SNATCHED

SNATCHED:  Touted as a film for the Mother's Day weekend, this bit of froth stars Amy Schumer and Goldie Hawn as mother and daughter.  When she is dumped by her boyfriend on the eve of their planned vacation, Emily (Schumer) persuades her mother Linda (Hawn) to accompany her on a South American jaunt.  The two, being polar opposites, soon find themselves at odds and knee-deep in adventure.  Yes, kidnapping is involved (thus, the title.) In lesser roles, but memorable, we have the wonderful Wanda Sykes, along with Joan Cusack (with not a word spoken) and Christopher Meloni both filling their own funny shoes.  While the dialog is crude at times and may offend some, you will still laugh. There is also a bit of comic bloodshed.  I did think it tried a little too hard to pull at your heart strings toward the end.....but hey, it's meant for Mother's day.  So there had to be a happy ending.
