The only reason I write review for this film is because I now write review for each film I watch. Since I have to fill 10 lines, I want to say that bloopers were possibly the most interesting part of the film. I really would not recommend anyone to watch this film, since it is not worth the money. Someone said it is better to buy a can of paint and paint your room and let it watch dry.I thought the Hollywood could not make bad movies any more, but this one is. There was that ultimate failure in Hollywood called Ed Wood who simply could not do films. Well, that is it. Although film about Ed Wood is excellent, Ed Wood was not.

People make this movie seem like it's the worst thing ever created. Sure, it wasn't all the "good". Although, a lot of reviews make this seem there isn't any comical value at all. There weren't very many part, but just enough to keep me watching, granted there a many problems with this movie, and I am not a huge fan of Tyler Perry's movies, but there were a few one liners that made me laugh, for example. "Betty Boop done Drooped." I actually laughed when that line was said. If you're a fan of Tyler Perry's movies, then give this a go. If not, if you need a cheap laugh or two, give it a go. I can assure you it's no where near as bad as people say. I give this movie a 4 out of 10.

STOP IT NOW!!!! its really the worst of all the terrible movies i've seen and i've seen plenty but these are just to sad... so pretty please with a cherry on top go find a new source of inspiration or create a short movie where she dies in the most brutal ways you could think of then i might even consider watching it

It's of course OK for a comedy to have a very simplistic story in it but its unforgivable when you just don't have a good comedy writer. Really, what's the point of watching a comedy when it just isn't being all that funny? I just couldn't believe how badly written some of the comedy in this movie was. Most of the moments or pieces of dialog will get absolutely no laughs out of you, no matter how desperate the movie gets at times. The movie truly goes overboard in an attempt to still make you laugh, or at other times it's simply just going on and on. The director just didn't knew when to say cut at times, probably also because the director, Tyler Perry, himself is being on the screen a lot as well, as a whole bunch of different characters. But he clearly just ain't no Eddie Murphy!The different story lines are either poorly connected or just connected in such an unrealistic way that it becomes ridicules. The movie even drops some story lines after a while and then picks them up again 30 minutes later, or sometimes it doesn't at all. It does the same with some of its characters. It all lets this movie feel like a real messy one at times and you are wondering multiple times throughout it what it exactly is that you are watching here.The main premise of the movie is already a real ridicules and unlikely one to begin with. But the sad thing about it is that it's also absolutely going nowhere with it. At times I though that the movie was perhaps going to be one with some 'messages' it and the two different families would start to learn from each other and slowly but steadily grow closer to each other as well. But none of that is the case in this movie. It just mostly relies on racial stereotypes and other prejudices that just aren't being all that clever or original to watch and therefore also not all that funny.And really, I love Eugene Levy but I just think he is better when he's not playing the lead role. He's just far better and more fun to watch in supporting roles, though it perhaps is not fair to say that purely based on his role in this movie of course. He is given some incredibly weak material to work with and the movie perhaps was at times relying far too much on his delivery. But not even a comical talent like Levy could turn some of the moments and pieces of dialog into something funny. And how are we supposed to believe he's married to Denise Richards? There is some weird casting going on in this movie but Tyler Perry foremost should not had cast himself playing 3 different characters. He just isn't a talented enough comic, so far too scenes involving him fall totally flat.A failed attempt at a comedy.4/10 http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
