Like how every pop culture thing eventually has the "mom version" which is about how infuriating kids are and luckily we have wine and coffee!! It's just so base. oh yeah the lame moms who want no sugar or fat or eggs at the bake sale, hilarious, let's make a movie about them!



WOW. Someone took this WAY too personally. Hit home, did it? Lemme guess. You are the Christina Applegate character? Surprise! Everyone had you pegged, long before the movie. They are just nice to your face to stay off your extremely distorted radar.


Internet commenters like you are so weird.

The rage is just a tad misplaced, isn't it?


Like the rage in the movie? Hmmm? Interesting.

Just watched it last night. Unexpectedly funny. Kathryn Hahn makes the entire film, she's hilarious! Get your tits up girls!

The PTA does not have THAT much power, though. I mean, c'mon.

And for as crazed as Mila's mom life was, her hair and make-up sure we're on point the whole way through. Again...c'mon!!


You do NOT live in Great Falls My friend dared speak to the principal about the idea of tailgates and when she went to the next PTA meeting of officers (she was one), they put chairs out for everyone but her. She was thrown off the island for not consulting them with an idea first. They all iced her out of their lives.

Oh good grief. Not the PP, but I live in GF and can't imagine this happening. What school are you talking about?

Sorry, must have been McLean. All sorts of rampant PTA hyperbole and subterfuge running amok.

Definitely needed a good belly laugh and this movie delivered. Hahn is a genius. Kristen is hysterical and the best scenes were just Hahn, Kristen and Mila together.

Mila wasn't quite a believable "Amy" for me. That's the mom who's struggling to get her shit together? She looks pulled together from head to toe and has a beautiful home (inside and out) by 32 despite becoming pregnant at 20 and only working 3 days a week at a coffee company??

Loved the bit at the end with the actresses and their real life moms. That was perfect!

I think there's a lot of women out there who "look" pulled together but behind closed doors are a mess. And didn't she only get paid for 3 days a week, but worked a ton more? When she had breakfast to herself that one scene, I had the impression that was the first time she did that because she actually hadn't worked part time.

Yes even my husband laughed through this movie once he got over the pouting of watching a "chick flick". Very funny! I absolutely loved the end when the actresses' moms were interviewed with them.

I'm all about funny movies that mirror my life, but this one was not it. Lots of mom cliches, bad writing and just not believable, as the there have said. Jay Hernandez is hot though.

I wish the writing had been better. Also, Kathryn Hahn rocks.

Yes widow dad was HOT and Kathryn Hahn definitely made the movie. Why is she not leading lady in more of these comedies?

see I am in the minority I guess. I thought it was awful and was trying WAY too hard-to the point of torture (for me at least) I went with a friend and we both were so happy when it was over.

I think the nasties IRL tend to hide their private faces while in public, as a general rule. Hope you are not one.

what are "nasties"? It is a stupid movie and has no resemblance of real life. No clue who you are spending time with but perhaps get some new friends (assuming you have some and not just making judgement calls about people from afar).
