Jexi is a comedy about what can happen when you love your phone more than anything else in your life.
A Bad Moms Christmas is mediocre after the original film, with stale jokes that lift the film away from reality and biting satire.
Bad Moms threatens to turn into a women-centric Seth Rogen movie, and it could easily have fallen off that particular cliff. Fortunately the movie and the audience are spared that fate, largely because the moms aren’t really that bad, and that’s the point of the movie. These women are overstressed, overworked and under-appreciated, but they’re trying.
Now that women can be as inappropriate as men, we get a comedy about bad moms. Or about raunchy moms? Or expectation-defying good moms?
