MR PERRY PLEASE!Props to Tyler Perry for his latest film effort, "Why Did I Get Married". The girls and I checked it out this weekend and thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Apparently much of America did, as it's topping box office sales at 21.3M!
It was nice to see so many couples in the movie theatre. I was encouraged that men felt they might find something worthy in this film as well. I know I will be taking my man to see it.
In, "Why Did I Get Married", the roles were well defined and believable. If you didn't see yourself in one of the characters you saw someone you knew. The relationships high lighted in this film showed the importance of true friendship. It also gave a real glimpse of how marriages work, and why many fail. I was impressed with the complexity of each marriage relationship and how friendships are challenged among couples.
There were moments when we laughed, cried out in disbelief, shed tears and wanted to rewrite the scene to suit our individual wishes. But Tyler portrayed things how they are not how they should be.
If you are like me, you'll want to go back during the middle of the day while others are at work, so that you can hear all those scenes the other movie goes muted out with their laughter and comments.
It might stir up some uneasy emotions for you, but it is definitely worth the watch, and it just might remind those among the married why they stay in it for the long haul.

I too loved this movie and plan on buying it from a credible movie store when it comes out. I give Tyler the upmost respect for attempting and being successful at this critical topic. Black families are being destroyed because we do not understand nor value the complexities of a relationship. This movie is a great start to sharing those complexities and giving couples a platform to start the discussion on how to keep their marriages together or how to go into a marriage.
I HAVE NOT SEEN THE MOVIE. I WILL MAKE A EXTRA EFFORT TO GO SEE IT PROBABLY TODAY.... I KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE SO GOOD. THE FEEDBACK IS FOUR STAR.... I COULD NOT TALK MY BETTER HALF INTO TAKING ME SO I WILL GO ANYWAY...
Thanks for the love ladies and support for our guy Tyler! Shindig I hope you got a chance to check it out...and as soon as it comes to DVD we will make sure your better half gets a copy.
