    Mama

    It wasn't as scary as they made it seem, but it was really a good movie. You seemed a little lost at the beginning of the movie and then it takes shape. I was really bummed at the end (won't tell you) but was glad the older one made it. Was a little perplexed how someone could live off of cherry seeds for five years but...I'm not a doctor. Guess I could look it up on google.

    Mama

    This is a horror movie that is produced by Guillermo del Toro and you can tell his influence . Two little girls are stranded in the woods for five years [they were 1 & 3 years old , so they are now 6 & 8] . Nikolaj plays their uncle , who adopts them . Jessica is his live-in girlfriend that is in a rock band . Megan plays the 8 year old girl and after their ordeal , they have to meet with a psychiatrist , Daniel . Everyone wants to know how the girls survived on their own in the woods and they say that Mama fed & protected them [since no one else was on the premises when they were found , Daniel assumes that Mama is an imaginary friend] . Little does he know . The story is good , their are scary images [this is Not for young kids {or maybe even some adults} because in the opening scenes , a man points a gun at a little girl's head , intending to kill her] and there are lots of 'jump scares' but there seems to be something missing [the ending was kind of weird] .

    dead at the end

    by

    They did a great job in the beginning about keeping Mama hidden which kept you on the edge of your seat but about half way through you see a good shot of her and once you see her you loose the fear of her b/c it's cheesey. Even though the graphics for her were cheesey the story was still good but the ending was a let down. I think the two little girls in it however deserve some kind of award for their acting.

    Hilariously Scary.

    Seeing how scared everyone got made me laugh and got me more relaxed, but that doesn't mean I didn't jump. It definitely has parts you wouldn't expect and you would never expect the ending. It's crazy and has many twists. I would say go. If you are a horror freak and pick apart every aspect of the movie, you MAY not enjoy it, buuuuut I think it was great.

    Please Mama No...............

    Very good movie until the ending. Just could've gone a different direction than it did. Ending left alot to be desired. Still, go see and judge for yourself!

    Good Movie

    I took my two teenage daughters with me. We all thought it was a good mnovie. They liked the scares that made them jump. The end was alittle odd but, still could figure out and the reasoning behind the ending the way it was. Maybe a sequel? but overall a good movie to see. At least on a tuedday five dollar day.

    Another let down

    by

    A movie that looked to be be a real horror classic ends up with a chick flick ending. A few creepy moments mixed in with some 'make me jump' moments and an ending that left my girlfriend crying because she thought the end was sad! This movie had the potential to be a great horror flick but instead ends up disappointing. If it weren't for the ending I could have lived with the rest of the movie but the ending was just incredibly ridiculous. How do you justify a ghost that kills three people with no problem but can't seem to kill off Annabelle and the Uncle? The premise was great but it seemed like the direction got lost. I don't recommend this movie. Man, what a let down.

    MAMA

    by

    The ominous film, MAMA, was filled with excitement, sporadic comedy, and heart racing scenes. The plot was dynamic and creative. An enjoyable film that will have you jumpy.

    Mama delivers the scary

    This is one of the best scary movies I have seen in years. It is really terrifying to watch and ofeen busy and offers up legitimate heart pounding action. Jessica Chastain has been busy lately and is a great actress. She plays the role as caretaker for the two girls very well. The little girls steal the show as well as the top notch visual effects. I would strongly recommend this movie. Not for children even though PG-13.

    Great movie

    by

    I thought this would be a joke of a movie but turned out to be the exact opposite. The little girls capture your heart as you trully feel sorry for them in this movie.story stayed very consistent from top to bottom.. If you ever spilt custody with someone the ending is how you feel every time you drop your kids off to them.

    MAMA

    I thought the Cinematography in the movie was great... especially the Mercedes driving thru the mountains. Great story line...would have liked to seen the last 5 minutes end differently, but still good. I really enjoy a scary movie without all the blood and guts, and this movie was exactly that. Had the audience jumping out of their seats several times....

    See it

    Yes, this movie did have suspense and uprising action. However the "Pop-ups" or scary moments were kind of too predictable. Although, this movie had a little story line to it so go see it.

    Loved it

    by

    It was exciting and creepy scary. Even my hubby was scared. It's been a long time since I've seen a good scary movie and this nailed it on the head.
