Needless to say that I had never actually heard about the 1976 movie titled "The Muthers" prior to stumbling upon it by random chance here in 2024. And of course I opted to sit down and watch the movie, on account of it being a movie that I hadn't already seen.
Of course I had no particular expectations to the movie, as I had no idea what I was in for here.
Writers Cirio H. Santiago and Cyril St. James put together a pretty straightforward script here, though the storyline was bland and generic. If you've seen one exploitation movie before, then you know what you're in for here and also what you're getting. So yeah, the writers didn't exactly impress me with the storyline they concocted for this movie.
I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list. The acting performances in the movie were a bag of mixed nuts, because some of the performances were rather wooden and rigid, whereas other performances were actually fair enough when taking into consideration the type of movie that "The Muthers" is.
The fight scenes throughout the movie are pretty stages and looks laughable most of the time. And I will say that the poorly choreographed and executed fight scenes in "The Muthers" actually makes is worthwhile sitting through 83 minutes of an otherwise bland storyline.
"The Muthers" is not a movie that entertained me much. And it definitely is not a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time. But I am sure that for fans of the exploitation genre, then "The Muthers" is a good movie.
My rating of director Cirio H. Santiago's 1976 movie "The Muthers" lands on a three out of ten stars.
