  ★★★★★ Rewatched 15 Mar 2025

  Looked at lightly, Ma is the grandest and silliest cinematic carnival to come along in quite some time. On a more serious level, its investigation into the power of movies pierces a void from which you can hear the screams of a ravenous demon whose appetites can never be slaked. It is exhilarating for its dreamlike images and fierce, frequently reckless imagination. There’s a mesmerizing quality to its languid pace, its sense of foreboding and its lost-in-time atmosphere. Ma holds us, spellbound and amused, for all of its loony and luscious, exasperating 99 minutes.
