THE #1 COMEDY (AT LEAST IN OUR BOOKS) OF THE YEAR, 'BAD MOMS' IS COMING TO BLU-RAY AND DVD!

party like a mother with this hysterical and relatable film!

Written and directed by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore (The Hangover, Four Christmases) and produced by one of our favorite producers Suzanne Todd, (Alice Through The Looking Glass) and Bill Block (Dirty Grandpa), this unforgettable and totally repeatable (as in -yes do watch a few times) comedy also features Jada Pinkett Smith (The Women), Christina Applegate (Anchorman 1 &2), Annie Mumolo (The Boss) and Jay Hernandez (Suicide Squad).

In this hilarious and heartfelt comedy from the writing duo behind The Hangover, Amy (Mila Kunis) has a seemingly perfect life – a great marriage, over-achieving kids, beautiful home and a career. However, she's over-worked, over-committed and exhausted to the point that she's about to snap. Fed up, she joins forces with two other over-stressed moms (Kristen Bell and Kathryn Hahn) on a quest to liberate themselves from conventional responsibilities – going on a wild, un-mom-like binge of long overdue freedom, fun and self-indulgence – putting them on a collision course with PTA Queen Bee Gwendolyn (Christina Applegate) and her clique of devoted perfect moms (Jada Pinkett Smith and Annie Mumolo). See the movie that critics are cheering as

…a funny, giddy, sentimental laugh-in…

-Manohla Dargis, The New York Times.
