Why does "Mother" have to sleep to recharge her batteries? And why so long? Why not just swap battery packs?

Next, why unpack those embryos one at a time? If Mother's job is to raise a perfect person, the psychological impact of loneliness would drive a kid-teen to madness or at least stunt their mental growth.

If they are trying to make a good human, why do it one at a time and take so long doing it? Each embryo is born in 30 days sure but we assume that the girl has been there for 18 years. Since there are at least 4 others before her, its easy to say Mother's been at this for at least 30-40 years.

Since there is so much food and resources then many "Mothers" raising many people would make more sense.

OK movie, decent tension, great visual effects, and "Mother" looked like it was designed from Boston Dynamics - neat! But otherwise...

Yes good points. I also hate when they just pick up in a post apocalyptic world with no back story. Was the woman who came in through the airlock one of the original embryos? There are a lot of things that make me scratch my head here
