Mobile Homes (2017) follows a mother and her young son as they drift between motels with the mother's toxic boyfriend. This was a beautiful and heartfelt film with great meaning. The cast did an amazing job, and the film was so visually stunning! This film felt like The Florida Project (2017) meets Nomadland (2020). Firstly, the cinematography was beautiful and not overwhelming, and the visuals in general were pleasing to the eye. There were a lot of pretty colours and I especially liked the pale blue shots, also the lighting was calm and relaxing. In addition, I liked the framing too. The setting for the film was pretty and a good fit! The sound was fairly good, I wasn't too fussed about the score but it definitely wasn't bad and it fit the mood well. However, I was genuinely very impressed with the sound design as there was a lot of attention to detail and a lot of effort had gone into it. The characters felt so real, and all the acting was impressive and brilliant. This film was an intimate character study of a flawed yet relatable protagonist that was easy to root for. Imogen Poots really gave her best performance in Mobile Homes (2017). The mother-son relationship was beautiful and both actors had a lot of chemistry. I'd also like to mention the costuming, which I really liked too. The film as a whole wasn't consistently engaging, but I still believe it succeeded as a slow-burn. The pacing was very steady and it was packed full of emotional moments. The ending was a nice close to the film and brought me to tears!

Holmcindy- I don't believe Bone her son, ever got on the bus; if you remember, the policeman, when he brought Bone, to the door of the bus, he told him that the driver would watch him and make sure he got home. I think that as soon as the policeman, turned away, thinking he had done his job, the kid bolted back to his mother. What a defeated ending, to this film. I thougt the mother was going to do the right thing, by turning over her child to the police and surrendering to the authorities. The bus ticket was to take Bone home. Where was that; nothing was ever revealed, in the movie. I know Bob seemed to be a decent guy, by helping mother and son, but the last we see of him is chasing Ali and Bone in a high speed chase, down the winding back roads, pulling the mobil home. She seems to lose him, in the chase, before she loses control, of the truck; and skids into the lake, where it is submerged. Does he just give up with the loss of the truck and the multi-thousands worth mobil home and truck? Does she not get caught and pay for her crimes? This movie was believable; up until this point.

This is a very well crafted film with compelling performances all the way around. Imogen is once again outstanding. We see a single mother, her 8 year old son and her criminal boyfriend in a random and aimless series of scams and hustles. The mother found her way here by a series of terrible life choices that are just beginning to have dire consequences for her son who has reached the age for first grade. Her relationship with her boyfriend is simply toxic. He has started to involve the child in his criminal endeavors. The film begs the question, can she turn her and her son's lives around when presented with a good opportunity? Its easy to judge these characters harshly, especially the mother. If that's all one gets from this then one is missing a lot.

Immogen Poots is a decent actress and a beautiful girl but here she has a character that jst isn't very likable. The story itself is a cautionary tale but too bad no one is listening because it has been played before and and is a common one in real life. I have seen it play out in front of my eyes but when I saw it the SOB, worthless, abusive boyfriend was the 40 something year old guy with his own family business and the person that tried to help was the broke one with nothing. At least in that case the girl had an ex-husband that could take the kid. I give it a six because the acting was not bad but the end was rdiculous and the main character herself is just not very likable at all. It's hard to watch a movie where you just want to scream, "You're a ridiculous human," the whole time unless you are watching "The View" which is unwatchable anyway.

Imogen Poots plays a young , poor, submissive mother who gets influenced by her selfish and abusive boyfriend. He uses her and her son to make a buck regardless of morals. If you don't get this low dialog film it may be that you have not lived or seen people living on the lower edge of society. It's gritty & the relationships are edgey & raw. A good watch.
