic matches the vainly hectic action.
Mick LaSalle San Francisco ChronicleJanuary 30, 2015Dolan is only 25, and though he doesn't have Orson Welles beat, this has to be one of the best films ever written and directed by a 25-year-old.
Peter Labuza The Film StageJune 06, 2016In Mommy, Dolan has essentially stunted his work, speaking both figuratively and literally.
James Mottram South China Morning PostApril 06, 2016Mommy forces you to give in to its relentless energy. Dolan conducts it with gusto, leaving us with a cathartic reckoning with his own demons.
David 'Mad Dog' Bradley Rip It UpJanuary 01, 2016It's perhaps a never-seen-before technical stunt that's deeply intriguing, seriously cinematic and impossible to discuss without giving it all away.
Sherilyn Connelly SF WeeklyDecember 31, 2015Xavier Dolan's Mommy is an endurance test even by the standards of miserablist drama.
Robert Horton Seattle WeeklyDecember 21, 2015You can see the talent that lies beneath Dolan's aggressive method, and the promise of something great in his future.
