O.K. one

This is a good film for Saturday evening when you don't have anything better to do or you don't know what to do with yourself.

I can not say that it was funny - to me it was not, but it was entertaining and that is what - at the end of the day - I ask of the film. I guess those married with kids may appreciate it more.

The fun fact is seeing Maroon 5 leader in it. The other 4 moms were OK in their roles, with the biggest mom being the funniest. The dads were kinda ... too non substentinal.

The scene with kids on the boat was kinda what the hell is going on here? And...when did she lose the phone? I guess they did not know how to make a film of 80 minutes so they added some scenes which can be totally different film.

All in all, it was O.K. My rating is 5,6 (6).

The music was good.
