- Critics' reviews

-
"Bravo to Brooks for conceiving 'Mother 'and for giving Reynolds a role that required her to do something more than merely effervesce. Here Reynolds bubbles, she boils, she exhibits a complex geology of human emotions."
-
"Though 'Mother' has already collected two prizes for its screenplay, it's really rather thin. If it weren't so slow and repetitious, there'd only be enough whining and grousing for a Seinfeld episode"
-
"The best reason to see 'Mother' is the deliciously off-kilter performance of Debbie Reynolds"
