Oh, mother!

Walmart's paean to modern motherhood is so full of inconvenient truths that it could be a film warning about the seriousness of postpartum depression... if it wasn't so damn funny.

Director Mark Zibert has thrown every kitchen sink he could find at this and when he ran out, he found some more and threw those at it too.

The effect is mesmerising... three minutes that will pass in the blink of an eye while offering as truthful an account of the many lows and the occasional highs of parenthood which - in an act of unlikely mathematics - somehow manage to even out.
