Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother left the theater in my area really quickly. I could not make the first week and, after that, it was one showing, late at night. I was unable to see it in the theater even though I would have liked to see it there.

It showed up on Fandango at Home recently, and I was able to rent it tonight. Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother starred Mahershala Ali, John Cho, Giancarlo Esposito and Aida.

According to IMDB, “Follows Latif, a devoutly religious hitman, who embarks on a desperate journey across Houston to protect his children after his wife dies, confronting forces closing in and beliefs threatening to unravel.“

This film goes hard with the violence from Latif (Ali) as well as the religious aspect of the Muslim world. I found this especially impressive considering how much of a hypocrite the character of Latif was in many situations. He was just out to protect his kids and to get milk for his baby, but he would commit acts that placed him in opposition to the religion that he taught.

The moral dilemma for the character was one of the most fascinating parts of the film. So was the performance of John Cho, who played Pastor Hwan, a leader of the Charismatic Christian faith, and the conflict was fully engaged.

I thought this was extremely well acted and had some great visual action. Mahershala Ali used skills that he picked up while preparing to play Blade in the MCU (which never came about) and he was severely kick ass.

Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother was definitely worth the wait and the rental from Fandango.
