Critics Consensus: Despite Sandra Oh's typically strong performance and glimmers of potential from writer-director Iris K. Shim, Umma is a cliché-ridden missed opportunity.

Reviews

Loud and Clear Reviews

Hector A. Gonzalez

Umma is a tale of past generational trauma that is unfortunately bogged down by half-baked set pieces and horror clichés.

Though it has an intriguing premise, Umma leaves little to be desired, with a lukewarm script and ineffective jump scares.
