The Good Mother

The Good Mother (2023) is an American crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Marissa hadn't spoken to her son in years. When he turns up murdered, she joins forces with his pregnant girlfriend to learn who pulled the trigger and why.

The search drags both women into the underside of a small upstate New York city, where drugs, debt and corruption knot together. Marissa's other son, a police officer, would rather bury the case quietly. The closer the two get, the darker the truth about the dead man turns. Hilary Swank plays the mother at the edge, with Olivia Cooke and Jack Reynor beside her.

Director Miles Joris-Peyrafitte anchors the film in grief and the opioid epidemic rather than gunfire — a slow, heavy thriller about how far a mother will go. If you watch for Swank, this hands her a bruised, demanding lead. Stream The Good Mother (2023) online on iFILM.
