A Bad Moms Christmas
A Bad Moms Christmas is a 2017 American Christmas comedy film written and directed by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore. It is a sequel to the 2016 film Bad Moms. The plot follows the three moms from the first film (Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, and Kathryn Hahn) dealing with their own mothers (Christine Baranski, Cheryl Hines, and Susan Sarandon) visiting during the Christmas holiday. The film was released in the United States on November 1, 2017, and grossed over $130 million. It received mixed-to-negative reviews, with criticism aimed at the thin story and raunchiness. In April 2019, it was announced that a sequel was in development.
Oh, wow. - You need to talk to your mom. - I know. She needs some boundaries. - Or at least, a boundary. - I know. I just, uh... I don't wanna hurt her feelings. And, you know, ever since my dad died I'm, like, pretty much her only family. So I'm worried that if I push her away even a little that it's gonna break her heart. She saw my boner, Kiki.

What are you doing? I am decorating your house properly because apparently, you are unwilling to do so yourself. Why does my house have to be properly decorated? Making Christmas special is how you show your family that you love them, Amy. You don't want your kids to think that they're worthless and unloved. - Do you? - Well, no, of course not. This is the time of year when moms kill themselves to create a magical world of joy for their children. It is not a time of year when moms sit around in their pajamas eating fudge. - I don't even like fudge. - Great. So stop being a shitty mom. - Oh. - Hey, kids. How do you like the Christmas cavalcade, huh? - Oh, my gosh. It's awesome. - Show mom how it works! Really, Amy, you are gonna love this. Okay. We are go for the cavalcade, over. Don't worry, I'll show you how this works. It's on an app.

Are those actual partridges? Of course. They don't have any survival skills. They'll be dead within an hour. - Okay. - Here, kids. Have some breakfast candy. - I'm sorry, what? - Oh, my God. Thank you, grandma. I love you. I love you. I love you, too, guys. Okay, let's reload the birds. And I hate that they're gray. Let's paint them all white. And can't they look a little happier when they fly away? I mean, it is Christmas.

Your mom decorated your house? Oh, no, no, no, no. That is not okay. Who cares, let her decorate your house. She wanna do mine next? It's-it's not about the house. It's-it's about the fact that I'm a 34-year-old woman and my mother is still telling me how to live my life. Well, then you need to fight her. Like... physically? That is correct, Amy. I can teach you some basic karate moves. But we all know that she's gonna keep treating you like this until you beat the shit out of her. I don't want you to meet my mom. She's a 62-year-old woman, so... Fine, but you need to have at least a serious conversation with her. - That sounds more legal. - I know. I know. And where's your dad in all this? Oh, my dad, he's so sweet. But he's completely under her control. I mean, there's no way he's gonna choose my side over hers, no. - Sweetie, that's hard. - Oh... Moms are so weird. How's Christmas with your mom? Oh, you know. It's... It's okay-it's okay, I guess. Yeah. I mean, my mom got her hair cut and colored exactly like mine, but... I think that's pretty normal, right? Your... Did your moms... Do your moms have your... hairstyle? You know, every time I think I'm the fucked-up one in this group Kiki, you open your mouth, and then I'm like "No, I'm doing great."

Anyway, uh, my mom and I were gonna take the kids over to Sky Zone later. - Do you guys wanna come? - Legally... I can't get within 50 yards of a Sky Zone but... Okay, you know what? Fuck it. I'm totally in. - Amy? - Oh, I can't-I can't go. I wish I could, but my mother's making us go see "The Nutcracker." So... - I love "The Nutcracker." - Oh, no, no, no, no! Not like the Sugar Plum Fairy "Nutcracker." No, the original, the five-hour long version that's all in Russian, where a bunch of people die. It's-it's awful. - Why don't you just not go? - Oh, God, no. No, she would never let me live it down. It's much easier to do it this way. Guys, are we not taking Christmas back this year? - Yeah. - Hmm. I'm asking you that seriously 'cause I got so wasted at the mall, I can't remember if I actually said that or if that's just something that I'm dreaming about right now.

- What up, lady? - Mom! What are you doing here? What does it look like I'm doing? I'm waiting for my daughter to give me a free manicure. - Free manicure, huh? - Yeah. Alright. Well, at least I'm not waxing your pussy. - Maybe next time. - Okay. So, what's up? You seein' anybody? Well, you know, there was a couple of things going with some dads from school. But it gets complicated. Plus, like, there is not a better time of the year to be single than Christmas. I mean, it's like, I go to the mall and I see these, you know, these couples walking around. And they're, they're, like, holding hands and... You know, wearing scarves and feeding each other sandwiches and lookin' at jewelry, you know... ♪ Every kiss begins with Kay ♪♪ - Alright, stop. Stop. - What? - You sound super lonely. - No! Babe, listen, the rock and roll lifestyle isn't for everybody. I'm still super rock and roll. I woke up in a park this morning. Carla. I found kale chips in your kitchen. - Okay, those are for my kid. - Right. They're healthy as fuck.

So, how you doin'? I've been better actually, to tell you the truth. I... There is something that I'm very excited about which I just need a little money for... Here we go. - What? - You always do this. What? You show back up in my life. You ask me for money, I give it to you. You gamble it all away and you leave me and then you just come runnin' back asking for more. I give it to you again 'cause I'm an idiot. This is a legitimate business opportunity. How much do you need? Not much. Like five grand. Really. Fiv... Between five and ten grand, maybe 15, tops.
