Warning: Spoilers
Amy (Mila Kunis) is the lead "bad mom." She can no longer be a "super mom" in the Chicago suburbs. She befriends Kiki (Kristen Bell) and Carla (Kathryn Hahn) who are also tired of the whole super mom concept. With Wanda Sykes as a marriage counselor, she is a single mom. Amy butts heads with super mom Gwendolyn (no longer a hot teen Christina Applegate) vindictive president of the P.T.A. Amy is "good at being late." This is another over-the-top over-sexed potty mouthed woman comedy. "Bridesmaids" establish a successful formula and opened the flood gates for future endeavors, i.e. "Sister" and anything with Melissa McCarthy. I am not saying this is bad, but sometimes less is more and originality still counts for something.

This was a funny comedy, and perhaps would have been funnier if I didn't watch so many films in this genre.
