This was billed as a comedy and it is a heavy depressing drama.
A woman has a very damaged relationship with her dying mother and her subsequent personal relationships are damaged. I watched most of it but it never got better, it was an emotional train wreck. Avoid.

Plot summary
35-year-old Niki is a master of procrastination. Despite (or perhaps just because of) her mother worrying about her daughter's eternity-long teenage phase, Niki refuses to take any major life choices or start any deeper relationships. Niki and her mother can hardly coexist before the scuffle rolls in. As if they were deadly enemies, every word is interpreted, every gesture as a threat or an insult. At the same time, they want nothing more than to be able to communicate with each other. An arrangement that both makes for laughter and tears. But then it goes as well as it goes and suddenly Niki also realizes that it's time to grow up.

Very depressing, in no way a comedy

What a mess.
Another "don't expect dystopia - we're already lining in it" movie.
If you can watch Ring Mamma! with any sense of reward for the time spent - you are commendable. The script isn't all bad and the acting, in very short bursts, is ok. The rest is a mess.
The total lack of connection between the characters is, possibly, an "artists approach". Depicting by means of total lack of connection between film and audience does, however, not deliver.
It's a feel-bad movie - with most of the feel-bad sensation delivered by means of poor filmmaking.

A sign of the time?
If all Millennials are like the characters in this so-called Feelgood movie, then we're doomed even without Climate Crisis... Supposedly a comedy, didn't laugh a bit. Rather felt kinda sad for most of the parts, their lack of focus and generally awkward behaviour. However, as a study of this immature age it has it's dystopic qualities. Some good acting involved though, I'll give it that...
