I'm not sure what's going on in this film, but it does grip you because the characters are well-defined and the acting is terrific.

From start to finish, it’s an original, wholly unpredictable experience. It’s also, by turns, gripping, provocative, head-scratching and disturbing, and is likely to divide viewers with its dreamlike ambitions and metaphorical musings.

Mother, Couch captures something real about family and aging, but it remains unsatisfactory.

Mother, Couch spends too much time with nothing happening. Conversations start but go nowhere. Everything is implied but nothing is confirmed... The ending comes out of nowhere and doesn’t feel at all earned. Worse, it resolves nothing!
