I thought this movie was very well thought out. I've met many people in my life like the characters in this movie.
The rutterless but attractive ballet dancer mom; the grandmother who's just trying to making it through life. And the hot adult son who's suddenly struggling with his attraction to a hot mom he's never met. Yes, these are the kinds of circumstances that happen in real life among people who are seemingly "normal" - not low-lifes of society.
We in the U. S. tend to have a myopic view of our society. There are many countries in the world where this taboo love among consenting adults is acceptable (and not even a crime). Watch this movie from this perspective.
The ending was surprising to me. Usually movies with this subject matter end on a note that usually communicates the sex/attraction between family members was a bad decision resulting in horrible endings. But here, we see the movie end with mom pregnant (presumably with her adult son's child) and having the baby and life moving on. That ending was certainly not expected.
I prefer hot sex in some of the movies I watch that push the envelope, and this one didn't disappoint. There's a great scene where mom helps him with homework by going down on him. And another scene where she masturbates with objects from his room.. I thought the sex scene where they finally come together to have sex could have been done better, but I understand that the movie was trying to be artsy.
Overall, good story/plot, great acting (especially grandma) and great taboo subject matter that is neither glorified nor revolted against IMHO. The cinematography was fantastic - gave the movie a sense of surrealism.
If you enjoy movies that push the envelope and are not your every day, mainstream crap, then this movie may be up your alley..
