What to Know

Critics Consensus

Bad Moms boasts a terrific cast and a welcome twist on domestic comedy -- and they're often enough to compensate for the movie's unfortunate inability to take full advantage of its assets.

Jess Kibler Bitch Media I wasn't expecting some sort of deep, philosophical dive into motherhood from this film. I was simply expecting to laugh maybe once. Feb 11, 2021 Full Review Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online It has no substance; it doesn't say anything. Rated: C Mar 21, 2017 Full Review Rebecca Hawkes Daily Telegraph (UK) A little more vinegar... and Bad Moms could have been a genuinely subversive comedy, rather than just a sweetly funny one. Rated: 3/5 Aug 29, 2016 Full Review Grant Watson Fiction Machine If nothing else it represents 100 minutes in the company of several very funny comic actors. That hardly seems a terrible way to spend your time. Rated: 6/10 Jul 7, 2024 Full Review Emma Clark-Dow The Post NZ Although the plot may sound simple in its nature, it’s amazing how much self-described bad moms can do. Jul 18, 2022 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy MILF (Movie I'd Like to Forget). Rated: 2/4 Aug 18, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Nathan J. Rating: 6.7/10 A fun, relatable comedy with great chemistry between Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, and Kathryn Hahn. Highlights - Relatable Premise: Explores pressure on modern mothers, resonating with audiences. - Great Chemistry: Lead trio delivers hilarious, heartfelt performances. - Energetic Humor: R-rated comedy lands more often than not, thanks to Hahn's delivery. Criticisms - Predictable Plot: Formulaic story with few surprises. - One-Dimensional Characters: Villains and male characters feel caricatured or underutilized. - Flat Visuals: Resembles a sitcom rather than a cinematic feature. Verdict A solid comedy elevated by its cast, particularly Kathryn Hahn. Fun, cathartic, and entertaining, but predictable and sometimes crude. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/21/25 Full Review Ransom P Love this movie. Amazing. humor Phenomenal plot great story Telling. 10/10 would recommend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/12/25 Full Review Ed R I guess this would appeal more to the niche market of mothers. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Jim E Funny stuff of reality! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/14/25 Full Review Audience Member If there was 1 movie to appreciate your mom. This was it for me. Actually watched it with my mom once.. turned to her at the end and said thank you. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/12/24 Full Review Julie M Clearly written by men. Characters were stereotypical and cartoonish. The only reason I gave it any stars is that it was cast well. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/04/24 Full Review Read all reviews
