All the Queen's Men

I really tried with this show. The repeating if the same lines over and over, making the characters seem stupid is sooo hard to watch. Unfortunately this is the norm in Tyler Perry movies. Blue's character is not believable at all. The only characters and acting that regularly carry the show are the main dancers and their choreography on stage is good. I can't understand why the writer's of Tyler Perry's shows get the same feedback about the acting, the repeated lines ( like they are unaware of what normal conversations sound like) and bad acting hasn't encouraged them to improve their craft over the years... But all of these shows are the same. I just can't watch without fast forwarding to the dancers... The rest of this show is painful 😖😣

It was okay. I thought it would be better. Not terrible but bot great. Eva was better than expected but her lines at times are stiff but that's the writing. Says the same lines repeatedly. Guy who plays her nephew is fine as hell but acting can use some flow to it..felt like the same character from Sisters. The dancers were better actors. It just felt stiff. That being said I watched all episodes in one sitting and would tune in to season 2. Guy pleasure type show. The scenery is beautiful, sets amazing, wardrobe flawless, makeup gorgeous!.

I began watching this show and actually paid for a BET+ subscription just to see what all the hype was about! Sadly, I wasted my money and canceled my subscription because of this show! The acting is terrible, Eva or "Madam" plays a cold-hearted angry all the time, Black Woman, and she is an "untouchable serial-killer!" && How does her character know so much? Make her work in finding the answers to some stuff, like every man in the city she owns... but Why??? How??? Why would soooo many men be doing her bidding? She isn't paying them, after all... she's always on a hunt for somebody who "stole her money" 🙄🤣...Watching this show was cringey because ITS SO UNBELIEVABLE and UNREALISTIC! Lol 😂 on one scene, she sneaks into a hospital and pushes the hospital bed out the window killing a guy, and walks out like nothing happened. She threatens judges, law enforcement, like come on ?!!! This show would've had a slight opportunity if it was more in touch with Realistic Events!! Tyler Perry , I know you wanna give people opportunities, but they should be invested in taking some acting lessons to perfect their acting skills! Highly disappointed at this show smh!

This gets a 6 from me because the show has a good start and has room to grow. I appreciate the writing and Eva is believable and I like her. In spite of the bad, you root for Madam. She's ruthless and protective in the same vein. You also see her very real vulnerable spots, and that duality is refreshing. The eye candy is outstanding and the minor twist are enough to keep you going. The surprises are enough to bring you back. The beauty on the screen is breath-taking and to be one these cast members is to be one of the beautiful people.

The show carries a Tyler Perry"ishness" in tone... which is not surprising considering he directed most episodes and serves as Executive Producer. The show is a good addition to BETplus and another reason to keep my subscription.

With all of that good and interesting, the show has room to grow. The dialogue is a bit stiff, sometimes contrived as well as some of the valiant scenes, especially when Madam saves the day... And I'm awaiting the onion-reveal of the nephew's motivation. I hope the show moves away from some of the minor expected romances and hook-ups.

And a Sheri maintaining and kicking ass gets me every time!

I like the crazy, unrealistic, and sometimes stupid, storylines.

And I like Eva (Pigford) Marcille in general since Idol.

That's really it.

Also, Rashan Ali (Miss Tandy) is ok as a villain but the character is written badly. Her lines repeat one word responses like everybody else but one second she's tough, the next she runs like a coward. She should challenge Madam and do with subtlety. But she's obvious. Like most of the actors, including Marcille, the acting is wasted on the character.

But somehow the show is interesting by being stupidly dumb with sex appeal.

And I love to enjoy this enjoy this disaster by Tyler Perry.

So does it really matter?
