In front of how many people have you pretended to feel love, happiness, satisfaction, and joy? πŸ€”πŸ€” I’m sure it’s been in front of many, because that’s the human way of coping with situations where we don’t want to hurt the feelings of the person we’re deceivingβ€”maybe because they’re very close to us, and hypocrisy helps us keep up appearances 😐😐. I always hear that honesty is good, that it’s the right thing to do, but nothing could be further from the truthβ€”in fact, being too honest can cost you many opportunities in life πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

Other Mommy is a film recently released on Theaters that I think barely manages to blends horror and family drama while exploring the narrative premise of pretending to feel something you don’t actually feelβ€”something that’s emotionally false. This has its pros and cons, which I’ll get to later. Jessica Chastain is spectacular, and the casting is excellent. The story gets right to the point with the supernatural and demons seeking the gods’ gift of humanity.... even if it means using force 😱😱

En frente de cuantos rostros haz fingido amor, felicidad, satisfaccion y regocijo? πŸ€”πŸ€”, estoy seguro que frente a muchos porque es la forma humana de sobrellevar situaciones en las que no queremos herir los sentimientos de esa persona a la cual engaΓ±amos, quizas es porque es muy cercana a nosotros y la hipocresia ayuda a mantener las apariencias 😐😐. Siempre escucho que la honestidad es buena, que es lo correcto pero nada mas alejado de la realidad, de hecho te puede quitar muchas oportunidades en la vida si eres demasiado sincero πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

Other Mommy es un film recien estrenado en Cines al momento de publicar este post, considero cumple a duras penas con mezclar el ser de Terror y familiar a la vez que maneja la premisa narrativa de fingir algo que emocionalmente no se tiene y es falso, esto tiene sus ventajas y desventajas que ya nombrare, Jessica Chastain esta espectacular, muy buen Casting que como historia va directo al grano con lo sobrenatural y demonios queriendo el regalo de los dioses para ser humanos.... así sea por las malas 😱😱

I’m sharing the trailer with youβ€”it perfectly captures the demonic, paranormal vibe the movie tries to convey, but it doesn’t quite pull it off, since I was expecting so much more from it πŸ€”πŸ€”

The formula for entertaining today’s general audiences is prevalent and takes precedence over everything else… the problem is, it thinks too much on viewers who don’t like and don’t want to watch horror πŸ˜‘πŸ˜‘

For me, this storyβ€”directed by Rob Savage and produced by James Wanβ€”wastes a lot of potential. James Wan’s name raised my expectations for this movie, but the plot didn’t quite convince me 🫀🫀

Family Terror, which predominantly features a child character, struggles to be truly terrifyingβ€”that’s exactly what I noticed here: a family-friendly approach that’s far from my favorite, but objectively fits the family-friendly formula that helps fill movie theaters with general audiences who just want to be entertained with a few scares πŸ‘»πŸ‘»

I saw it in theaters, and the girl sitting two seats away from me jumped out of her skin and dropped her popcorn from the scare πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚, I get a real kick out of those kinds of reactions because they really enhance the movie-watching experience. Too bad my friends don’t like horror and won’t accept my invitations to these kinds of movies πŸ« πŸ« β€”which, by the way, are also entertaining. I recommend it for that reason πŸ˜ŒπŸ˜ŒπŸ‘πŸ»

The thing is, for those who are true horror fans... I think they’ll be a little disappointed with this story 😐😐

Les comparto el Trauler que refleja justo la idea paranormal demoniaca que presenta pero no logra ejecutar del todo bien esta pelicula ya que esperaba mucho mas de ella πŸ€”πŸ€”

La ecuacion familiar para divertir a las audiencias generales actuales esta predente y se impone por sobre todas las cosas.... el detalle esta en para que pensar en esas audiencias que no les gusta y no quieren ver Terror πŸ˜‘πŸ˜‘

Para mi hace que pierda mucho potencial esta historia dirigida por Rob Savage y producida por James Wan donde el nombre de este ultimo me dio muchas expectativas para esta pelicula cuya trama no me convencio del todo 🫀🫀

El Terror Familiar que incluye predominantemente a un elemento infantil sufre para ser terrorifica, justo eso noto aqui, un enfoque familiar que esta muy alejado de ser mi favorito pero objetivamente entra en la ecuacion familiar que ayuda a llenar las salas de cine de audiencia general que solo quiere entretenerse con algunos sustos πŸ‘»πŸ‘»

La vi en Cines y la muchacha que estaba a dos puestos de mi, salto exageradamente y boto sus cotufas del susto πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚, me llena de satisfaccion ese tipo de reacciones porque complementan enormemente el visionado de la oelicula, lastima a mis amigas no les gusta el Terror y no me aceptan la invitacion a este tipo de peliculas 🫠🫠 que ademas cumplen con ser entretenidas, te la recomiendo en este aspecto πŸ˜ŒπŸ˜ŒπŸ‘πŸ»

El detalle esta con quienes sí son Fans del Terror.... Puenso que se decepcionaran un poco con esta historia 😐😐

I want to emphasize that I absolutely loved Jessica Chastain playing β€œOther Mommy” and making those soulless faces; I also liked the humorous tone surrounding the character of Daddo, Bela’s father, and I’d like to point out that the people around me laughed at that characterβ€”in fact, you’ll notice in the picture just how silly this family can get πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

But the reflection revolves around family gossip, whose narrative climax is all about pretense, putting on a show, and the hypocrisy of a happiness that isn’t really thereβ€”something I just couldn’t connect with. I only see Jessica Chastain’s character β€œreflecting,” so to speak, but her husband doesn’t give a damn about reflecting and comes across as a total clown to me 🀑🀑

So, sure, Other Mommy exists, and the ending exists too, but the purpose of the story’s reflections didn’t convince me 🫠🫠

It’s an entertaining movie for the whole family, but when it tries to get deep and aim for something more, it falls short for those of us who are fans of horror stories πŸ‘»πŸ‘»

Hago enfasis que Jessica Chastain interpretando a Other Mommy haciendo caras como si no tuviera alma me encanto, el tono de humor en torno al personaje de Daddo el padre de Bela me agrado tambien y destaco que quienes estaban a mi alrededor rieron con ese personaje, de hecho lo notaran en la imagen el tono tonto que llega a tener esta familia πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

Pero la reflexion se desarrolla en torno a un cotilleo familiar cuyo climax narrativo es el fingir, aparentar, la hipocresia de una felicidad no oresente con la cual no conecte, solo veo al personaje de Jessica Chastain reflexionar entre comillas pero su esposo no reflexiona un carajo y se queda como un absoluto payaso para mi 🀑🀑

Entonces claro, Other Mommy existe, el desenlace existe tambien pero el proposito del ente para las reflexiones de la historia no me convencieron 🫠🫠

Pelicula entretenida para todos en familia que cuando quiere volverse profunda y aspirar a mas, pues no lo logra para aquellos que somos fans de las historias de Terror πŸ‘»πŸ‘»

I dedicate each and every one of my posts and videos to my little dog named princess, we called her chiquito, she is no longer with us but from heaven she will see that her existence was valuable and the most beautiful thing that will exist in my heart and soul.

    The idea of mixing family drama with horror is interesting. It is a shame the movie did not meet your expectations.
