Mother's Day

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Arguably well-intended yet thoroughly misguided, Mother's Day is the cinematic equivalent of a last-minute gift that only underscores its embarrassing lack of effort.

Sandy Cohen Associated Press Even if stars Jennifer Aniston, Julia Roberts and Kate Hudson are mom's all-time favorites, don't subject her to this cloying, plotless dose of saccharine unless she's done you wrong. Dec 30, 2016 Full Review Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com Mother's Day isn't just bad, it's an unforgivable blot on the cinematic landscape. Rated: 0/4 Aug 11, 2016 Full Review Roxana Hadadi Chesapeake Family Magazine Want some racism and sexism with your holiday celebration? The repellent Mother's Day has a surprising, distasteful, and shameful amount of both. Rated: 0/5 Aug 2, 2016 Full Review David Bax Battleship Pretension They all shine as befits their star status but there's little here worth casting their light on. Jan 6, 2021 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com The film itself is destined to be one of the year's absolute worst efforts and easily the worst of Marshall's long career. Rated: 0/4.0 Sep 17, 2020 Full Review Avaryl Halley Movie Bitches This movie is watchable on a Sunday with your mom. May 1, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Una de las peores películas que he visto en mi vida. No puedo creer que es tan perfectamente mala, el cast obvio es bueno y es un desperdicio de dinero, tiempo y trabajo, está muy mal escrita, mal editada y no tiene nada de sentido. No lo digo ofensivamente, solo es una descripción honesta, me gustaría darle un 0 estrellas pero no sé puede. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/11/24 Full Review Addison H I want that 1hour and 58 minutes of my life back Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/07/24 Full Review Miss L Combining like 10 different storylines that are unrelated. Single dumbest movie I've had the displeasure of watching. Littered with cliche bs stereotypes that would only be humorous to someone with a mental deficit, as the scriptwriters clearly were. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/24 Full Review John A A surprising lack of effort on display here. Think I'll skip Mother's Day this year. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/15/23 Full Review Denise B Kept dipping in and out of film tbh until I finally gave up. One star given for the casting director who managed to hoodwink some great actors into signing up to this bore fest. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/30/23 Full Review donnie m a lot of GREAT actors but this movie SUCKED! i did like Jennifer Anniston, she's a good actress but underrated, i think AND-what's with that hairdo on the BEAUTIFUL Julia Roberts? and finally-seems they tried to put one of each category of people on the planet Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
