[@amberperry1321]

You didn’t mention it, but for Eva parents to be an hour and a half away but she’s driving back and forth 2, 3 times in one day was truly unrealistic and really shows how sloppy Tyler Perry is when it comes to writing things that makes sense.

[@katelynbrown98]

He writes like a middle schooler

[@Gchildwarrior]

Time and space logic doesn't exist in the TP universe

[@lowrider276]

Tyler's fervent commitment to delusion is actually admirable. A billionaire calling anyone HiGh BrOw...I have to laugh 😂 Second, it's weird that he sees himself as this champion of poor and working class folk when literally villainizes them in nearly every one of his films. They are there to be one dimensional strereotypes for comic relief or their evil abusive ppl while the protagonists are affluent or at the very least comfortably middle class. If the main character is poor, the movie basically trauma porn till she's saved by a rich or at least financially better off lightskin man wash, rinse, repeat I think that's why he's starting to lose favor among even his most loyal supporters. Poor folks aren't stupid like he thinks they are and no one appreciates being talked down to. The one credit I'll give this film is that at least it's encouraging women to divorce abusive men, hate the messaging that poor men are inherently absuive but it's Tyler Perry 🤷🏿‍♀️. It's good that the black church in this film is endorsing divorce because in the real world (and Perry's earlier works) the church has done so much damage telling women and girls it's better be abused than divorced.

Omg same! When they kept repeating about wanting to read the papers before she signed I was like “oh no, there’s probably something written on there where he takes her to the dry cleaners.” But it never happened 🤧

[@khalilgiovanni]

Now, I admittedly don't watch his movies (I've seen some of the comedies, Madea Witness Protection, and that first Halloween movie he did), so I could be wrong, but the last time he tried to "branch out" was that Alex Cross movie that no one cared about. That could be why he's sticking to the one recipe he knows. Well, he knows two, but he's seemed to have given up on that. I would assume it's because he's on the "can't make comedies because of cancel culture" train. Dude probably doesn't consume horror, fantasy, etc., so he can't fathom writing those sorts of things. And like I said, he tried the action thing and failed. But he didn't write or direct those, so technically, that's not (totally) a fail on his part. Just bad casting on theirs 😂

[@hurgenflerg2133]

Alex Cross was just an acting job, though. He was in Gone Girl two years later, and that seemed to work out fine.

[@genesissalone]

I think "A Jazzman's Blues," did pretty well, especially since it was released on Netflix back in 2022. That was a passion project he had written back in '95 but planned to release in '08 (some casting desires fell through). I believe if he would've continued to push it his legacy as a filmmaker would be VERY different from what it is today.

[@Ethieth]

Money over quality tbh, if he cared about the art form and talent he would take the hits of making less millions, but hes big and greedy so another madea movie here come, which makes sense as a business i guess

I’m so glad I decided to wait for your breakdown on this movie. I’m also rewatching sex and the city and I’m like good God, these women kinda suck, especially Carrie. Aspyn.J_here on KZbin does great breakdowns on sex and the city, especially big and carrie’s relationship. That episode of Carrie refusing to take therapy seriously and calling it self-indulgent triggers my fight response. And when Big confesses about leaving his wife, saying she’s “not insane” only for her to have a full blown affair🙄🙄

I notice that Tyler Perry loves to swoop in and rescue struggling or failing actors. He pays them way more than the average studio and then that actor goes public to rave about him. It’s so disingenuous. Hire people because they’re talented. Pay them according to their ability to sell a movie, not because you want to prove a point.

[@juanitahorton8210]

I agree totally. He's only made 2 decent movies and the best one was Jazz Man Blues. I thought he'd turned a page when that movie was released. It was said that he produced all those trash movies to put himself in a position to produce real quality. But then, he went back to business as usual.
