Moviegoers are saying
This powerful Muslim and Pakistani cinema entry has critics calling it a landmark achievement that Marvel foolishly passed on, with Mahershala Ali delivering breathtaking performances in what's being described as 'Blade with the numbers filed off' - but richer and more spiritually complex. While some find it unwieldy, most are mesmerized by its elegant cinematography, tender lighting of dark skin, and profound exploration of faith versus revenge.

    Funny that the consensus is “Marvel fumble” like it’s even in the cards that Marvel could make something half as good as this.

    There’s a shot of Mahershala Ali’s face in this that’s so breathtaking that you’re just like damn this is why they make movies.  Anyhow, really good stuff. A devout Muslim as the Sword of God striking down Christian charlatans. Insane movie. It’s also just a beautiful…

The idea of a righteous man fighting dirty on behalf of the innocent is hardly new, but Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother could’ve felt fresh if it confronted its central taboos surrounding sex and gender—among Muslims, Texans, and men in general—instead of merely winking at their existence amid the flying blades and bullets.

It’s something of a miracle that the film doesn’t spiral out of the control, but Tariq, aided by an impressively stoic turn by Ali, has a firm hand on his vision.

Even the action sequences carry emotional weight, with every hit tied to something much more personal. By the time Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother reaches its final stretch, the film has become something far more tender than its premise initially suggests.
