Naturally, “Mother’s Day” would be the perfect film to watch on the day focused on celebrating mothers. The film follows three mothers — Sandra (Jennifer Aniston), Miranda (Julia Roberts) and Jesse (Kate Hudson) — as well as a clueless widower dad, Bradley (Jason Sudeikis) as they handle the various aspects of motherhood.
