7/10
A Fun Watch with Splendid Performances!
17 November 2016
Its sad that Hilary Clinton lost the elections recently, because women empowerment is the need of the day! And with 'Bad Moms', you just can't stop rooting for them! Build on a good heart, this recent box-office smash hit, is a fun watch with all of its performers putting in their very best. A Good Laugh is guaranteed!

'Bad Moms' Synopsis: When three overworked and under-appreciated moms are pushed beyond their limits, they ditch their conventional responsibilities for a jolt of long overdue freedom, fun, and comedic self-indulgence.

'Bad Moms' is about Mothers & how they manage to raise their kids, sometimes their husbands & also run the house on their merit. And if you push their buttons beyond a point, they sure will break loose & party like a mother. The film nicely blends some really funny humor with its heartfelt message to all the mothers around the world. Of course, the film isn't perfect, but its intention with the touch of comedy, do the trick.

Jon Lucas & Scott Moore's Screenplay is good, although the sub-plots (particularly Mila running for PTA elections), don't engage much. Nonetheless, its fun watching these moms have fun. Lucas & Moore's Direction, on the other-hand, is well-done.

Another prime reason why 'Bad Moms' works so well is because of its splendid cast. Mila Kunis is absolutely fantastic as the central mom here, delivering an affecting & genuinely lovable performance from start to end. Kristen Bell melts your heart with her cute portrayal of a timid women, while Kathryn Hahn is unabashedly brash all through & also brings in the best laughs. Christina Applegate is terrific as the antagonist. She's deliciously mean! Jada Pinkett Smith & Annie Mumolo as Applegate's vamps do well, but I wish they got as much scope as Applegate. Jay Hernandez is in fine form after a long time. Clark Duke is first-rate, as always.

On the whole, 'Bad Moms' is definitely worth your time.
