New comedy film Bad Moms stars Mila Kunis, Christina Applegate and Kathryn Hahn as three stressed-out mothers who decide to let loose and go wild.

A group of mothers in Lincoln, Nebraska decided to do the same by taking a trip to their local cinema to see the film - an activity that ended in disaster when they were thrown out for being what the cinema chain's employees ironically deemed to be naughty mothers.

Lincoln Journal Star reports how earlier that night, one of the women's babysitters had cancelled and - instead of calling off the meet-up - decided to bring her nine-month-old along to her girls night out.

What they didn't know is that Marcus Theatre's rules state that no child under the age of six is permitted into a cinema screen showing an R-rated film. Acquiring tickets, the women took their seats when a security guard approached them and swiftly asked them to leave.

The baby's mother later wrote on her Facebook page: “I was told due to the policy I needed to leave or the cops would be called. They were concerned with the content my child would be viewing. I informed him, my child would be sleeping within minutes, not only would he not be watching the movie but he also would not be disturbing to other patrons."

She continued: “I stood up and with the 20-ish people in the theatre, (I) asked very kindly if anyone would like me to leave, I clearly would... everyone cheered and said ‘let her stay'."

Still, the group was escorted out and were refunded for their tickets. To make matters worse, the mothers were then shocked to encounter another group of women - one of whom had her baby in her arms - who had watched an earlier screening of Bad Moms.

Lindsey Weix, a spokeswoman for Marcus Theatres, remained stoic: “... One of the guests brought her infant son. We did not allow the two of them to stay for the movie given our policy on R-rated films," she explained. "Such movies are intended for mature audiences to enjoy in an adult setting. Marcus Theatres is committed to providing an unparalleled entertainment experience, and this policy was established with that in mind."

Still, the baby's mother has put a positive spin on the events.

"(The baby) was put to bed a good two hours past his normal bedtime and still no sound came out of him. He was with his mom. Happy. Whole. Content. Being a bad mom feels really, really, good!"
