How does a wife and mother of 2 balance her personal life with her high powered work life? I just don’t know how anyone does it!
Expectations going in:
Haven’t seen a single trailer for this movie. I just knew it was an SJP movie…and I see ALL her movies. I would say low expectations going in...which might have contributed to why I liked it.
My take:
Was it AMAZING/Fav movie of the year? No! Was it cute enough? Yes!
This movie came out of nowhere for me. It was a super cute movie with some really funny lines and moments. I found it to be very real. It was written by a mom...and you could tell. I mean this movie isn't winning any awards, but it was everything I want out of light-hearted comedy. I definitely think it is worth the price of a movie ticket.
Look out for:
Oh man…I LOVED this cast.
Olivia Munn is hilarious and my new favorite actress. Before this movie I really only knew her as the girl who may have been hooking up with Justin Timberlake.
Seth Meyers is also great in this movie a really obnoxious snarky work bully.
Christine Hendricks is finally dressed in non Mad Men clothes and is adorable!
You will like it if:
You are a woman…and even more if you are a mom
You are a die hard SJP fan
You want a light hearted movie that will make you laugh...2 hours of entertainment.
Would I go with my mom:
Yes – Called her immediately after the movie and told her to see it!
Good date movie?
Oooo – I do not think I would drag my boyfriend to this one. Definitely a girls night movie.
