Comedies and Romance those are the genres of movies I LOVE best. So, when I was invited by The Moms to an advanced screening of Keepin Up With The Joneses + a chat with Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot (the lead actresses from the movie) you bet you bottom dollar I jumped on it. The fact that it was hosted at The London in West Hollywood and I could bring a guest only added to my excitement.
Keepin Up With The Joneses Review + Chat with Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot
The Movie
First off let me get down to that question you are DYING to ask… YES!!! This film is as fantastically funny and witty as you have hoped for. YES, the cast is incredibly talented (and HOT!!!). And, YES you MUST go see it this weekend because it came out today!!!
What you may not know is besides being super funny this movie is also incredibly realistic. I think that is why you are laughing you a@* off watching it. I mean c’mon we’ve all been there envious of the new shiny married couple and the gorgeous girl’s pre-baby body. The “just split the fuck@*% cookie” you know it’s run through your mind before- don’t lie!
If you don’t know what I am talking about watch the trailer below:
Besides being incredibly funny and relatable Keepin Up With The Joneses also has some amazing action scenes plus some plot twists that will keep you in suspense. So, definitely make sure to head to the theaters tonight or this weekend and check it out!!
The Event
The Moms hosted a Mamarazzi® event with the film’s cast including, Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot at the The London West Hollywood at Beverly Hills. Fellow mom bloggers, journalists and I were treated to delicious cocktails, treats and popcorn while we waited to hear from Keepin Up With The Joneses stars- Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot. We also got to see the film in it’s entirety!!! Here’s a peek into what I learned…
First off… Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot are two of the kindest most incredibly humble movie stars I have ever met. They are also fellow mothers & kick as* women who perform their own stunts!
I loved hearing them chat about their favorite scenes in the movie (Isla loved the car chase scene), what it was like to be on set with their kids and how Isla had just given birth 6 weeks before filming started so she was juggling shooting the movie with breastfeeding a 6 week old cluster feeder 😉 Hence her, “Frankin-boobs” as she stated in the film. Only us moms would understand that description- ha!
Isla and Gal also discussed their mutual admiration for each other, their kids halloween costumes and the elusive work/ life balance. By the way if any of you know the secret to that please share because all of us women in the room are still trying to achieve it 😉
Check out what Gal and Isla had to say about each other below:

Omg! My husband and I are just discussing what to watch on the movie theatre this weekend when I came across your blog. WE are sold. We are watching Thanks to you ?
This looks like it will be so much fun! My husband and I are planning a night out before our second little one arrives in just a few weeks, and this definitely needs to be on the agenda. 🙂 🙂
Sounds like a win to me! I can’t wait to watch!
