QUICK TAKE:
Comedy: Three women seek revenge on the man who is cheating on all of them.
PLOT:
Carly (CAMERON DIAZ) is a hard-charging Manhattan attorney who finally believes she is leaving the dating scene when she meets the seemingly perfect guy. His name is Mark King (NIKOLAJ COSTER-WALDAU), a successful businessman and entrepreneur who spends his weeks in the city and his weekends at his home in suburban Connecticut. Remarkably, this does not sound warning bells with either Carly or her sassy, savvy secretary, Lydia (NICKI MINAJ).

Carly gets the shock of her life when she goes to Mark's house in the suburbs to surprise him and discovers he has a wife. Her name is Kate (LESLIE MANN), and she's the kind of woman Carly despises -- meek, dependent, house-bound, and unemployed. Kate tracks Carly back to the city, and the two end up becoming friends as each one senses they can draw strength from the other due to their differences. The two then really bond when they discover that Mark has been cheating on both of them with the young, gorgeous Amber (KATE UPTON).

Before long, Carly and Kate have recruited Amber, and the three together hatch an elaborate revenge plot against Mark after they learn he has captained some shady business deals offshore. Lending moral support along the way is Kate's hunky contractor brother, Phil (TAYLOR KINNEY), and Carly's five-times-divorced dad, Frank (DON JOHNSON).

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
