Why Did I Get Married?

The film touches on some heavy points, but never really digs very deep. It's light weight, but that's fine.

The acting on the whole is good.......... Janet Jackson is a tad weak..... she was not that convincing.

I did like Jill Scott though.

I did like when the guys were just chatting, it felt really real and made me smile.

It's not ground breaking, it won't change your life, but it's fun in parts and some parts made me laugh out loud.

I think this a solid 5/10.

Why this film is rated at 3.2 is beyond me. I truly have to believe that it is racism. Tyler Perry is not my favorite but he is not untalented either. Instead of showing African Americans as either crack heads or criminals he is trying to show that African American people hold important jobs, are educated and struggle with issues just like white people do. This movie was well written and entertaining, no doubt about it. It was funny and insightful, showing the ups and downs of marriage and also showing unconditional Love that has to come with a successful marriage.I think Tyler Perry is a wonderful example for African Americans,Strong and spiritual and not afraid to show his Faith in God in his movies and that is to be applauded. Why is it that you can't show movies of Faith now days but can show sex, violence and cursing in Movies with no problem at all? What is this society coming to? I would really like to know.

Before seeing this film or any other Tyler Perry production I, like many of you, had my doubts. But there is something quite engaging when watching this film. The thing I ask you to remember when watching this film is seeing what was produced with the resources at hand. Of course there are flaws and the emotions seem slightly pushed at times, but it was a good story full of love, understanding, fun, and laughter. Tasha Smith did an excellent in her role as did Tyler, Sharon Leal, and Jill Scott. You fall in love with these guys, all of them, and whats going on in there lives very quickly. I will admit that the cast of characters would be better suited for a television sitcom. But, with the amount of main characters in this film, i still say a job well done. I am most eager to see how their stories develop in the next movie and i also think that it would also be a wonderful idea to consider a television show going back to when they all first met and started dating and for it to be on a network like HBO or showtime, but that might be dreaming too high. Anyway, this was a successful film am I am excited to see the next film and some of the films Perry has put out that I've missed. Just check it out with an open mind.

I really like all the conversations throughout. Despite the drama it's not bad. Some of it is hilarious too, hit or miss type, you either hate it or fairly enjoy it. I must say a lot of the drama escalates which is unfortunate so I understand why IMDb has it at 5.8. A lot of beautiful scenery and great dialogue that's for sure!

First of all I must say that I don't understand the low ranking, it is truly an underestimation of this film. I must admit that while I am a Tyler Perry fan I have been underwhelmed by his previous box office offerings. This film for me was a welcomed departure from his other films, it just seemed more professional, well directed, and the casting was phenomenal. Evan though it was rather preachy it seemed much less "after-school-specialish" than his initial movies. Jill Scott was amazing, Tasha Smith was Hilarious, and Janet Jackson wasn't as boring as she usually is. I hope this film is a precursor of more to come from Tyler Perry.
