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.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
