Book Club: The Next Chapter (out May 11) is an improvement on the 2018 original. No topic is off limits as the four leading ladies travel to Italy for a bachelorette party/trip and talk about life, love, sex, wine, food and fate. Instead of trying to create unnecessary villains and faux drama, it’s a film that understands what its audience wants and so the tone is kept light throughout. Grade: A-.
