This is my review of Mothers' Instinct

Presentación Películas Premios Cine Juvenil Negro Rojo (2).jpg

It's been a while since I've seen a suspense and drama movie, it's not that I don't like them, but it's not my favorite genre. Every once in a while I like to reboot my mind and watch something different. “Mothers' Instinct” is a fairly new movie which is on several streaming platforms, it caught my attention because it features some very well known and talented actresses.

It stars leading actresses Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway, I know that many of us already know these beautiful faces and some of their film work, Jessica can remember her from movies like Interstellar, successful film, where she also shared with Anne, so it is not the first time that these great actresses meet.

My intention is to give you an opening of the film without telling you too much, because I would like everyone to see it and have their own opinion. What I can tell you beforehand is that it is one of those movies that can be somewhat predictable, the atmosphere of this one makes you feel that, I think it has also been because I have seen throughout my life many movies, so there is always a pattern in each of them that is repeated, although at the end if may have given me a little surprise.

Alice and Celine are two neighbor friends who share very similar lives, as they both share beautiful homes, good husbands and also have a son of the same age, so there are many things they can both get along very well. The movie is set in the 70's or 80's era, it reminds me a bit of the era of the “Love and Death” series.

Everything was apparently going well, but something tragic happened, Celine lost her little son falling from the balcony of her house, a total tragedy since he was her only son and she could not conceive more, from here we begin to see the decline of Celine, she begins to awaken a malevolent and calculating being. Alice is very affected by the unexpected death of her son's best friend and at the same time begins to notice certain behaviors of Celine that make her have a feeling that something is not quite right. This is how they start a series of very hard events and it is there where the beautiful relationship of friends is fractured, Celine and Alice no longer tolerate each other.

As I mentioned before, I feel that the movie was a bit predictable, however, I can say that in the end it had a different outcome, in good part Celine was in a lot of pain of having lost the most important thing in her life.

It is not a film that will take your breath away, but I must say that there are very good performances and that it is one of those that you can watch and be entertained without getting bored, for me it has a score of 7/10.

Undoubtedly evil is near and can come from anyone, like the old saying faces we see hearts we don't know. It can be your friend, your neighbor and a person in pain can transform into the worst monster and take anyone as such to achieve their goals. Greetings DinaAczib, I hope you can see this movie very soon! Hugs!
