Women feel so much pressure to be the perfect mom and make sure that everything is always set for their kids, but this movie asks the question, what happens if they just stop?
Amy Mitchell (Mila Kunis) has a packed schedule and has a lot to balance with work and her kids Jane (Oona Laurence) and Dylan (Emjay Anthony). When she finds out her husband Mike (David Walton) is cheating on her, she teams up with fellow moms Kiki (Kristen Bell) and Carla (Kathryn Hahn) to give up the act of being a good mom.
Kunis is absolutely hilarious and relatable as her character constantly makes mistakes. Christina Applegate costars as perfect mom Gwendolyn James, and while her character is perhaps exaggerated, she feels like someone everyone knows and hates.
Final say: Bad Moms is so good. ★★★★☆
