yes i think she is hillariously funny. but if you look at all his movies there are two stories going on in one movie. honestly i laughed when media shows up. but i was bored with the drama part . as most in the audience was. the movie i loved the most was daddys little girls.it was funny inspiring and showed we are all elitists what any hue we are. but like aesop the ending was a moral and great ending. have the movie on my computer watch it all the time. extremely well acted and the script was great. now that type of movie i can get into and have a good time with. he should do more of these. as for medea they could have done a whole movie with her in prison it would be hillarious.

As a young black woman… i thought madea goes to jail hillarious…parts of madea remind me of my grandma…and I can identify with their family dynamic. Sorry to those who may not find Madea funny but honestly…its a cultural thing. And its nice to go to the theater and see blacks protrayed more positively than negatively. Hollywood seems to portray the black community so poorly. Heck, Denzel won an oscar for playing a crooked cop…a thug…the very thing I find distasteful. What message does that send to our young black children….that was not a proud day for me….

Plus, as a Georgia native, I see where Perry has employed a lot of locals, and given a positive image to the black community that he is trying to support. I say, good on him. There are a lot of hip-hop businesses around the ATL area, and most of them glorify the negative side of the business. Perry is trying, so I support that.

I am one of the few non-movie goers who post here. I don't watch very many, even on pay channnels, or On Demand. However, I did watch the Tyler Perry "Madea Family Reunion" movie one weekend when I had a cold. Personally, I liked the message. It railed against young blacks who acted like hip-hop trash, it showed family being the most important thing, it showed family supporting an abused wife, and ostracizing the beater. There was even more, but isn't that a good thing? Yes, there was silly stuff, and the movie did drag in certain sections, but overall, I liked it. I would watch more of his flicks.
