We see very little of the women's vicissitudes, or the ways in which they support one another through their club.

This is the third feature within a year (on top of two TV shows) to come out of Perry's fast food, drive-thru productions. So it's not surprising that the Single Moms Club feels like it was slapped together by someone who is ready to take the next order.

The moral here is that no challenge is insurmountable if you form a club. And keep a wine opener handy.

Perry's films are generally good-hearted, life-affirming, and unabashedly hopeful even when dealing with challenging subjects.
