Can you smash the mirror?

Confusing ,not derivative ,but not always satisfying psychological drama; the wide screen is sometimes reduced to a small rectangle, probably to indicate that the mirror of the title reflects some events of the past .Except for the moment when the hero smashes it, a la Who's "Tommy ", the mirror trick is not really convincing.The characters are interesting but their attitude does not always make much sense ; a mother who marries a younger man , it has become common nowadays ;but the husband remains at the beck and call of his over possessive mother ;to crown it all , the wife committed suicide because,after embracing Buddhism without a moment's hesitation , she reached nirvana ; funny wisdom, isn't it?The husband and the son (with his girlie on tug) claim the legacy ,but the latter,who has not seen his mom for five years , has a dark side to him: a terrible secret buried in his past ....
