The three lead actresses also produced the film, presumably because there are not enough good roles for women over 35. They need to look a little harder.

What are critics saying?
Nominal laughs plus three reliable actresses equals the very mediocre Otherhood.

This misadventure of a project is a blip on the actresses’ résumés.
While the filmmakers have crafted compelling characters and conundrums, they unfortunately fail to give them better connective tissue and a satisfying third act.

Otherhood does have a few genuine and genuinely funny moments — thanks largely to its stars — but they’re overshadowed by the bad behavior of both the mothers and their sons.
Would I go out to see Otherhood? No. Nor should you. And we don’t have to. It’s not all that, but it’s perfectly “Netflixable.”
