Madea's Family Reunion

its funny how the ratings for all the madeas movies are sooo low but the movies are sooo funny.. i will tell you. madea is not for everyone.. its either u love madea or u hate madea.. if you enjoy his movies, you will enjoy all of them. honestly, i am Asian and i believe a lot of the people who gave all the madea movies one star are probably all or majority of them are white. excuse me not just white but racist white folks that probably got offended. if you look at the reviews, a lot of them have 8, 9 or 10 stars but its the 1'z that bring the rating below what it should be. i think the majority of the madeas movies would range from at least 6 to 8 stars if it weren't for those that rated it a 1 because they were offended.

No one could call this great art, but Tyler Perry's play is wacky, lively, and fun. There are musical numbers mixed in and they pop up unexpectedly, with the actors doing some very fine singing. Perry himself is in drag in the lead role as Madea, an unpredictable, acerbic, big black woman who goes around (sometimes armed with a pistol) zinging and goosing (metaphorically that is) the other characters, who are mostly pretty standard African American types. We have the churchy folks, the virile young bucks, a wild young lady, a conservative young lady, and so on. Apparently there has been a whole series of these Madea flicks and they are very popular with African American audiences, but I bet they are mostly more of the same. To add to the confusion, there are 2 versions of this out there - I think one is a filmed version of the original stage play (which is what I saw) and the other is made for the movies.

If we had more original plays like this, written from the heart, spreading the Gospel we wouldn't have such an immoral world that's full of destruction. We would have people who receive the love of God and understand what life is all about. There would be less gangs and more healthy relationships.

Not only were the actors in this play brilliant, the singers blew me away and the music was exciting and moving

Thank you Mr. Perry for inviting God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost to participate in your play and share love, hope and understanding with the world. God Bless you

I thought that this play was very meaningful. I recommend that everyone see this play, whether they are church goers or not. Madea is absolutely hilarious! You have to have a sense of humor when it comes to this movie. Tyler Perry did a great job with the script and I personally think he picked out the best actors and actresses for this play. This play touched me spiritually. This play has many different stories going on at the same time. At times it can be very fast-paced and slow at other times. The stage was very realistic, especially for a play. Adults can relate to many of the things going on in this play. I don't recommend this movie for kids simply because they mainly talk about adult situations.
