Review of Mean Mother

Mean Mother (1973)
6/10
Underrated

A very good story, which suffers in the telling. The argument is excellent - two capable young men who seek escape from a cruel world. The dialogue is weak. The plot is strong. The two anti-heroes become involved in underworld schemes that suit their talents until an opportunity for escape appears. It's a low budget tho, so the action at times seems comical. In resolving the central conflict, one of the characters shows real development while the other seems doomed. The score was kinda weak. The young women were attractive, and the director made strong use of them.
