Annette Bening gives one of her most enigmatic and painfully frank performances yet that cuts direct to the core.
January 09, 2012
Bening and Watts are good enough to see it through, and it's good to see Jackson actually play his age for once.
June 04, 2010
Obviously, this is emotionally rich ground and Garcia plows it perhaps a bit too heavily.
London Evening Standard
January 06, 2012
Bening, consistently one of the best US screen actresses, is really the main reason to keep you watching.
June 04, 2010
If Garcia's film never quite catches up with his ambitions for it, well, at least he's trying.
April 08, 2012
For the first time in a very long while, Bening disappears into a character and turns in a performance that isn't about her shamelessly playing to the rafters to grab after Oscar.

What keeps the whole thing from toppling into an abyss of unwatchable TV drama histrionics is a pair of dynamite performances from Annette Bening and Naomi Watts.

June 03, 2010
A thoughtful and provocative film about the way we live now.
January 07, 2012
Mother and Child reminds us how important the notion of lineage - of finding a discernible path through life that doesn't just begin and end with ourselves - is to our personal identity, and the decisions we make in life.
July 07, 2010
Mother and Child is a compassionate, multi-threaded tale about the lives of everyday women -- though this time, they are more explicitly defined by the primal bond of the title.
June 02, 2010
[Garcia] lets the picture start to go soft in the middle, and teary melodrama floods in like water from a broken dam.
