Movie Reviews of Big Bad Mama - Special Edition
Movie Review: Action, Sex and Comedy, Who Could Want More?
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is the perfect example of why Roger Corman's movies always made money: good stories, beautiful women and action sequences that combined tension, speed and comedy. Big Bad Mama is the story of one woman who wanted something better for her kids than what she had, and the lengths she would go to in order to achieve that. Her resolution of the problem may not fit in with the better element's view of right and wrong, or propriety and morality, but then again, it was the society the better element carved out that had so imprisoned her and her family. What other choice did she really have? Angie Dickinson is fabulous as a woman who has seen clearly that the life she is leading is a dead end, and that the only recourse is to bust free. Her daughters, taking their cue from mom, embrace the life of taking what you want, whether it is money, men or fast cars. And, all three get plenty of all three. What sets this movie apart from others of the same genre is that the sex, guns and fun are a realistic (an exaggerated reality yes, but then what is Angie Dickinson if not an exaggerated reality?) extrapolation of the story and not just a series of disjointed and pointless adventures. It is a great ride with a great lady.
