The Mother - "𝑵𝒐𝒕 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑹𝒆𝒈𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒓 𝑲𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝑶𝒇 𝑴𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓'𝒔 𝑳𝒐𝒗𝒆" Movie Review

This would be the first movie I've seen in the same month it was released and it actually made the experience feel different for me. I almost never see a movie until it's been months or even a year and more before I see it, maybe I don't like going along with the majority to see the movie so I don't fall for too much hype and get my heart broken by what happens in the movie 😅 or maybe I just don't want to see it until I want to, that counts I guess.

I've read a lot of reviews about this movie here in the movies community and I guessed that the hype may just be too much but I went ahead to have it downloaded, why? That is because I saw that the main character is one of my favourite artist (actress), Jennifer Lopez.

If there's a movie that gave me an unexpected storyline from it's title, it would be this movie "The Mother" and I think I enjoyed the movie more because the lead is a character I love and familiarise with a lot when I see her in movies. Even with some reviews I read, I didn't expect the way the storyline of the movie went... It was absolutely a movie with an uncommon love of a mother and I found it so intriguing.

The Mother is about an assassin (Jennifer Lopez) who works is on the run from people she betrayed and had to live away from her daughter. She goes back to protect her daughter when she saw that the daughter was in danger and the story goes on from her rescue process to whether she saved her daughter and herself. The movie showed a lot of irregular scenes, shocking aspects I didn't want to happen and all that made it a thrilling one to see.

Jennifer Lopez's action moves in the movie were good, I read in a few reviews that another female lead would have done this aspect better than her but I think she did well enough to give her kudos on this one. She had the mother face, showed the right emotions through her actions and the scenes with her fighting had me glued, maybe I'm biased because she's a favourite to me but I've also read a few more reviews where she is a good stunt and action packed female actress with this movie she starred in.

William Cruise, one of the character in the movie who happened to be the one in charge of watching over the mother's daughter. He is a character I admired in the movie but I was so unsatisfied with how things went on his own role in the movie. I can't share so it doesn't appear as a spoiler for anyone who's yet to see it but with or without this part in the movie, I'd have still enjoyed it.

Zoe, the mother's daughter gave me a mixed feeling with her role. I know she's only acting but I got annoyed with her at some point and praised her at some point, I guess that is a feeling not even close to what some mothers feel when a child keeps acting out of character to the loss of others. She went from the annoying little girl to a sweet daughter for me, that's a good addition to the movie for me.

The other characters weren't of so memorable to me but they all played their role well enough to make me have a good time seeing the movie. I'm not an action movie lover but I enjoyed this movie and the actions in it.
