You’re going to Madea’s house to laugh, forget your troubles and perhaps get a good Christian message. To Perry’s credit, he does a far better job of folding that message into the film than usual. Read full review

Tyler Perry hasn’t generally been in the business of sequels, but apart from Joe’s overly salty soul-food patter, this one has a joyless, obligatory, cardboard feeling that marks it as one of Perry’s least satisfying films. Read full review

Tyler Perry’s Boo 2! A Madea Halloween would be tone deaf, lacking in plot, and almost entirely humorless in any year. That is happens to arrive in theaters amid a cascade of sexual assault survivors sharing their stories about sexual assault doesn’t help its case. Read full review

In the end, the scariest thing about Boo 2! is the idea that A Madea Easter might be next. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersOct 20, 2017
While its predecessor at least pleased his fans, writer-director-star Perry’s latest offers few laughs and embarrassing post-production work. Read full review

The New York TimesGlenn KennyOct 20, 2017
This movie finds Mr. Perry, never the most deft at the technical aspect of filmmaking, drastically off whatever his best game is. Read full review
