This movie is very very good. Good is an instatement. The movie is GREAT. I applaud Tyler Perry for directing a movie and filming a movie from this perspective. Too many stigma on how a woman is suppose to handle her pain when she was used and broken by her husband. No one could had played Melinda better than Tarji P. Henson. She did an amazing job. Thank you Tyler Perry for writing and directing a movie about a heartbroken woman from all angles. I LOVED this movie. I'm purchasing the movie as I'm typing this review.
