Meet the Browns (2008)
Baby you can do it, take your time, do it right.
I love Tyler Perry's plays. I loved his first two movies. Hoever, HIs last three movies felt long and drawn out. This last one, Meet The Browns, was not very funny. I laughed very few times. I am used to laughing so hard that my belly hurts and frankly that is what I wanted. I wanted to forget about my problems for 2 hours. Instead, In two hours Angela Bassetts electricity gets cut off, her son gets shot yet she manages to end up with a beautiful man, house and vehicle. Not reality. Brown (Mann) was over the top as usual and was the only thing I laughed at. I miss Madea in the movies because she is the grandmother or mother we all need in our lives and the voice of reason. The movies share the same sappy romantic lines and they all seem to end the same. I could hear people chuckling at the cheese ball lines. Although I will always support Tyler since I find that his message is good, I wish he would spend more time making the movie really funny and instead of over the top with things we can not relate to. When I left the theater I was still concerned that my own lights were going to be shut off and I had not laughed enough to forget about it. Instead, I had $11 dollars less in my pocket. Bassett was great though. I missed the inspirational singing. BRING MADEA BACK!
