Director:

Plot:
When three overworked and under-appreciated moms are pushed beyond their limits, they ditch their conventional responsibilities for a jolt of long overdue freedom, fun, and comedic self-indulgence.
Review:
I thought this was going to be a movie about a mom deciding to stop being “perfect” and that’s what it was mainly, but there was a whole side story about her getting a divorce and then an evil PTA mom that was just a huge downer. I get that there needed to be conflict but the dad was a total douche to the point where you couldn’t figure out why she’d ever been with him and the PTA mom was a conniving bitch. I also thought that Kunis let her kids walk all over her.
I wanted to like this movie so much and there were parts that I did, but overall I don’t get the hype. There was just too much side story negativity.
Oh and when she had sex with the one dude and he asked to go down on her again all I could do was roll my eyes. I kept waiting for her to wake up. It was too over the top.
The whole job thing was also really stupid too.
I really think the movie would have been better if it had been about real moms and not rich women. I feel like they missed out on so many stresses of motherhood.
2.5/5
