Wolf Mother

If you are wondering about the title - I did too - it will be mentioned in the movie. And it may even make sense to some. By that point the whole thing was too far gone for me to care for any explanation at all. This is beyond understanding - or norms for that matter.

Your moral compass will be in overdrive on so many things. And if you actually root for the main male character - well I couldn't, he was way too despicable on multiple levels. That being said, Najarra almost saves the day. Her role/character is also quite off beat (and yes I am putting it lightly and nicely), but she is a breath and then some of fresh air.

Yes she is beautiful, but so are other individuals in the movie. She is able to bring some sort of gravitas and make you care for her. At least a little bit - which may go some way to explain why I didn't go lower with my vote. A lot of nudity to begin with - but do not worry (or do?), the movie will not keep that tempo. It will take quite the long break. Actually you may get angry when our main character shrugs off (quite rudely if I may add) a love scene in the making.

Still this is insanity and if you try to understand the motives of our main characters, you are lost already ... if you can suspend your disbelief and just drag along (no pun intended), you will be fine.

A little long winded for me, but that's just me. Some scenes could have been left out as they appeared to be time fillers. Having said that, at no time did I want to hit stop. I think the cast did a good job with what they had to work with. Even though he had a small part, Vescio was at his creepy best. Visually it was quite good. A lot of the locations worked a treat and helped make the casts job a little easier. I watch it via Google Play & didn't feel cheated at having to pay $5.99 to rent. I gave it a solid 5.

In the interests of full disclosure, I concede that I never made it to the end of the movie - but I saw enough to decide to submit my review in order to help those folks who might be thinking "I'll give it a go, nothing much else to do"! Please don't. Like many other film buffs, I am tired of false rating submitted by those who clearly have a vested interest in these films - they don't fool anyone, and are a constant irritant to genuine movie lovers who want to know if a feature is any good. Bad acting, predictable script, formulaic plot - dreadful film, please ignore it and do something more productive with your time.

I loved the performances by Pinassi, and Townsend. Not everyone will like this movie, but if you like excitingly daring films, you will love this one. The soundtrack is amazing, all songs are just the perfect choice. I enjoyed every minute of the movie and I could watch over and over. Sadly it's not yet released. I don't want to say too much about the film because there are no words to describe what I felt when I watched it, it is an experience you have to see for yourself. I really admire Carlson's imagination, how could he think about writing such a weird and incredible story? I watched his last film Toy Soldiers, but yet to see his first one. A true talent.

Through much efforts, I still did not manage to understand the film at all. It seems like a pageant of a large variety of social dregs, whose conversations and behaviors do not make any sense to me. In all, watching it will be a waste of time, at least for most people with their complete sanity.
