Throwback Thursday: Bad Moms Review

This is kind of a different Throwback Thursday... it isn't much of a Throwback either... this movie came out last summer- but I never saw it until recently. Still haven't finished Season 3 of Friends... and I've seen the first Despicable Me again recently and the Amazing Spider Man movies... but I kind of want to do those reviews a little differently... so Bad Moms!

I didn't just watch this movie either... so I've had a while to kind of think about it. I thought it was a really funny movie. I'm excited for A Bad Mom's Christmas because this is a movie I could watch again and again... it's just really good.

Let's talk about the leads of the movie: Kristin Bell, Mila Kunis and Katheryn Hahn... they all just worked amazingly together. They're all very funny women... I think Katheryn Hahn is better known for being in comedies... she isn't exactly a household name- but she's been in pretty much every movie! And I think they've all been in movies together... Kristin Bell and Mila Kunis were in Forgetting Sarah Marshall together and they had great chemistry. Katheryn Hahn did as well... they just really worked well together and it genuinely seemed like they had a really fun time with this movie!

The movie also went over kind of a lot for a movie... I could almost see this being a tv show. Some Spoilers Here: Mila Kunis finds out her husband is cheating on her, she stops caring about her job, she runs for PTA President or whatever, she befriends some of the other moms that also feel like just being bad moms, she has her relationship with the hot dad... it's a lot for one movie and it keeps you interested in everything. There's definitely a lot of stuff going on.

Christina Applegate was also really funny in this. She reminded me a little bit of her character on Friends... but more uptight. It was just very funny. She's wayyy funnier than she gets credit for. Anything I've seen her in, she's always been super funny. I'm probably most excited about her character in the sequel because she's a lot different at the end of the movie than at the beginning... so that I feel like gives a hint of the sequel maybe... maybe not... idk. I think she'll join the other 3 bad moms and party and cause trouble. Super interested in this sequel!

It was an R rated comedy... so it was pretty raunchy comedy... but still one that you could watch with your mom or sister and enjoy... I watched it with my mom- and there weren't that many awkward moments... so it didn't feel totally uncomfortable.

I also really loved the end credit scene where all the actresses had their moms come in and they talked to them. I thought that was really sweet and very funny. Those were really their moms and it was just a really good way to end the movie. I hope that they have them in the sequel talking about their Christmas traditions or something. It was pretty cool!

That is everything I have to say about this movie... hope you guys like this review! I recommend checking it out!

Byeee!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
