  Cast: Tyler Perry, Loretta Devine, Bow Wow, Cassi Davis, Shannon Kane, Lauren London, Rodney Perry, David Mann, Tamela Mann, Isaiah Mustafa Director: Tyler Perry Summary: As soon as she learns about her niece Shirley's health issues, super-grandma and problem-solver Madea takes over the situation one more time, summoning together her highly fragmented clan in this madcap dramatic comedy all about family values. My Thoughts: "Not the best to come from Tyler, but not the worse one either. I just think some of his story lines get recycled a lot. There is always someone being sexually abused in some form or way. I did enjoy some of the film though. I thought going on Maury was hilarious and showed a good example on how foolish some of those girls look. Medea is always funny and brings the wisdom and laughs. I just wish the films weren't so heavy all the time. I enjoyed Loretta Devine in this movie. I love her acting and think she's a great actress. She brings a lot of emotion to the table. I also thought Bow Wow did a great job in the movie. I would have liked to see more of his story played out. But in the end it was just OK for me. On to the next which I'm sure there will be another."

  Not the best Tyler Perry movie by any stretch, but it's not the worst either. It's kind of uneven with it's mix of comedy and drama(luckily, this isn't nearly as melodramatic as other Perry movies.) But overall, it's pretty entertaining. The story is about Shirley, a woman who's been battling cancer and her battle is coming to an end. She needs to tell her family, but her family is so broken apart that she can't get them all together to tell them. She gets the help of her Aunt Madea to get her family together, and things go from there. Madea is either annoying or hilarious depending on who you ask, well I find her hilarious. Perry is awesome and has some great one liners as Madea and Joe(his "help me" lines about the floor are awesome). The rest of the cast is good, and they do their jobs well as the "standard Tyler Perry" supporting cast. If you enjoy Perry's movies(and I do), then you will like this. If you don't like them, then you probably wouldn't want to watch this anyway.

  Tyler Perry's Madea's Big Happy Family is a hilarious film, and i'm one of the few people who think the character of Madea is hilarious, but this movie is also just like all the past films juyst with different dramatic situations. The plot of the film makes you want to see how each dramatic stoy ends because they are all so f#cked up, just like every other Tyler Perry movie, and soon it gets kind of boring. The cast is half funny people, and half dramatic actors, now the funny people like Tyler Perry and David mann made me laugh, and all the other actors are sad, and although they played good roles, the old bad relationship acting gets really boring, just a bunch of crying people who are too big a wimps to do anything so madea has to step in. This movie was hilarious and l love the character of Madea, but this movie is also too dramatic and has too many problemns to consider itself a real movie, and overall its just another Tyler Perry film.

  07/05/2011 (DVD) The most funniest film I have seen this year!! A flick I found funny no matter alone, with friends and even with family, its just very entertaining and stupid in a stylish comedic although unoriginal way. No plot of the year here but just a really comfortable flow that I found easy to follow and willing to to see to the end. The dramatic points in the movie really were serious and no joking around which I liked, usually comedies still add comedy in the crucial points that are suppose to be serious but this film really pumped the dramatic points which allowed me to ponder on the situation where as other funny films would distract me with laughter at those points of the story. Also I thought the players were very good. I've known about "The Tyler Perry" flicks for a while now but this is actually the first I've seen of a "Tyle Perry" film and so far very impressive in terms of my type of humor. I do very much recommend it for groupie sessions or even a lonesome evening, day whatever. A nicely prepared dramatic side-dish complemented the film making it not entirely stupid.

  Another hilarious adventure that brings Madea back into the helm of saving the most coveted prize of our culture...the family. It is up to oMadea along with the help of zany Aunt Bam to help save her cousin Shirley's family, being that they are buried in their own problems when hers is the most horrifying problem of them all. See this it is a collection of emotions that pulls you through the movie which you have got to experience.

  Big but far from happy, Tyler Perry's latest flick perpetuates some negative stereotypes...namely, that a 7-foot man in drag can A.) be confused for a woman; and B.) funny. With a ready-made audience eating out of his hands, Perry continues the ever-expanding Madea storyline by spooning out more of the same schlock. Beyond weak acting and writing, this simple formula includes slingshot-feeding Christian values and well-meaning morals to the audience. Is this necessarily a bad thing? No-in fact, some simple homespun optimism can be refreshing in lieu of the gratuitous blood, guts, and sex usually saturating cinema screens. What's distressing is the simplicity itself. Each and every problem is solved with the same easy-peasie-lemon-squeezie tidiness that still makes '50s sitcoms like Ozzie and Harriet seem so laughably out-of-touch. Instead of being upstanding, Perry's pat resolution to life's drama demeans such issues as divorce, paternity, cancer, and - yes - family. In this PG-13-rated dramedy, a wisecracking, take-no-prisoners granny (Perry) tries to corral the distracted adult children (Shad 'Bow Wow' Gregory Moss, Isaiah Mustafa) of a niece (Devine) who wants to deliver some distressing health news to her family. Okay, the audience gets it-the gi-normous woman with anger issues gets things done. If moviegoers hadn't figured this out in Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Madea's Family Reunion, Meet the Browns, Madea Goes to Jail, or I Can Do Bad All By Myself, they certainly will here. Like Deus Ex Machina, this mother figure swoops in and explains the obvious and gives all involved valuable life lessons with an acid tongue...only real-life drama never gets resolved so easily or condescendingly. Bottom line: Big fat nothing.

  The thing about Tyler Perry's movies is that you can't expect all of it to be comedy. There's your standard melodrama here and there which slows the pace of the movie down. It's annoying how none of this melodrama is shown in the trailer, only the funny scenes. The melodrama is a tad too predictable if you have seen more than one Tyler Perry-directed film. But outside the movie's melodrama, the humor is a bit hit-and-miss. You will either be laughing or not; it's all based on your personal taste in humor. Some of the humor might make you scratch your head in confusion, but some of it will make you jump out your seat. Overall, Madea's Big Happy Family is a major improvement over Madea Goes to Jail, but it's a Tyler Perry movie, and Tyler Perry movies don't really cover new ground.

  helle'r? yes folks, madia is back, the manly disguesed woman that has big rage and big everything is back, with the whole family. now i just want to say that tyler perry is not that bad of a director, even though he is loving to be a women, bit i digress. this sequal is like all the madea movies, but i must admit, i did find the relationships with the family quite interesting, for once, but theirs too much disfunction and way too much cliched drama for my taste, i find the film much more intresting when madea is on screen, as usual. and also their is too much people i dont give a f about, like the two girls that was with the young teen, especially the one that keeps sayibg 'rrreeeeeeeeeeennn!' god did she gave me a headache like never before! and the woman who dosent care about the family. the movie is a funny and often touching comedy drama of tyler perrys form of taste, but its way too overloaded with over the top, cliched drama and uncaring character. but theirs always 1-(800) choke that hoe!

  The only Madea movie I've seen so far. A mixed bag but I was amused. Wasn't expecting such a sad 2nd half of the movie.
