Just another Tyler Perry movie. The plot is half comedy, and half drama, and although the movie is hilarious, the dramatic moments are unbearable. The cast is also bad, although I think Tyler Perry is a funny and good actor, the rest of the cast was bad and I did not enjoy them... read more

It was just aight for me...excels when actually focusing on comedy, fails when trying too hard to push Perry's agenda (which is a good one, just doesn't go over so well).
"God invented menopause because I am too old to be a mother" ~Madea
This is my favorite of Perry's movies and Madea's greatest role to date. The cast was great in this one and the ending was beautiful.
I think everybody that reviewed this must be white. Haha, it really seems like it, but it's funny because I am white. This movie was awesome in my opinion. I almost didn't watch it because the rating was so low, but I'm so glad I did. It was the most ridiculous movie I have ever ... read more
I think Tyler Perry's make on the older generation is excellent and funny also adds some wisdom in it.
Boy, see this is why Perry movies get a bad name. This is the first Perry movie that I felt was completely filled with the same caricatures that always seem to be portrayed in his movies. How is this a feel good movie when you get the obligatory woman being slapped up by her man... read more
Theres like 100 of these Tyler Perry movies and they are all testaments to how fucking stupid people are. If you watch these movies or anything by Tyler Perry then you have Down's Syndrome and should file for some Federal financial assistance while you qualify. If your name is ... read more
Perry's vaudevillian shamelessness and indifference to committee-approved taste are energizing and frequently jaw-dropping. Full Review
Tyler Perry's heart is in the right place, but he still has a tin ear. Full Review
Let's not sell Tyler Perry short. As the vinegar-witted Madea, he's a drag performer of testy charm, but in his overlit patchwork way he's also making the most primal women's pictures since Joan Crawf... Full Review
Family Reunion doesn't know if it wants to be a comedy or a drama and ends up as mostly a melodrama with scenes that would be embarrassing on a soap opera. Full Review
This movie's trailers promise a slapstick comedy about an obese black woman who takes no guff and enjoys beating people up. It isn't exactly, and that's a disappointment.
Goodwilled? Sure. Good filmmaking? Lord no. Full Review
Too bad the story is so predictable and the big wedding scene, in which women dressed as angels dangle from the church ceiling strumming harps, is cornier than an Orville Redenbacher factory.
Like horror flicks or family films, Tyler Perry's Madea movies -- based on his enormously successful plays -- are a genre unto themselves, which means one thing: Either you are going to see them or yo... Full Review
Brimming with cliches, Madea, like Diary, has an undeniable appeal, for those who can stick with it, in its earnest and unfashionable conviction.
