Tyler Perry did it again. He had me laughing so hard my stomach hurt and crying so hard my throat hurt. Wonderful story about old friendships, guilt, deceit, love...and Madea! Haha...enough said there. I always love the Cast in his movies, he really knows how to pick them. Glad t...( read more)

I know it was quirky, but I actually laughed throughout this whole movie! Tyler Perry is hilarious as Madea. I really enjoyed this movie. ;)

Tyler Perry plays have always made uneven transitions to the screen and this one is no exception.

5/22/09. Its great to see Madea on the big screen. Sofia Vergara was actually funny for once. I wish they would have just kept the storyline with Madea.
Critic Reviews
The best parts of Madea Goes to Jail are the title character's motormouthed harangues. The rest of it is a fairly clumsy tale of sin and redemption. full review

April 4, 2009I never get bored watching Tyler Perry's movies."Madea's family reunion" and "why did i get married" are a hit.

March 27, 2009I ENJOY TYLER PERRY'S MOVIES. I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THE NEXT PROJECT HE COMES UP WITH. THE STORY LINES ARE REALISTIC AND COMICAL. WHAT I LEARN FROM WATCHING TYLER PERRY PROJECTS IS FORGIVENESS. LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE ANGRY ALL THE TIME. GET ON WITH LIFE AND GET OVER IT.

February 24, 2009I've only really seen a couple of Tyler's plays, never saw any other film, or production he's done. My reason for being naturally drawn to this film is of course Madea's morbid hatred for the police. That is one thing we both have in common.
It was very nice to see Keshia on the silver screen, she will always be my little Rudy lol. Derek Luke...... All I can say is, "is there a day you dont look that good?" lol -
