Beauty in Black

*sigh* I think what bothers me about some of TP's projects is the lack of creativity. He tends to put a lot of money into the scenery, the elaborate sound-stage homes and all of the beautiful extras. He makes it all look so beautiful and "rich". But underneath the sparkle, it's the same old formula...stereotypical "Beeotches" and "hoes", amateur acting, unnecessary drama, violence & hate. I thought this was more about the building of a successful family business. But EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER YELLS & CURSES at each other the ENTIRE time. The premise HAD potential. I just had different expectations.

I am actually surprised how much this series kept me interested.

I watched it in one night, and must say Tyler Perry did a decent job with this, it was like one of those telenovelas.

I was very iritated by the Mallory character and Kimmie's aswell. Kimmie was portrayed like a character who does not have a tounge to speak what is on her mind, without any personality. That was so sad. If I had a mom like she had, I would literally never looked back except my sibling. She was too pathetic, too shy, she barely confronted anybody.

There were also parts that developed so slow and there was too much focus on parts that didn't matter at all unlike parts like the Rain character. Damn, that girl was forgotten so fast. No question.

All in all, it is watchable and keeps you interesting so give it a try. A decent 6 because the acting was mediocre.

This show is a disgrace and a misogynistic display from Tyler Perry. It's eerie and chillin and the undertones in the current media climate is too coincidental. Money and power misused in such a condescending manner towards humanity.

A theatrical disgrace to cinema needs to be shown in a dark hole.

The acting is poor the storyline is poor and directing ability poor too.

It diminishes the talents of real hard-working black people in industries where they thrive without the low life dirty drama.

Another season cannot be created it's absolutely no value to learning anything in the simplest way.

Just cancel.

Beauty in Black If you're looking for drama that spills the tea in the messiest way possible, Beauty in Black delivers! This movie is packed with over-the-top, soap-opera-level drama that's both hilarious and absurd. It's the perfect watch for a lazy, boring day when you just want something fun and brainless to pass the time.

Don't expect anything highbrow-this is pure trash, and it knows it. The storyline is ridiculous, the characters make questionable choices at every turn, and that's exactly what makes it so entertaining. It's a guilty pleasure, for sure, and I loved every ridiculous minute of it!

I hesitated watching Beauty in Black due to Tyler Perry's inconsistency in making great content but wanted to give it a fair chance by watching it end to end. So, I did.

It was full of intrigue, debauchery, violence, twists, and turns. If one attempted to create a melodrama that combined elements of Empire (at its height), P-Valley, and Dynasty (at its height), the outcome would be Beauty in Black. The acting cast is solid with plausible performances throughout the series.

I struggled with 2 disappointments: the over-use of the N-word exchanged repeatedly between the Black characters AND the perpetuation of negative Black stereotypes. Tyler P has a great deal of influence and power in Hollywood. It would be refreshing to see him amplify images and voices consistently that are positive for the Black community. People (inside and outside of the Black community) take their cues from this content and may place more weight on the accuracy of its portrayals because a Black filmmaker is behind the camera. He can do better.

That said, if one wants a soapy, rollercoaster ride of melodrama, then I would recommend Beauty in Black.
