There’s no denying that this movie set out to do what it intended. It’s fun galavanting around with these four long-time friends in exotic Italy. There are numerous laugh-out-loud moments in the movie and every actress gets her fair shot at the spotlight.
Kudos to the writers: Bill HoldermanErin Simms. I’m moderately impressed with the way the writers chose to end the movie. It could have gone many different ways, and most of them would have been sappy. But they threaded the needle and found a satisfying, yet not wholly expected, ending.

I hope this movie makes enough, and all the parties are interested in making this into a trilogy: Book Club: The Last Chapter.
Grade: B
About The Peetimes: I have 3 good Peetimes to choose from. I don’t think either is any better than another, so let your bladder decide. 🙂
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Book Club: The Next Chapter.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
