La chair de sa chair

Mother's Day (2023) is really a great movie! I think they made this movie to dedicated to the all mother's. This movie is really a another masterpiece for me. Because there is not any unnecessary or something which is i think not good. I will definitely recommend it to everyone to watch for once, you will love this movie. The action moments and the role played by the main character was really more than your expectations! I was not expect it will be this much interesting but, when I watched it i said this is really a great movie! True action scene! Everything was just really more than expect!

At the ending of the movie story changed totally!! It looks like they are going to release second part of this movie!

28 October 2024 Watched H Dubbed On Netflix.

Or a Polish badass girl, who, as the recent Netflix THE MOTHER, proceeds in the NIKITA rip-offs list. Or if you prefer JOHN WICK in skirts who would meet DIRTY HARRY. OK, watching this once in a while, I agree, but too much is too much. I was determined to watch this one, because it is Polish, and I was curious to see how Polish film industry could make such a film, and second, to review a movie without seeing it is totally idiotic, non sense isn't it? So, I saw it and that confirms what I was a bit scared about in the first place.... The villains are here totally f...up and only this could justify to watch this action flick only for what it is. An agreeable time waster but rapidly forgettable.

Nina Nowak is a former special operations agent who has crossed the wrong people. They can't get to her directly so they kidnap her son. He was adopted and has no idea that she is his mother but that won't stop her doing whatever it takes to get him back. This includes taking on assorted gangsters, agents of a corrupt foreign power and some people she thought she could trust.

This may not be a great film; the plot is hardly original and the action isn't exactly realistic but if you can put your brain in neutral for ninety minutes it is quite fun. There aren't too many let ups in the action and the fights and shoot outs do have a sense of danger. Unlike many action films our lead won't survive each encounter without getting hurt. The action is exciting and fairly bone-crunching even if there is an excess of slow-motion at times. The bad guys are all suitably unpleasant and equally expendable while our heroine is enjoyably tough yet vulnerable. The acting is solid enough; the villains ham it up ridiculously at times but that is part of the fun. Agnieszka Grochowska impresses as Nina. The locations used are mostly stereotypical dingy disused industrial buildings or night time in less salubrious areas of Warsaw. Overall I'd say this is hardly a must see but it is fun if you are a fan of the genre.

These comments are based on watching the film in Polish with English subtitles.

A movie isn't worthy with just few spectacular action sequences or a gutsy performance by its lead character's but literally it has to go plot test to get effective on whole... Agnieszka carries the whole movie on her shoulders that way ahead of its flaws and turns to be a sole survivor.... But yes the camera work are the most effective aspect that keeps it's momentum flow along with the movie while action blocks are the soul of the movie... While the villainous act are cringy and just acts as pop up character.... On whole it's not too emotional as the title suggest but just a pure adrenaline action blocks that keeps u hold until the last act... Overall skip it or see it on ur own risk...

This is a solid action flick that offers an unbeatable woman who takes on a battalion of bad guys to rescue her teenage son, who has lived with his step-parents all his life. Our superhero is Nina Nowak, a former special ops agent played by Agnieszka Grochowska, who gave up her son to protect him from her inherently dangerous lifestyle. Despite her sacrifice, her son Max (played by Adrian Delikta) is kidnapped by the bad guys and used as bait to lure Nina out in the open. Their maneuver works, much to their regret.

The confrontations are swift and violent and Nina's fighting skills are top notch, but she doesn't win every battle...but we know she's going to win the war. I like that Nina actually suffers a variety of bloody injuries during her conflicts, which aren't always realistically portrayed but at least the film gives a nod to combat consequences.

Inevitably and forevermore, "Mother's Day" will be compared to "The Mother," a film starring Jennifer Lopez that was released just months earlier and has a very similar plot. "The Mother" is weak sauce compared to this Polish production and Lopez (who I actually like) doesn't hold a candle to Grochowska when it comes to gritty action heroes. Lopez always looks like a runway model -- an aging one, but still in bloom -- even when she's in the midst of a brawl. Grochowska sustains all the aches and agonies you'd expect from so many battles and skirmishes.

I gave "The Mother" a 4-star review but "Mother's Day," skillfully written and directed by Mateusz Rakowicz, is worthy of its 7 stars. It's one of those movies where you need to completely suspend your disbelief to enjoy, but if you relax and don't pick too many nits, you're bound to have a good time.
