This movie was so different from Perry's usual style that I was thoroughly impressed. Elba and Union were just terrific.

Elba and Union were just terrific. However, I really wish that the movie would have included how 'Julia's' friends dealt with her decision to go with her heart and not her socioeconomic status.

This movie showed that Tyler Perry can go beyond the silliness of the Medea films. Not to knock them, there were excellent films with a message and humor. But this one puts the plight of a strong black man in the forefront. Yes it maybe a This movie showed that Tyler Perry can go beyond the silliness of the Medea films. Not to knock them, there were excellent films with a message and humor. But this one puts the plight of a strong black man in the forefront. Yes it maybe a repeative theme, but it works and the uplifting message is always a plus. Expand

I enjoyed everything about this movie. It's teaches us to humble ourselves in any situation that pertains to everyday life. Every movie Tyler directs, or acts in are always real issue and are benefical. Keep up the good work and I enjoyed everything about this movie. It's teaches us to humble ourselves in any situation that pertains to everyday life. Every movie Tyler directs, or acts in are always real issue and are benefical. Keep up the good work and continue seeking God's face for more wisdom to reach the African American communites. This movie demostrates their are descent black men who take care of their children inspite of the "baby mama drama". I love you Tyler. Expand

Give credit to Tyler Perry for not glamorizing drug dealing, criminal activities, selfish actions and the like. Tyler Perry advocates practical Christian and family values, and it ends up making a masterpiece! I love this movie as well asGive credit to Tyler Perry for not glamorizing drug dealing, criminal activities, selfish actions and the like. Tyler Perry advocates practical Christian and family values, and it ends up making a masterpiece! I love this movie as well as every other Tyler Perry films! Of course as expected critics underestimate ANOTHER great movie by Tyler Perry. Of course people will rate this movie low because they're JEALOUS that Tyler Perry is so wealthy and succesfull! Remember jealousy is a sin!!!... Expand

Movie was not well scripted. Too predictable, not enough details to back up story. Very bad acting from most of the characters.

The movie was mediocre at best...Tyler's in yo face theater screen antics, and melodramatic, exaggerated characters sometime gets embarassing. The poor dialogue and sloppy scene transition loses and bores you into looking for other good The movie was mediocre at best...Tyler's in yo face theater screen antics, and melodramatic, exaggerated characters sometime gets embarassing. The poor dialogue and sloppy scene transition loses and bores you into looking for other good points about the movie. It's your average black cliche movie about a down and out black person rising above adversity with sermons and speeches exploiting black people short comings. Nothing was unpredictable abourt this feel good movie. Expand

Without Gabrielle Union and Idris Elba, this movie would have been a 5 or lower. That said, the movie plays out like a tv sitcom that has pretty decent scenes that do not come together as a whole. There is no real sense of true progression Without Gabrielle Union and Idris Elba, this movie would have been a 5 or lower. That said, the movie plays out like a tv sitcom that has pretty decent scenes that do not come together as a whole. There is no real sense of true progression or continuity through the whole film. There is a deeper level (iGabrielle Union and Idris Elba. .e. the messages and themes) that Perry doesnt dig into - that if done corrrectly, would make this film GREAT. But Perry has a niche market and I'm sure he rather play it safe rather then alienate his audience. Still worth a look though, just to see Union and Elba. Expand

sometimes tyler perry can be a screw in the head with his films like tempation . but this one is to evil getting divorced and letting the girls that you love go and you give the girls to a whore mother who slaps her child and smokes .
