Blockers (2018)

Three parents brought together by their daughters' friendship unite in an attempt to stop their plans to lose their virginity on prom night.

A more or less plausible comedy film that puts some charismatic parents in comical situations while pursuing their more or less excusable goal of controlling the lives of their children. It's not particularly special, as it often uses tired clichés and off-colour jokes, but the characters are made so likeable by the actors that give them life, that many of these things are forgiven and the film can be enjoyed with the necessary lightness.

Director:  Kay Cannon   
With: Leslie Mann, John Cena, Ike Barinholtz, Kathryn Newton

Rating: 8/10
