This movie kept me wondering what was going to happen. It was a nice pace. I also think it was very realistic. Definitely worth the watch.

A solid entry to the suspense , psychological, horror found footage genre. Personally thought there was seeds planted earlier in the film that could of took it down a different route, which may of improved the over all movie and mystery. But the ever changing conflict and complex relationship on a tight rope pulling between love and hate is really the core of the movie and where it stands out, it's well enough acted to be convincing and it chugs along at a nice pace to keep you engaged
There is movies out there with similar concepts done better, perhaps not in this style, but I well recommend this movie nonetheless.

I was hooked by the concept and the movie didn't disappoint. Love the found footage element, a device used very effectively. Well done!

Nice little potboiler with great direction and interesting performances. With all the choices and platforms out there now its a nice little rush when i come across something that grabs my attention and holds it. Id love to see more from this director. Give it a watch, it really pays off!
Mothers of Monsters is a super creepy psychological thriller about a mother that believes she is raising a psychopath. M.O.M. delivers on so many levels. Great performances by the cast and a great script. This movie was so disturbing. I can't recommend it enough.
Pretty good movie that leaves you guessing all the way til the end. Definitely worth the watch. Wasn't expecting much, but got a lot more. Didn't add much to the genre, but kept me very entertained throughout. I'd give it a shot.

This film really got to me. As a 54 year old grandmother with 5 generations living in my family at one time, the state of our nation/world is a constant topic. This is one of the very few movies I have seen that attempts to address a parents perspective of having a very bright but difficult and troubled teenager.
The movie concentrates on the aftermath of a relationship between a mother and son, and only gives a very brief but very basic nod towards real life tragedies and struggles that make this subject so complex.
I am not usually a fan of found footage movies, but the subject of this film made this type of film making (technology) it's own role.
I have to disagree with the one reviewer who mentioned the actor portraying the teenage son average and the actress playing the mother good. Teenagers are often "acting" as they are learning who they are and i thought he was brilliant. The mother had a much more difficult role as she was portraying authentic fears and frustrations of motherhood.
It was good to see Ed Asner in a cameo and as usual he was super.
If you Like or dislike this movie, at least it creates an environment to discuss this topic and in my opinion that in itself makes this movie brilliant.

Was not expecting some of the twist through out the plot. Such a great and entertaining film. Great acting and story. Highly recommend.
Really acts like more of a thriller than horror movie, but is effective none the less. A little slow at times, but worth the effort. The credit stinger is pretty great. The performances are solid. Worth a go.

This is a really good movie with two excellent lead actors. For those who have grown tired of the found footage trope, don't let that discourage you from watching m.o.m.! The only warning I would give is that there is some imagery and content that would be disturbing to some viewers, though I wasn't particularly put off by it.
Definite recommend!!

I just finished watching this on Amazon and decided to look up the reviews on IMDB. And I was quite surprised to see so many positive reviews for such a boring movie. Of course, movies are subjective, but I still found this odd. But just as I suspected, all the high reviews were left by people who only reviewed this movie or one other movie. It's very obvious they have a bias towards this movie whether they worked on the film or knew someone who did, but their reviews are not genuine. The two lowest ratings were by posters who appear to be legit since they have reviewed many other titles. So yeah, I actually took the time to make an account to give others a heads up.
As for the movie itself. Like I said, boring. The whole staring at the camera at the end was lame. It had that artsy fartsy, trying to be edgy vibe. But no knock on the director. I'm a big fan of Ghosts of Sheperdstown & Fact or Faked: Paranormal files. Maybe that's your calling, the paranormal.

A tense, engrossing thriller, I was pleasantly entertained with this story that felt real and genuinely disturbing. It moves forward at a good pace with plenty of twists and reveals that kept me captivated. Parents especially will find it particularly relatable and frightening, and it provides some food for thought on parenting, abuse and trauma. The film certainly isn't for the faint of heart, but the scenarios and violence both entertain and make a point. And I particularly liked the clever use of practical cameras. But what really sells the story is the impressive, powerful acting from the two leads which add to the film's authenticity, relatableness, and emotional power.
So I randomly? found this movie on the Tubi streaming app.This movie takes sometime to build up but don't stray away from it, there was never a boring moment. Trust me when I say it has such an intriging storyline and has a very raw feel to the entire film. I really enjoyed watching the film the producers did a great job on this indie-esque film, definitely has cult classic portential.

Pretty basic outcome, a "know it all" mom seems to be able to see all the indicators that her son is terrible and no one else can see it. She's also to naive to stop him so basically the movie is about her achieving nothing and somehow it's supposed to be a guide for other moms I guess on how to do nothing.

I like completely understand what the writers and actors were trying to portray, and initially they succeed. It was intriguing at first but unfortunately it collapsed under it's own weight, until both actors are left hamming it up and overacting towards the end, and it resembles a soap opera. This will obviously be compared to we need to talk about Kevin, which was a searing and exquisitely executed film about troubled teens and their parents. As a result this ends up looking like a copy of a copy of a copy. There were glaring inconsistencies in the characters behaviours, and although were supposed to be questioning if the kid is capable of murder or not, I found his "teen speak" ("snooze fest" "ain't gonna fly") embarrassing, as teenagers don't talk like that, and his portrayal of a "dangerous" teenager laughable and distracting. I've given it 6 because the production and editing were pretty good for a budget movie.

So, I quite enjoyed this movie. It really give you an understanding of mental health awareness. Mam is suffering from mental health. Which you can question whether or not it has rubbed off onto her son. Especially when she is worried for her own welfare as well as others around her.
Son shows classic signs of psychopathy from a young age.
It makes you think, could the mam reading in to all of this encouraged him even more.
He was definitely a troubled young individual.
I gave this 7 stars as it is left kind of open ended, I wanted to see what happened further.
Lots of emotional trauma experienced and also physical trauma too.
M. O. M is definitely a must watch for at least once.
