Why Watch This

Bad Day turns one ordinary promise into a wildly chaotic adventure. Cameron Diaz stars as Joy, a single mother determined to keep her word to her daughter even as the worst day of her life spirals completely out of control. Directed by Jake Szymanski and written by Laura Solon, the film combines action, comedy and an on-the-run premise with a strong mother-daughter motivation.

Best For

Best for viewers who enjoy action comedies, chaotic one-day adventures, family-centered stories and movies where a simple goal becomes increasingly difficult to accomplish. It should also appeal to fans of Cameron Diaz's comedic roles and ensemble comedies featuring actors such as Ed O'Neill, Mark Duplass, Ben Schwartz and Danielle Brooks.

The CinePearl Take

Bad Day takes a simple emotional hook—a mother determined to keep a promise—and places it inside an increasingly chaotic action-comedy setup. Cameron Diaz gives the story its central personality, while the large supporting cast adds plenty of opportunity for comic encounters along the way. Rather than relying on an elaborate premise, the film's appeal comes from watching one very determined mother try to get through an impossibly bad day.

If You Liked This, Try

If you enjoy Bad Day, try Back in Action for another Cameron Diaz action-comedy, Game Night for fast-paced ensemble comedy, Date Night for an ordinary couple caught in escalating trouble, and The Heat for more action mixed with comedy and chaotic situations.
