3/10
Lacks what the first had

While I do enjoy the good majority of Tyler Perry's work, and absolutely loved the first 'Why did I get Married?' ; I find myself a bit annoyed with the storyline of the sequel.

The flaws I see with this movie are what the majority of people have said; the ending was horrible and there are a lot of loose ends.

The story of Mike going through chemo could have been closed properly. Though not a big part in this movie, it still drew me in enough to want to know what happened with his character.

Also Gavin dying from whatever injuries he sustained from the car accident was very abrupt. This might have seemed like a clever way to put in a message about how life suddenly takes a drastic turn, but this left a bad taste in my mouth.

As for the other couples... I did wonder where their stories ended. One kiss and everything is all better? No, no no! This is not how things work. They should have expanded more on these stories as well as the main plot.

There are other issues with this movie I'd address but I'll just leave it to the viewer to find them.

All in all I give this movie a 3/10 stars. It lacks character development. It lacks an ending that is satisfying. A poor sequel to a movie that was actually good.
