Reviews


80
Arizona Republic - Kerry Lengel
Ma is one loony little horror film, and Octavia Spencer has a grand old time being the craziest thing in it.
75
Entertainment Weekly - Leah Greenblatt
Even as the story descends into full bloody camp at its crescendo, Spencer holds the more ludicrous plot threads together.
63
Chicago Tribune - Katie Walsh
Known for her lovable roles in "The Help" and "Hidden Figures," Spencer goes dark and sadistic with an enthusiastic glee, her signature smile (and those bangs!), and she creates one of the most memorable horror villains in recent history. She makes "Ma" worth it.
60
The Guardian - Benjamin Lee
Spencer works hard to keep us on her side and it’s her messy, melancholic character work that endures, a portrait of a woman broken and breaking those around her that’s really quite hard to shake. Ma is a few more drafts from perfection but the actor playing her is the real deal.
59
TheWrap - Yolanda Machado
Attempts to be a psychological campy thriller but gets so lost in trying to construct a message that all the exaggerated thrills die before even lifting off.
