"Peeples" is an awkward meet-the-parents-type of comedy, that unfortunately doesn't really stand out in any particular way compared to the many other movies in the same genre that has come and gone over the years.The story is about Wade (played by Craig Robinson) who travel to pay a surprise visit to his girlfriend Grace Peeples (played by Kerry Washington) while she is visiting her family in the Hamptons. The Peeples seem to have it all, but things are not entirely picture-perfect underneath the surface, and situations boil over as Wade enters the picture.The situations in the movie are good enough and there is an occasional laugh to be found here and there, but be warned that the movie will not have you laughing constantly throughout the entire length.As for the people on the cast list, then they had put together a good ensemble of people for the various roles, and each did bring something unique to the movie. And the chemistry between the various characters (and actors) be it for a good or bad situation was working quite well. It was David Alan Grier, who played the father in the movie, who was doing the best performance here and carried most of the movie.However, I am rating "Peeples" a mere 5 out of 10 stars, because it never stepped out of mediocrity, and truth be told, then there are far better comedies in this particular genre. But still, it is good for a laugh or two if you have nothing better to do.

This review is written primarily for those who are considering whether or not to take their children to see this movie. I took my 13-year old to see this movie and definitely should have reviewed the content and movie reviews before doing so. I simply saw that it was a Tyler Perry show and PG-13 and assumed we would love it. Although there are plenty of funny scenes, there are also some they can do without. The scenes with sexual content (both heterosexual & homosexual, and scenes about a 3-some) could have been left out of this movie without impacting the storyline. These scenes clearly aren't appropriate for a PG-13...not sure why it's rated as such. I highly recommend you leave your children home for this Tyler Perry movie. Hopefully the next one will come out with the correct ratings and with more humor.

Wow. I was so impressed with this film I created an IMDb account just to rate it! The trailer really didn't do it any justice at all. After the first five minutes, things really got going and I never stopped laughing. I honestly didn't expect much from the movie and went out to support the actors and director-because I love them. When I say this movie will have you bursting with laughter I'm not lying! Aside from that, Kerry Washington has never looked more stunning. I was literally in awe of her beauty the whole time-she showed up and showed out! David Alan Grier has never been funnier. The son truly stole the show. And of course, the lead character Wade had crazy good comedic timing. With that said, I'm not going to lie there were a few awkward moments in the first five minutes. But everything after that made up for it. I think it is receiving low ratings because some people genuinely don't like Tyler Perry at this point. And, the film featured some content Perry's loyal fans might not be used to. It's their loss. Everyone involved should be proud of this film. This is going down as a classic in my book-one of those movies where black life would be different, less lush, less rich and less funny without it! I wish I were a Peeples. I can't wait to buy the DVD!@lona

I could not help but notice a post that read "Peeples" should be rated R for "lesbian situations." Exactly what is that supposed to mean? What if I said it should be rated R for heterosexual situations? Does that make any sense? It sounds weird. I wonder if this person goes around throwing the rated R sticker on movies just because they have lesbian characters. That is bigoted. Same-sex attraction is not just an adult thing and there is nothing wrong or inappropriate about being a lesbian.Now to my review: Wade (Craig Robinson) is trying to find the perfect time to propose to his girlfriend Grace (Kerry Washington) but has no luck. When Grace visits her family in the Hamptons, Wade decides to show up by surprise and meet the family himself.I enjoyed seeing Craig Robinson and Kerry Washington in the movie "Peeples". I thought it was funny. I took my mom to see the movie on Mother's Day and she loved it. One of my favorite scenes was when Grace tried to introduce Wade to her parents.I believe the PG-13 rating fits the movie. I notice some people on here would beg to differ.There are no nudity or sex scenes included. There is this one scene where Wade has Grace over his lap and he is spanking her, but that's about it. This movie does a perfectly good job at binding everything together to form a family comedy to enjoy. I plan to see this movie again.(Ms. Review is a 25 year old female who writes short stories on her free time.)
