An exceptionally well acted and thought of dramatic story with tangible emotive performances and a very well thought out script. Although there were a few "Hollywood touches" that bypassed alot of the judicial practices... read more

August 26, 2010Seriously this was a good movie. I liked the dating part most. It was funny. And also loved the part where a father can do anything for his children. The little one was cute. Liked her attitude. The story is very touchy. It will bring you to tears and make you angry at the same t... read more

December 6, 2011An inspiring well thought out film. To bad that's all it has going for it. Tyler Perry should stick to comedies, as if that still does him good. There was no real plot build-up to this one. Everything was also fasted pasted, which is not good for a movie that has a sub genre of d... read more

February 18, 2007An exceptionally good movie about a father that put the care and concerns of his daughters first. A deeply moving and gripping tale that is a must see. Tyler Perry has struck gold again. The end left me wanting for more. Please see it.

September 4, 2007This was a good story, a little drug out in places and the mother and her boyfriend were bad in a cartoonish sort of way. But all in all it was a good story about a dad wanting to take care of his kids and how communities can change injustices if they are willing to stand up toge... read more

August 22, 2007This movie was very entertaining. A way of a father protecting what he loves the most, with the help of a beautiful lawyer. Very good movie.

February 20, 2007Union makes Perry's pap palatable. The least choppy of his urban melodramas.

July 25, 2008Here is a movie that leaves you a bit teary-eyed, directed by Tyler Perry. Gabrielle Union is great! Good story plot.

March 13, 2010Oh my goodness, this movie had my emotions going, it had everything and touched my heart. Tyler Perry is the KING of MOVIES for me. I have not felt a movie this good since "Ghost". I love movies that touch me, I felt so much compassion watching this movie. Everyone in this mo... read more

It makes you happy to receive the Word of Perry. Full Review

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Subtlety has never been Perry's strength, but his previous films balanced the sermonizing with good humor and sincerity. Perhaps next time, he'll ease up on the lectures, and bring back the love. Full Review

Jason Anderson, Globe and Mail
The lead actors make Perry's didacticism easier to take. Full Review

Matt Zoller Seitz, New York Times
The hamfistedness of Daddy's Little Girls ultimately shatters its charms.

Ruthe Stein, San Francisco Chronicle
Given his built-in appeal, Perry has the opportunity to broaden the subject matter of so-called black movies. He takes a stab at it in Girls, but he could do so much better. Full Review

Gene Seymour, Newsday
This particular Tyler Perry movie offers some glimpses of the graceful comic talent its one-man entertainment empire can be if he turns down the volume more often. Full Review

Randy Cordova, Arizona Republic
In terms of direction, this is the sharpest film Perry has made. It moves at a deft pace, and the comedic sequences continually score. He also knows how to create a mood. Full Review

Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune
In Daddy's Little Girls, Tyler Perry merits an A for the messages he wants to deliver but only a C-plus for the way he delivers them.
