Fun Mom Dinner

Listen, if you are a parent, you will love this movie. The characters are REAL! They're just like you! (But they're WAY FUNNIER!) I laughed often and well and I identified with so much. The actors are all fantastic (except that guy from Maroon 5 who is just OK.) Bridgett Everett is amazing. Toni Colette is amazing. Rob Huebel is amazing.

Its clever and lovely and the soundtrack is fantastic.

If you don't have kids, or you're born after 1995, you should probably watch something else because you just wont get it.

I give a movie a chance all the way through,before deciding on it.. Had relatable parts but,bottomline 10% was enjoyable. Won't be something,to watch again. Although it did have,some decent cast members.

As a Gen-X mom, which is clearly the target audience, I wanted to like it. But the overly done millennial obsession with drugs wrecked the entire thing. Seriously wanted to like it but ugh! Just missed the mark. Sorry, try again.

Just realize what bothered me the most about this movie. Thee women are in the late 49s, early 50s. WAY too old to be moms of preschoolers. Grandmothers maybe..... course you can't find a funny cast in the early to mid 30s, Gen Z has NO sense of humor.

This film tells the story of four mothers, who are not best friends until they go for a dinner together, away from their children and husbands. It has been a long time since they have had fun, and they make full use of their valuable break from domestic duties.

"Fun Mom Dinner" wants to be another "Bad Moms", but I guess it has not worked as magically as planned. The jokes are not that funny, and the characters are not very sympathetic. The two fathers having a heart to heart talk in the backyard is actually more interesting to watch than the mothers who enjoy themselves. I guess the things these mothers do are a bit too ordinary, and not raunchy or outrageous enough for a comedy.

I wasn't too sure about watching this movie, but it was everything I wanted Bad Moms to be...it might have to do with the age of the actresses, the cool 80's teen movie music choices, Jake Ryan references, and Toni Collette. If you were a teen or tween when Pretty in Pink came out, and have kids now, I think you'll appreciate this as the fun film it is.
