"A BAD MOMS CHRISTMAS".............F*** THE HALLS........

A Bad Moms Christmas (2017)    In this crude, graceless age, you can now divide up movie-goers into two groups......

              Group # 1 -  everyone who thinks the sight of a too-cute-for-words 4 year old girl looking into the camera and cracking "Oh my fucking God!" is hilarious........

               Group # 2 - Everyone else.

              This gasping, exhausted sequel to "Bad Moms" owes its existence solely to the surprise jumbo box office take of......"Bad Moms".

               And nothing makes sequel-izing easier than putting the film in that peculiar 'Christmas-as-Hell-On-Earth' comedy genre........with family dysfunction and misery mixed in with snow, caroling and debauched Santas.........

                Setting the movie during the holiday season also allows numerous chances to pad the running time (and the skimpy screenplay) with slapstick musical montages.......thereby inflating a 70 minute story into an acceptable 105 minute movie.....

                 This one has the original Bad Moms (Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn) dealing with their own Bad Moms....(Christine Baranski, Cheryl Hines, Susan Sarandon)

                 The horror.......the horror........

                  The film makes Hahn do most of the comedic heavy lifting, since she's the wild 'n crazy borderline outlaw character......with Sarandon more than matching her.  Hines' clingy helicopter mom is beyond creepy and Baranski barrels along, doing her usual Huffy Diva bit.

                  The movie reduces Kunis to wandering dazed throughout the proceedings, sometimes muttering...."What.....The......Fuck"......

                   Our reaction exactly.

                   Zero stars (0). And that's more than enough words wasted on this.  Other than to say there's a special place in hell for filmmakers who resort to using toddlers to drop F-bombs.
