Storyline
Patty McCormack’s “Mommy” is psychotically obsessed with her 12-year-old daughter Jessica Ann -so much so that when she finds out Jessica didn’t get the “Student of the Year” award again, she solves the problem by murdering the teacher who didn’t recommend her for it. She dismisses the killing as inconsequential, but the homicide detective assigned to the case suspects her immediately.

User polls & recommendations
“The movie will never be as good as the book, both because the book goes on longer and because books are internal.”
