This movie was going very strong until Mama's reveal. The atmosphere, style and subtlety of it all were going great for it and then they displayed Mama front and center and killed the whole thing for me.
Why does mama suddenly not care AT ALL about her own lost baby? How are they going to explain one of the children going poof and turning into moths? Or the death of their aunt? The movies wrapped up with a feel good ish ending, but if you think about it they most likely lost custody of that child.
I actually would have preferred them killing/destroying Mama, and then her hand coming out of the floor or something at the end. At least that would have made it seem like a horror movie. I'm not angry that they fled from the genre-typical ending, I'm angry that they did it in such a stupid fashion.
While there are plenty of lush gothic flourishes, there are also too many ridiculous horror tropes, but the quality of the acting - especially from child leads Megan Charpenter and Isabelle Nelisse - leads to several genuinely emotional scenes that distinguish Mama from the teen-horror crowd.
