Critics Consensus

Cheap-looking, unfunny, and kind of sexist to boot, Moms' Night Out is a disappointment from start to finish.

Mom's Night Out is a movie only a mother could love.

Rated: 1.5/5

New York Magazine/Vulture

If the concept of a moms' night out is premised on the notion that mothers can never get away for fear their families will collapse in their absence, then this movie cruelly confirms that fear.

Globe and Mail

What ensues is frenetic and never as funny as it should be because directing brothers Andrew and Jon Erwin are not skilled enough at pacing the action and varying the volume.

Rated: 1/4

Being a mom is hard work. Having to sit through "Moms' Night Out" is even harder.

One of those films you can't really hate on because it does try very hard to be likable.

Rated: 3/5

Way underrated hilarious, hip, thrilling, touching, and family-friendly; and not just for a Christian based movie! Most critics' complaints are how unrealistic the plot situation are (?!) but hellooo it's a movie and that's kinda the points as even most of the classics have unrealistic things happen, haha. My only complaint as with most faith centered productions is every character seems annoyingly well-off, therefore not relatable to the average viewer; but great movie and not just for a Christian movie!

I've watched the movie at least 3 times and laugh and cry every time. Moms' Night Out proves they can still make good movies if they want to.

Never has a film so perfectly captured the evangelical family, without mocking them. While it may have a niche audience, this film knows exactly who that audience is. It's hilarious, heartfelt, wholesome, and a delight to watch over and over.
