Moms' Night Out

"Moms' Night Out" kind of failed to punch through as a comedy in this particular genre. And I can honestly say that I didn't laugh a single time throughout the entire movie.

The story is about three house wives who go out to town for a single night of time away from children, chores, house and husbands. But of course things do not turn out as planned.

Story-wise, then "Moms' Night Out" had potential, but it was just lacking comedy and funny moments, and whenever a punchline was being set up, it wasn't brought home with any type of follow-through.

As for the acting, well people were doing good enough jobs with their given roles, but they just had an uphill struggle with the script.

If you enjoy comedies, then there are far better choices available. And I would imagine that you would sit through this only if you are a fan of anyone on the cast list. I can't claim to be, and I found out about that the hard way.

"Moms' Night Out" is a less than mediocre comedy and as such I am rating it 4 out of 10 stars.

This movie is refreshingly wholesome and since I had my 17 year old daughter with me, it was nice not to worry about embarrassing scenes. I thought it was a girls movie, and it would be perfect for a girl's night out, but it was also a movie that would be awesome for a date night if you have young kids. It was funny, and quirky, but it also had moments of deep truth about what it is like to have those "mommie moments" when you just feel like a total out of control mess. It addresses the sense of failure moms with young kids and teenagers often have, and you walk out a little bit renewed. Dad's will gain better understanding of what it is like to be a mom. All of these cute life lessons are wrapped around goofy humor that is a lot of fun. Trace Adkins as a big, burly biker guy was adorable. This is a perfect Mother's Day movie that is totally appropriate for kids too.

It was really refreshing to have a movie that wasn't all SEXED up or have questionable material like most movies do these day. I love the spiritual message that was portrayed.

Not sure what is with all the negative reviews here. This was a GREAT start...

I loved all the characters. I thought the plot was good and there was a lot of funny scenes including a car chase.

However the movie did seem to fizzle a little bit once everyone was arrested. I loved the scene with Trace Atkins and the main character who realizes that she doesn't need to do it all.

Overall... I'd love to see a sequel with Dad's Fishing Day Out or Camping day out... and improve on this franchise...

I find it amusing to read the "reviews" of this film that call it peachy, unfunny with bad acting and no plot. Or the ones that think it's a movie about how moms should just stay in the home because when they don't, things go wrong. I guess you all missed the part of the film where the mom is having a rough time even at home. Give it a rest. You either like the movie, or you don't because you don't like anything that has a Christian forward message.

I have just watched Moms' Night Out with my family as it is one of the very few recently released comedies which has a PG rating suitable for our young ones...

Firstly, I didn't know prior to watching that this was a Christian movie, and if I had known, I doubt I would have watched it. Religion is not my thing.

Secondly, I still didn't realize this was a Christian movie until around two thirds of the way through, and while making me feel a little uncomfortable, as I had invested the time in it and the family seemed to be enjoying it, I stuck with it.

To be honest it was OK, not fantastic, I doubt I'll watch it again, but I have seen much worse. It had a few laughs here and there, and the acting was OK. I gave the movie a 5, it passed away 90 minutes and I didn't feel too robbed at the end as both the wife and kids seemed to enjoy it. But don't go off the 10/10 reviews it's been getting as this isn't Airplane, not by a long shot.....
