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.

Three suburban moms travel to New York City to visit their sons.
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
Nominal laughs plus three reliable actresses equals the very mediocre Otherhood.
The Hollywood Reporter by Caryn James
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.
Los Angeles Times by Kimber Myers
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.”
