Bad Moms

"Bad Moms" was a movie that I was actually looking forward to getting a chance to sit down and watch because I like Mila Kunis, but also because Kathryn Hahn and Christina Applegate were starring in it.

This is the type of comedy movie that you just know will not challenge your intellect, so it is just basically lean well back in the chair and enjoy the ride. I found "Bad Moms" to actually be better than I had anticipated it to be, so that was a good surprise.

The storyline is quite simplistic really. A group of mothers are fed up with the way that they have to live their lives and perform up to the expectations of every other mother in the PTA group. This liberation leads to a much needed freedom, fun, and comedic self-indulgence.

There is a lot of hilarious moments and situations throughout the course of the movie, and the comedy is served to the audience in terms of both practical and visual comedy, but also by some outrageous and funny dialogue.

While Mila Kunis actually did a great job in this movie, she was just outshone by Kathryn Hahn and her performance here. The movie was so well carried by the female cast, though again I will credit most of the lifting to Kathryn Hahn.

"Bad Moms" is a very funny and entertaining movie, and if you enjoy comedies where there are little limitations. There might be situations that some people will find to be a bit too much, but hey, this is an R-rated movie.

This is also the type of comedy that you can watch again, although I would say that some time should definitely pass in between such multiple viewings. This is hardly a comedy classic, but it still a very enjoyable and entertaining comedy.

"In this day and age it's impossible to be a good mom." Amy (Kunis) is doing her best to juggle being a mom and having a career. Things begin to pile up and finally hits a breaking point when she is asked to be on a PTA board. Now, taking back control of her life her and her new friends stand up to Gwendolyn (Applegate) and the other perfect moms and let everyone know that it's OK not to be perfect. This is a movie I was was hoping would be funny, but being a guy I wasn't the target audience and wasn't sure if I would relate. I was wrong. This movie is hilarious regardless of what sex your are and being a single dad I can also relate to some of what was being said. At the risk of sounding chauvinistic (which is not my intention) this is a raunchy male sex comedy starring women. The thing this has going for it over most movies like this is that the message doesn't get lost in the comedy and really helps add to the overall enjoyment of this. Overall, one of the funniest movies of the year and one that men and women will both love. That is hard to do in a movie like this. I give this an A.

Thanks to IMDB recommendations, I found this movie and I wish I'd known about it earlier!

Mila Kunis, Kathryn Hahn (especially - she is an absolute riot with some of the best lines in the movie!) and Kristen Bell (she plays straitlaced Kiki perfectly) are laugh-out-loud funny as three overworked Chicago suburb mothers who decide to be bad mums for a little while, with hilarious results.

There are some hilarious moments in this movie, especially the scenes featuring Kunis' Amy and Christina Applegate's Gwendolyn, the perfect overlord of the PTA.

Brilliant soundtrack, too. The 1hr 40min movie raced by, and I was disappointed when it ended.

Don't expect anything new or mind-blowing - it is simply 90 minutes of pure fun. No sophisticated plot - mother of 2 is having hard time balancing her kids, husband and work, so she decides to quit trying to do everything perfect. She stops helping kids with their homework or making their breakfast, kicks out her sort of cheating husband and decides to run for PTA president with help of two new friends - one divorced cougar and one meek housewife. Rated R - only because of strong language, which is not surprising - you can kill 100 people on screen and still be PG, but if you use C*word - you get R-rated ;) Watch it and have fun, brain-relaxing experience.

In your own head you are not only supermom you are also a martyr that would sacrifice everything for your family.

You are ridiculously hot, you do everything at home and at work (literally) and without you the world would come crumbling down, yet you are under appreciated and treated like dirt.

All in 6 inch heels, flawless make-up and not a hair out of place...

The movie is what Hollywood thinks soccormoms fantasy themselves as. They would break away from their roles and be "bad girls" for a day and that would bring balance back to the force.

I didn't mind the cliché however the humor here is really either hit or miss. You'll either stare in silence at the screen going "what? was that supposed to be a joke? It looked painful/offensive/silly" then there are the jokes that land and those are really funny in comparison... they don't happen often enough to cover for the bad jokes though.

Harmless enough of a movie if there is nothing else on but otherwise I wouldn't recommend it.
