This movie has a very similar vibe to something that you would find on Tubi, which says A LOT about Mr. Perry’s writing and storytelling.

[@alientingz7733]

Tyler just needs to put his greed and pride to the side and hire writers. He's writing the same material with different settings and characters. You know it's bad you can already tell what's about to happen because he's done this before. Therefore, when things start hitting the fan, you aren't even surprised. You saw it coming.

[@AdeleKakwandi]

He needs to put his ego aside too. There's actually deeply talented black people out there desperate for the opportunities to tell very smart well written stories but he refuses to give others opportunity and makes it about himself. He's a selfish narcissist like Oprah.

[@alientingz7733]

The mother wasn't treating Mea like family but the moment she wanted to take the case or was looking into it, she brought up the fact they were "family". She would even try to manipulate Mea at the end the moment she figured it out by saying "Oh help me... Im so weak" like she wasn't standing off to the side when Mea was in the kitchen on the phone if anyone caught that. Like she was rude and odd since the start. Nu uh

If these directors are going to continue doing these "erotic thrillers," can they please get an actual objectively hot guy to play the hot weirdo creepy guy? That's the one thing 365 Days did right. I'm not saying the Mea Culpa guy is unattractive. He just looks like an average guy. I'm not convinced he's so irresistibly hot or s3xy where an attorney would risk her bar card to smash. On a positive note, Kelly Rowland's wigs were on point. Either she did her own hair or TP actually put some money on the wig budget instead of making them himself.

[@itslonda4157]

Saying Trevante Rhodes is not objectively sexy is insane 💀 Finding an objectively sexy guy to play the creep is the only thing Tyler Perry got right about erotic thrillers

[@meganchambers8108]

Congrats on 700k Kennie! We love your channel

[@jadachoates11]

I couldn't wait to hear your prospective. Tyler said he was inspired by 90s erotic thriller movies such as Basic Instinct, Fatal Attraction & Jagged Edge. Those movies are wayyyy better than TP. This movie had too holes in the story, the characters were not fully developed & at time predictable. Kelly did good for this to be her first serious lead role but she deserved a way better script. I was disappointed with this movie as a whole.

[@moustik31]

The ego of this man! He genuinely believes that his movie hold on in comparaison!!!

[@musicalriotgrl1]

Perry also has this way of taking credible legitimate actors and making them look like the highest level they have is high school play like that man was in Moonlight. He was in the movie that won best picture Oscar that year. He was nominated for an Oscar And he's just the most unsexy uncarismatic creep he also likes to do this thing like "see, you never know who it could be or what's really going on underneath the surface of a person or people" and it's very uninteresting and it's never the gotcha that he thinks it is

[@Yasmine11011]

The way it's packaged for western TV series just feels so voyeuristic. It's gratuitous. Like "here's your female empowerment look how sex positive they are, jk, it's really just sexualization of women on screen for the male gaze". It’s just porn at this point. Nudity for shock and has no purpose whatsoever. Relationships take time to develop and that you can enjoy the chemistry between the leads without it jumping straight to 3 episodes in and they are already having intense love scenes. I like clapping in excitement when they have their first kiss well into the run of the show, because it feels earned and real and not just a result of hormones.

[@GAshoneybear]

I think this premise could have worked if they focused more on the execution (no pun intended) of the family trying to ruin their lives such as: - How they got the girl to agree to use her blood and bone fragments - How they got a hospital/treatment center to agree to send fake itemized statements to unsuspecting hapless idiot couple. - How the DA convinced a judge that there was no issue with the defendant sleeping with his spouse.

[@TNDRAV]

Unpopular opinion: I don't think that man is that attractive. Like Kelly is stunning but like he is not that cute to me like I don't see it lol.

Tyler Perry recently had a casting call in Atlanta, but only it was only opened for Caucasians. Maybe it was for particular roles. 🤔. We definitely need Spike Lee, Nate Parker, Mario Van Peebles, Denzel Washington, Wesley Snipes, etc to direct more movies. Tyler Perry can be the ONLY African-American film maker to make movies, and his movies is forced to be tolerated in the Black African-American community.

[@mygoldenwitch]

Okay, from 36:20 on, I think this might possibly be the first BM&AB where things got *so* convoluted and nonsensical that despite your admirable attempt at untangling it I still had to rewind to hear it all again because wait, so when did-- no, but why would they-- and how could he possibly have-- WHAT IS HAPPENING, and most importantly WHOSE BLOOD AND SKULL IS THAT. This certainly was a series of scenes played in a sequential order. 700k well-deserved! These are some of my biggest comfort videos, you've got this great way of both story- and retelling while infusing it with your own vibe and humour. Though I also love that you don't shy away from more serious topics and call them out when presented in the movies you cover (I still remember that one boss move where you switched to Korean to rip the director of that weird rap battle movie-in-a-movie 'film' to shreds over its casual use of slurs and... well the entire insult that was that movie, tbh). Good Movies & A Glam, too, always happy when one of those drops, though I usually don't watch them until I've seen them myself. I *really* loved your two-parter on The Skin I Lived In; I hadn't heard of it before, but as I recall I got a few minutes into your first video, realised this definitely sounded like a film I'd like to watch, so I put it on hold until I'd gathered the courage. Excellent film. Half of me immediately wanted to rewatch it with all that recontextualisation; the other did NOT want to touch it again for at least a good year because damn, there was some brutal and triggering stuff in there. Your videos scratched that itch of wanting to think about it more without having to rewatch it. And to close this all off I low-key love that we've slowly gotten to a point where you're not even commenting on whether your make-up's already on. That's CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, PEOPLE. Anyway yeah will hand in my next essay at 1M look forward to it

He's so unimaginative he can't think of a way to introduce characters, plot lines, or narratives w/o his usual, tired bag of tropes. I think he makes everyone lawyers bc it's an easy shortcut to #1 introduce his characters to people they otherwise might never meet, #2 an easy way to explain wealth and a flexible schedule, and #3 automatic character assumptions based on what the audience already generally knows abt lawyers (smart, assertive, clever, duplicitous, et al). He doesn't have to spend as much time developing them further so he can rush through the script.

@@seroquelzI honestly think he writes his scripts starting with making character A a lawyer then making a convoluted story around the character being a lawyer

They do it in the real world😢

I hate that we saw no court scenes or anything of the case. I wanted to see SOMETHING that showed Mea was actually intelligent or self aware lol.

[@darkkittie099]

THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS UP! It aggravated me that everyone said she was "the best" and extremely intelligent. Then Tyler Perry make her make a gazillion mistakes and then no true opportunity for her to show her "greatness" and show off her lawyer chops. I am convinced Tyler Perry hates women lol.

[@leroyce]

@@darkkittie099 💯 ‼️ 🎯 exactlyyyy lol. I agree Tyler does not write to uplift women at all. This movie was pretty long to not do any character development 😩 maybe it should've been like a mini series. Soap operas seem to be his thing.

[@daniboy4153]

This is a Tyler Perry movie, don't expect him to write strong black women. He really doesn't like that for some reason.

[@shanettequao9043]

When I saw “written, produced and filmed by Tyler perry” that’s a the biggest flag to turn the MF tv off!

Maybe I’m foolish for expecting something better 😂

That's EVERY Tyler Perry movie! That's why he sucks 😂

[@Jackieeeisvibing]

No yeah and then he was bragging about like how he doesn’t have any writers or editors. He does it all himself, so this is just an echo chamber of his own mind he needs to be stopped😭😭

Random fact, the husband and the guy from the Vanessa Hudgen’s movie are brothers IRL 😭🩷
