Trivia
According to the director, this film has been over six years in the making.

Goofs
When Marissa and Paige are in the department store browsing around, Paige gets a text message from Jeremy stating that his grandpa saw the killing.

She then asks him if they can interview the grandpa right now. Jeremy answered yes but he has to leave for work in an hour.

This is the first promising lead they have had and they only had an hour window but despite that, instead of rushing out, they continue shopping and buy a few things as evident by the shopping bags they are carrying as they exit the store. This makes no sense when you take into account the aforementioned situation.

Quotes
Toby: I'll get Ducky. I promise.

Catch it at home, don't see in theatres.

It's not a bad movie, but whether we like it or not there is a style of movie that we are now used to seeing on the big screen and a style of movie that we are used to seeing at home.

Not just the Marvel movies but Horror movies, expensive sci-f films and comedies are more for the theatre atmosphere. The Good Mother feels like the type of movie that I'm deciding whether to pay for when it comes up on my Amazon Prime Video account.

I don't want it to seem like i did not like the movie. It was a good crime drama, that had some pretty good acting. It was a slow drama that went by too fast, but it was a cool story to unravel, and I would recommend paying the money to see it in the comfort of your own home.
