Acrimony

Absolute garbage. Complete waste of two hours. I feel personally victimized. You really feel sorry for Taraji B. Henson's character but at the same time you are sort of repulsed by her actions.

Wifey decided to put this on, and I followed suit to nap as I usually do during 'chick flicks'...I threw a few glances here and there, because the beginning was just like any other 'scorned woman movie'. Halfway through the movie I was seated up and hooked. The plot twists were too intense. By far the best drama I've watched in a while!! Pure genius!

'ACRIMONY': Two and a Half Stars (Out of Five)

A thriller written and directed by Tyler Perry, about an obsessive but faithful wife, who seeks vengeance on her unfaithful but loving husband. The movie stars Taraji P. Henson, Lyriq Bent and Crystle Stewart. Like almost all of Perry's films, the movie got almost unanimous negative reviews from critics, but it was a hit at the Box Office though. I haven't watched a Tyler Perry movie in some time, but this one is definitely better than the earlier ones of his I saw years ago (which I hated). Still, this is far from a good movie, but it is at least amusing and somewhat involving. Also Henson is fantastic in the lead, like always. It's kind of like a more cheesy and contrived 'FATAL ATTRACTION', from the mind of Tyler Perry.

Went on Date Night with Wifey to see something else and ended up seeing this. After reading the synopsis I was not feeling to see another 'Scorned woman due to abusive husband' movie. As the movie opens that's the feel you get, but as the movie goes on, your thoughts of how the movie will continue will actually divide; as my ideas and my wife's did. Tyler really did a Fantastic job with this movie. Makes one think, Is it HER fault, is it HIS fault, is it the FAMILIES fault. After the movie it will lead many to converse about it afterwards.

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.
