I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I love seeing Octavia Spencer doing something different. Diana Silvers was great. Some ok teen drama stuff and the third act is good with a few ridiculous moments.

It’s okay. Nothing remarkable. It was entertaining but anything horror-like as shown in the trailer doesn’t come until the third act of the movie. Everything up to that is build up. If you’re here for gore and plenty of it then look elsewhere. If you want some entertainment and don’t mind throwing $10 out then see it. I’d say wait until you can rent it to watch it. It will be better if you don’t spend above $5 to see. Still, it is not a terrible movie or anything. Just nothing new. One good thing is that there’s a reason for Ma doing what she does instead of just being another random, forgettable killer. So there’s that at least.

_Ma_ is not so much a horror film as it is a crime scene, because this is where a nice idea is brutally massacred by sloppy writing and torn to shreds by lazy directing. And then they butcher the careers of Octavia Spencer, Juliette Lewis, and Allison Janney!? Films like this are the real threat to cinema because they make Netflix originals look good.

What the fuck was that?! It was so so ... Bad.
