Uma Noite de Loucuras

Listen, if you are a parent, you will love this movie. The characters are REAL! They're just like you! (But they're WAY FUNNIER!) I laughed often and well and I identified with so much. The actors are all fantastic (except that guy from Maroon 5 who is just OK.) Bridgett Everett is amazing. Toni Colette is amazing. Rob Huebel is amazing.

Its clever and lovely and the soundtrack is fantastic.

If you don't have kids, or you're born after 1995, you should probably watch something else because you just wont get it.

This film tells the story of four mothers, who are not best friends until they go for a dinner together, away from their children and husbands. It has been a long time since they have had fun, and they make full use of their valuable break from domestic duties.

"Fun Mom Dinner" wants to be another "Bad Moms", but I guess it has not worked as magically as planned. The jokes are not that funny, and the characters are not very sympathetic. The two fathers having a heart to heart talk in the backyard is actually more interesting to watch than the mothers who enjoy themselves. I guess the things these mothers do are a bit too ordinary, and not raunchy or outrageous enough for a comedy.

As a Gen-X mom, which is clearly the target audience, I wanted to like it. But the overly done millennial obsession with drugs wrecked the entire thing. Seriously wanted to like it but ugh! Just missed the mark. Sorry, try again.

Just realize what bothered me the most about this movie. Thee women are in the late 49s, early 50s. WAY too old to be moms of preschoolers. Grandmothers maybe..... course you can't find a funny cast in the early to mid 30s, Gen Z has NO sense of humor.

I give a movie a chance all the way through,before deciding on it.. Had relatable parts but,bottomline 10% was enjoyable. Won't be something,to watch again. Although it did have,some decent cast members.

This is a good film for Saturday evening when you don't have anything better to do or you don't know what to do with yourself.

I can not say that it was funny - to me it was not, but it was entertaining and that is what - at the end of the day - I ask of the film. I guess those married with kids may appreciate it more.

The fun fact is seeing Maroon 5 leader in it. The other 4 moms were OK in their roles, with the biggest mom being the funniest. The dads were kinda ... too non substentinal.

The scene with kids on the boat was kinda what the hell is going on here? And...when did she lose the phone? I guess they did not know how to make a film of 80 minutes so they added some scenes which can be totally different film.

All in all, it was O.K. My rating is 5,6 (6).

The music was good.
