Opisy(1)
Dziesięcioletni bracia bliźniacy, Lucas i Elias, spędzają wakacje w letnim domu. Są nierozłączni i niemal identyczni, mimo że jeden wygląda na bardziej strachliwego i wrażliwszego, ulega szalonym pomysłom nieokiełznanego brata. Ich matka wraca ze szpitala z twarzą owiniętą bandażami. Rozdrażniona, nieszczęśliwa i obolała nie przypomina dawnej słodkiej mamy, wprowadza we wspólne życie nowe zasady. Chłopcy z dnia na dzień nabierają podejrzeń, że nie jest tą, za którą się podaje. Tworzą opozycyjny front wobec jej coraz bardziej agresywnych zachowań. By odkryć, co stoi za obcością matki, sięgną po drastyczne środki. (Nowe Horyzonty)

"Goodbye, Mom" is a beautiful example of how horror movies can still surprise, that there is room for them to be disgusting, but also room for them to astonish their viewers. The twist ultimately may not be original, but in that moment, it can hit hard, and furthermore, the final outcome can be interpreted in another way. "Goodbye, Mom" is a film that definitely deserves attention, not only from horror fans.

From the beginning, the transparent point suggests that the filmmakers will get to it through the clever psychological game of the central trio. However, the mistake is that the viewer gets a speechless flick where absolutely nothing works except the brotherly acting interplay, meaning that it amounts to a hundred minutes of boredom that culminates in an unintentional geyser of ridiculousness because the exploitation is absolutely off after there being zero motivations.

This comment contains hints of spoilers. Well made and very effective and unsettling in some details, but I had one major problem with it, I couldn’t figure out what the creators wanted me to think, because ten minutes in and everything as clear as the water in an Alpine lake. If their intention was to surprise and hide the twist, they failed in the direction, because in many scenes the twist screams “hey, I’m here!”, but on the other hand, if they wanted to play with the viewer’s expectations about similar horror films, then they failed in the script because the build-up towards the core mystery doesn’t work out and you get bored. That said, I think it’s effective in the last act, and the early reveal of the twist actually helps it.
