Mafia Mamma has a demure and submissive woman finding her mojo as the newly crowned leader of an Italian crime family. The action-comedy never finds its footing by swinging wildly through jumbled themes. You cheer for female empowerment, gag at the unexpectedly bloody carnage, and chuckle slightly at borderline offensive stereotypes. The film mocks mob classics like The Godfather but isn't particularly clever doing it. A rote and predictable script never recovers from a second act lull. The supremely talented Toni Collette tries her best to rescue the narrative.
