Tully: Domestic Dis

You've seen Bad Moms and Bad Moms 2 and Bad Moms, the Christmas Movie.
Now you can see Sad Mom. Or is it Mad Mom, as in she's lost it?

Tully is not a movie for anyone contemplating motherhood. In fact, it might be the best contraceptive since, well, ever.

Still, it's an engrossing movie, beautifully acted by Charlize Theron in a fatsuit.

We meet her on the verge of giving birth to her third child. We experience the birth and chaos that ensues. There's been some push back about this movie from the PC police, something having to do with depiction of mental health problems.

The Movie Slut chooses not to generalize. Instead she sees this as a story about one woman working through a tough time in her life in a rather unique way. As they say, "It's all good."
