Very Entertaining, 4 October 2009
8/10
Author: gsmith220 from Virginia, United States

I really enjoyed this movie. I went to be entertained and don't mind seeing the same plot line again and again. There were no car crashes, no blood and guts, just a clear story line that I could follow. The characters grew during the course of the movie. There was a clear beginning, middle and ending. Even though I could figure out the end, I was curious how Tyler Perry was to portray it. It was fun and pleasant. Had me dancing in my seat.

The cast was great, the music was great, the emotions ranged from laughter to tears. Tyler Perry is able to combine great entertainers in a single movie.

I have seen move of Tyler Perry's movies and look forward to more.

Keep them coming Tyler Perry. I support you.
