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.

Mother's Day is nearly here — and the window to get a gift shipped on time is closing. The good news is, as of this writing, a majority of the gifts we recommend here should arrive by Sunday, if you happen to be an Amazon Prime member.
