Title: Bad Community Theater
Review: After enjoying the Oprah episode devoted to this movie and Mr. Tyler Perry, I couldn't wait to see this DVD. Unfortunately, I like Mr. Perry much more than I liked this mess of a movie. I love to laugh! Didn't laugh much in the first 40 minutes or so, which is the amount of time we waited until we just turned the thing off. You don't "buy" the premise from the git-go -- this beautiful rich woman being physically dragged out of her house by her rich mean husband, instead of merely being divorced by him, is a ridiculous scene that set me up to disbelieve and be confused by the entire rest of this mess. I love Mr. Perry's creativity and personal rags-to-riches story, but this unfunny and over-the-top movie made me uncomfortable, like I was in the front row seat at a bad community theater production.
Is the review positive or negative?
