Good news about Moms Night Out! CULVER CITY, Calif. — May 13, 2014 — MOMS’ NIGHT OUT, the Sarah Drew/Sean Astin/Patricia Heaton/Trace Adkins team-up, was this week’s second-biggest, per-screen, new release at the box office. For Mother’s Day 2014—for maybe first time ever—the hot gift was . . . a movie ticket. Starting the Friday before Mother’s Day, families filled theaters for MOMS’ NIGHT OUT, a wholesome PG standout in a field of the summer’s 15 R-rated comedies, and crowds rose higher on word of mouth. Exit polls echo the audience reactions: 82 percent of moviegoers (the average is 60 percent) say, yes, they’d definitely recommend MOMS’ NIGHT OUT. A million-plus people, meanwhile, are talking about it on Facebook. Among females aged 35-49, MOMS’ NIGHT OUT received an A- CinemaScore. “Hollywood is overdue to make movies on a double bottom line,” co-writer and director Jon Erwin said. “While MOMS’ NIGHT OUT entertains entire families, it’s proving that content can build up families and come out financially profitable.”
