The Other Woman

Actors:  Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann, Kate Upton, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Nicki Minaj, Don Johnson.
Rating:  8 out of 10, I was the only attendee with a Y-chromosome and it seemed like a movie straight off the Lifetime (the Evil Man) Channel.  The evil man here was Jaime Lannister himself who’s married to Leslie Mann but sneaking off for affairs with Cameron Diaz and Kate Upton.  The ladies discover each other and plot their revenge. There were some really funny moments, all of them involving Mann and Diaz.  I think Mann may be the funniest actress in movies right now and Diaz has always had great comedic timing.  Upton absolutely destroys a white bikini (I think I was the only one in the audience who truly appreciated that) by jogging down the beach but her talents definitely do not lie in acting.  Nicky Minaj was also in this for some unexplained reason and was predictably terrible.  The evil man gets his comeuppance, the ladies triumph and although you could see that coming throughout the movie this was still a lot of fun to watch, mainly for Mann and Diaz (and the white bikini).
MVP:  Mann as the devoted yet cheated upon spouse 
See What I Mean?
