Amy Mitchell (Mila Kunis) steckt mittendrin im Alltagswahnsinn. Die attraktive 32-Jährige strampelt sich ganz schön ab, um Kids und Karriere unter einen Hut zu bringen. Als sie herausfindet, dass sie von ihrem Mann Mike (David Walton) auch noch betrogen wird, ist Schluss mit Nettigkeit und Perfektion. Ab sofort pfeift Amy auf alle Regeln, setzt den untreuen Gatten kurzerhand vor die Tür und lässt es mit ihren neuen Freundinnen, der braven Kiki (Kristen Bell) und der frivolen Carla (Kathryn Hahn), so richtig krachen: Supermom war gestern – jetzt regieren die Bad Moms! So viel unverschämte Freizügigkeit ruft umgehend Gwendolyn James (Christina Applegate) auf den Plan. Die spießige Übermutter der Schule hält nämlich gar nichts von Spaßkultur und setzt ein böses Intrigenspiel in Gang, was Amy nur noch mehr in Fahrt bringt: Ring frei für den „Battle of the Moms" ... (Tobis)

Bad Moms is a comedy that, despite being dominated by a mostly female cast, has balls and isn't afraid to sell it, while maintaining a tolerable level of humour and not slipping into the awkward and disgusting ends of the genre, as is the case with many comedies from current production. I really had a lot of fun and laughed as much as I have in a long time during the film, whether it was during the discussions and banter between the various "bad moms" or purely during the gestures and physical acting of the characters. The cast was well chosen, as each actress in the central trio had her own distinctive comic take on the character she was playing, which worked to a tee. Plus I liked the credit scene with the real mothers of each actress. All in all, a pleasant surprise and a breather all in one with a likeable cast, a properly peppy script and just enough funny moments delivered frequently and in the right doses.

Well, that was quite something. 100 minutes of sheer desperation. Women with kids and a husband who doesn't help with anything have it tough. Wow, I just summed up the film in one sentence. I'm not one of those who think parental leave is a vacation, but it’s annoying when women complain about having children. I assume they were actively involved in the process of conception, perhaps with the exception of Mary of Nazareth. The humor in the film isn’t much to talk about, the romantic scenes made me cringe, and the ending was so touching it made me want to puke. One star for the great character of Kiki played by Kristen Bell who was the only one I enjoyed.
