Everybody's welcome at Ma's. But good luck getting home safe. Sue Ann (Oscar® winner Octavia Spencer) is a lonely woman who keeps to herself in a quiet Ohio town. When a local teenage girl asks Sue Ann to buy some booze for her group of friends, she decides to make some new friends of her own and offers her basement for the kids to party. They just have to follow a few simple house rules: Someone has to stay sober. Don't curse. Never go upstairs. And call her "Ma." As Ma's hospitality curdles into obsession, what began as a teenage dream turns into a terrorizing nightmare, and Ma's place goes from the best place in town to the worst place on earth.

Critics Consensus: Octavia Spencer's performance overpowers many of Ma's flaws, but uneven pacing and a labored story keep this thriller from fully realizing its unhinged potential.

Rotten

…even when the action gets rather too sadistic for comfort, and there’s some nasty stuff here in Ma, Spencer relishes the task of taking her kindly features and seems to enjoy suggesting considerable malice lurking behind that familiar smile…

Rotten

It forsakes the potential of its chaotic set-up in favour of high school drama, past and present, and a shallow anti-bullying message that doesn’t feel nearly as layered as it ought to have been.

Fiction Machine

Rotten

It is as dreadful mess, but worse still it is a dull one.

Ma is an interesting take on the consequences of high school bullying. It is great at allowing the viewers to see it through the eyes of the victim, Sue Ann, and even understand how it deeply affected her...

Overall, I did not really enjoy watching the film nor can I recommend it.
