    A funny story about a tragic death that kept me laughing until the end of the movie. It's a romance-comedy movie unlike any other.

    This is not Tyler's best work. In fact, this is Tyler's worst work... And that is saying a lot coming from me. He adjusted the plotline from the play and he should not have done that. I'm sure there were perfectly sound reasons for the adjustments, but those reasons don't pan out in the final conclusion. And these people giving this movie a grat rating are either lying or they don't know what a good movie should be. This movie did too much, tried to explain too much, most of the actors gave mediocre performances, and the scene with Medea was just completely out of sync. *sigh* It could have been VASTLY improved. I'm so disappointed.

    I am a BIG fan of Tyler Perry and all of his productions on and off the big screen. This was well done, but as always I prefer the plays.

    The overall story was good but I felt the moive could have had more in it. Like more drama with the father and after the son got shot it could have lingered on that a little more then just having him be ok and get back to basketball. Also, there could have be more romance & drama between Brenda and Harry. And although the scene with Madea was funny it didn't fit in the moive.

    i was really disappointed with this. not very funny, humour felt forced, very little chemistry between angela b and rick fox. david mann was the bright spot in the movie.

    Tyler Perry movies are the best family, comedy movies I have watched. This movie was fun to watch and you certainly learn a lot from it when it comes on to family.

    I love Tyler Perry, but despite my loyalty I'll admit he can often be over done for film, such is the case here as well. But still an okay movie.

    I love Tyler Perry's plays, so I had to see this movie. It was a heartwarming story, and I could definitely relate to living in a single-parent home. It was a great movie!

    Another Tyler Perry movie that has positive family morals, star cast, and of course, at least an appearance from Madea. It didn't really make sense, her five minute debut, but she made it worth the five minutes. Madea has that presence about her that has you glued to her every word. Angela Bassett's character truly related to me, at the time that I saw this movie, with her finanical struggles, and still managing to go on day to day, for the sake of her kids. In fact, this one was actually the first Tyler Perry movie that was better than the actual play. Kudos to that, because the play doesn't hold a candle to the movie. Keep them coming, Tyler Perry. But, don't forget Madea next time.

    Tyler is a gifted writer/director and actor. This movie allowed me to see and feel what a single mom and kids what they deal with on a day to day basis. I give props to all the single moms out there trying to do the right thing. Hang on and the blessing will come!!!

    Tyler Perry did it again!!! Thought this was a very moving movie with a very powerful meaning!

    Angela Bassett was great as the empowering single mother trying to make it & Fox was good as the love interest. I also hope to see more of Gross.

    I loved her entire extended family, because each of them reminded me of someone I knew! They were hilarious & kept you laughing!!

    Think this is a good movie for anyone, just shows how families stick together & miracles happen during the oddest times!

    Your typical Tyler Perry, family friendly film. Full of comedic relief and moral values. A great film for the family to sit down and watch together. Still though as a TP fan I must say it doesn't come close to my favorite, diary of a mad black woman. That's still tops the list. Looking forward to seeing Madea goes to Jail.

    This movie officially SUCKED, the storyline was predictable and the acting sucked, was barely fuunny enough to make me laugh. The only part I enjoyed was the car chase, if you have seen it you know what I mean, if you haven't, well you would notice it as the only real funny part in the movie.

    Nice movie. The acting wasn't all that but as usual with Tyler Perry, a positive message. I really appreciate his production style, especially today when there's so much crap being promoted on t.v. Rick Fox wasn't too bad. Angela Bassett and David Mann were great - as Mr. Brown he is hilarious! Lance Gross was good too.

    This movie is nothing like meet the parents, its a very funny story about a BLACK family pulling together in the time of need. And every family has a person that can relate to each and every charcter. But in main subject of the movie is that faith and love will bring one through any hard times. SO BOO to all the people that didn't get the point.

    I never gave the whole Tyler Perry movie thing a try because i thought they would be ridiculous and ghetto, but man was i wrong! I can't believe how wrong i was! well, 2 days ago i went with a bunch of people that really wanted to see this movie. i kept saying to myself, "i just know this is going to be ghetto." well, as i already said i was wrong. This movie was powerful, real, heart-felt and funny, all at the same time. this is the kind of light i like to see black films in. it was truly inspiring. it tells a tale of a struggling single mom, Brenda, doing her best to raise her kids and keep them out of trouble, while living a very poor stressful life in the projects of Chicago. one day she gets a letter saying that her father (whom she has never met) has died, and that she is invited to the funeral. Little did Brenda know that going to the backwoods of Georgia to meet the family she has never met, would change her life forever. The poor single mom, finds how powerful the love from family can be, and how hard believing in love is, but when you find it , you should never let go. This movie tells a story of true love and family really well. i was truly touched. i cried during the scene where Brenda finally confesses her love to the guy in the movie. How she was telling him that she was afraid. But she would rather be afraid and with him, than not afraid and without him. it was so beautiful. it sounds like something i would say to a guy. this movie made me proud because it wasn't ghetto, it has no cussing, no violence, and no sex. it was hilarious, powerful and inspirational. i was wrong about tyler perry movies and i will be sure to check out the whole collection.
