Slant MagazineDerek SmithNov 1, 2017
The pressures of Christmas prove too great to fight off and the need for feel-good holiday cheer inevitably veers the film toward half-hearted, sentimental drama that seems purely obligatory to its seasonal milieu. Read full review

What's offensive about A Bad Moms Christmas (and “Bad Moms”) is just how shoddily made it is. Read full review
