20 Best Netflix Original Movies Of 2019 - Ranked

7. I Am Mother

It's quite hard to believe that I Am Mother was produced on a low budget (presumably less than $50 million, but an exact number hasn't been disclosed) because its incredible effects look like they cost blockbuster money.

The movie's production design, sound effects, cinematography and lighting are all top-notch, really coming together to craft a rich futuristic world that's backed up by strong performances from Hilary Swank and newcomer Clara Rugaard, who plays a teenage girl being raised by an intelligent robot called Mother.

There are a few annoyances in the story and it does feel rushed towards the end, but I Am Mother is a triumph overall, a sumptuous sci-fi gem that is as engrossing as it is beautiful.
