In just a few days we will all be celebrating the Mother’s in our lives and one way I was able to have some time with my mom was by taking a few hours to go on a Mom and Daughter date. We had the pleasure of viewing the new movie – Mother’s Day.
Movie Synopsis:
Sandy (Jennifer Aniston) is a stressed-out, single mom who learns that her ex-husband is marrying a younger woman. Her friend Jesse (Kate Hudson) is a fitness freak who doesn’t tell her parents that she has a family. Bradley is a widower (Jason Sudeikis) who’s trying to raise two daughters on his own, while Miranda (Julia Roberts) is too busy with her career to worry about having children. When their respective problems start coming to a head, the Mother’s Day holiday takes on a special meaning.
Our Review:
Both my mom and I thought this was a really good movie. The amount of well-known actors was pretty impressive. It showed so many different views of moms and why moms need to be celebrated every day. We both laughed a lot and cried some too. I loved that this was a great wholesome movie that allowed us to both have a nice time at the theater with each other.
This is a movie that I would love to watch again at home too just like Valentine’s Day. Sure this movie might not get a ton of awards but it really is a great movie for an afternoon out with mom. There was only one part about the Julia Robert’s character and relationship that I was pretty bothered about – I do not want to spoil the movie just yet but will be writing a post on this issue.
My mom and I both agree that this is a great movie to enjoy this week with other moms in your life. Time time for some lunch, laughs, cries and popcorn. We all deserve that.
Happy Mom’s Day!!

I so want to see this movie. Hoping to get to go over the weekend.
What a great cast! I'd love to go see a movie with my mom. She lives a bit far so we'll be doing a brunch here. I can't wait!
I'd love to see this movie and invite my mom to go with me.
My mom is still trying to figure out what she wants to do for Mother's Day. Those flowers are truly beautiful.
This is going to be a good movie and a big hit. I love seeing anything with Julia Roberts in it.
Yep, def. time to grab the popcorn. I just love all the big names!
It sounds like a great movie, hoping to watch it when I come back from Disney!
I should take my mom to this movie. She hasn't been to one in ages!
Ohhh i want to know what bothered you about Julia Roberts character girl!
i totally want to go see this movie with my momma – it looks so good & I love ProFlowers!
We saw this movie and it's totally hilarious. Julia Roberts had a really short role in this movie, it's more of a Jennifer Aniston movie actually 😉
This looks like a fun movie! I wonder if I can get my mom to go with me too!
I need to take some me time for Mother's Day and go see this movie!
I was just talking about this with my daughter. We may have to go see it together.
