"Mommy" is a case study in behavioral issues in young adults and the systems that are in place in which to “protect” them. It's an uncomfortable and brooding march into oblivion with feel-good moments sparingly sprinkled throughout. Up-and-coming French-Canadian director Xaiver Dolan brings an exuberance and progressive style of filmmaking to the table that matches his youthfulness. Admittedly, this was my first Dolan experience and it left me on the verge of tears. I was supremely impressed, to say the least.
