Mila Kunis stars as an overworked, underappreciated mom who decides she’s had enough of the constant pressure to be perfect. She makes 2 friends (Kristen Bell and Kathryn Hahn, who creates the movie’s most enjoyable character) and they set out to make the title come true. This is the ultimate chick flick. The audience was almost exclusively women and they were loving it. The script crammed full of F-bombs and wacky acts, much of them funny. As is the fate of many modern movies, it sometimes tries too hard to be outrageous. The mom message gets a bit heavy-handed, but there are moments of genuine sweetness that adds to the appeal. Fun for moms and highly relatable with its amusing approach.
