User Reviews

Not Stereotypical Tyler

When you watch a Tyler Perry movie, there is a certain formula. This had some of the same elements but not the same formula. It was from one person's point of view but as viewer it allowed you to see both sides of the story. The green screen was obvious, and it was slightly annoying. The ending should've been different.
