Ma (2019)

“Ma” (2019 release; 99 min.) brings the story of Maggie and her HS friends, and Sue Ann. As the movie opens, Maggie and her mom arrive with their moving van somewhere in Ohio, Even though Maggie is new, she makes friends at school in no time. The “Group of Five” soon try to by alcohol, and eventually Sue Ann, a veterinary assistant who happens to walk by, agrees to buy the alcohol.

Couple of comments: this is the latest Blumhouse Production, which has built a very strong niche for inexpensive but well-made scary and horror movies. This one is directed (and co-written) by Tate Taylor, who recently also gave us “The Girl On the Train”. And last but not least, the movie’s lead is none other than Octavia Spencer. When you take all elements into consideration, I felt reasonably certain that “Ma” might be worth checking out. 

Alas, I couldn’t have been more wrong. From almost the get-go, things happen that are frankly implausible (5 high school kids accept invitation of complete stranger to “hang out in the basement”, literally, and many more examples I will not mention so as not to spoil), In addition, there is nothing scary in the movie. I thought this was supposed to be scary movie? Octavia Spencer, bless her heart, tries the best that she can with the material that she is given (which isn’t much). By the time we are an hour into the movie, I frankly had completely given up on this film, as I wasn’t interested in any of the characters, and did I mention the movie isn’t scary in the least? But I decided to stick it out until the very (bitter) end. I shouldn’t have…

“Ma” opened wide this weekend. The Saturday matinee screening where I saw this at here in Cincinnati was attended okay but not great (about 15 people), although the picture perfect Spring weather may have been a factor. I cannot recommend “may” to anyone in good conscience, but of course I encourage you to check it out, be it in the theater, on VOD, or eventually on DVD/Blu-ray, and draw your own conclusion.
