Receptionedit
Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian rated the film 4 stars out of 5.[4] Diego Semerene of Slant Magazine rated the film 3 stars out of 4 and calling it a "lovely film about feminine strength that also refuses to glorify motherhood."[5] Guy Lodge of Variety wrote, "An unsentimental but stoically anguished portrait of a tough single mother and two vulnerable sons settling (or not) in France from the Ivory Coast, it shows how the immigrant experience can equally tighten the knot between parent and child, or permanently unravel it."[6] Ben Croll of TheWrap wrote that the film "plays on the most intimate of registers"[7] Stephanie Bunbury of Deadline Hollywood wrote a positive review of the film.[8]
Wendy Ide of Screen Daily wrote that "although Mother And Son loses some of its energy as it unfolds, it is still a sensitive and complex examination of the shifting tensions in a migrant family."[9] Lovia Gyarkye of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the film "contains moving strokes", but "struggles to make a lasting emotional dent."[10] Sophie Monks Kaufman of Little White Lies wrote that the writing "cannot match the poignancy of Lengronne's performance."[11]
