Interesting ideas, well acted. Not a fan of the mise-en-scene but it works. Felt a bit in the shadow of its predecessor Moon though.

I Am Mother succeeds solely on its final act, which while flawed manages to deliver on the sci-fi premise with a twist that, while not unpredictable, is believable given what the movie presents. The film looks great; with stark landscape shots, the futuristically lit bunker and colour pallet mediated by the costumes. Hawker's movement as Mother is great, while Byrne's voice-work is good, though non-conventional as it's unprocessed and human-like. Swank was okay, but Rugaard did a great job.

A sign of good writing is making things that wouldn't normally make sense, make sense in a movies universe. In a universe where there's an all seeing AI, I can believe that things happen without her noticing. The film manages to bring you into that atmospehere, with good acting and decent direction, it is a good watch and a decent sci-fi, thriller.

With really good performances by Clara Rugaard and Hillary Swank, "I Am Mother" is a science fiction thriller with intelligent ideas. Ideas like "2001:A Space Odyssey"(1968) and "Ex Machina"(2014), but obviously not as good. I really didn't like the character of Mother or the way she walks and talks. It was hard to take the movie seriously every time Mother would be in the movie. It's still a really thought provoking sci-fi with smart ideas and a real memorable ending.

A quaint parent themed Sci-Fi cliche so shallow that it could take place in any of a number of much better defined movie universes. Clara Rugaard is the only redeeming factor here, mainly because she's Danish. *Raises clenched fist in the air*

*Chef Ramsay voice* Finally, some good fucking sci-fi. Netflix has been throwing out trash sci-fi for years so it's a relief to finally get something like this. Clara Rugaard is amazing in this film, besting Hilary Swank (who does a good job) without even trying. Rose Byrne is also good as mother, although the movement of the robot is kinda a big part of the character. The film builds tension well and keeps the action for important moments.
