Tyler Perry's A Madea Homecoming

Not the best movie ever made, some stale moments, but more good than bad. Tyler Perry is hilarious, some great jokes that hit really well. The big twist?! Yes I was shook.

I see a lot of strong opinions against this film here, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I liked it. I love the way Madea is always calling everyone baby, and I love her and Mrs. Brown's accents- the old-time southern US accent, and the Irish accent- they were a joy to the ears!

This movie is silly, but it's meant to be. So for what it is, I say well done! I hope Mrs. Brown and Madea come together for even more fun in the future too!

This is my first dose of Madea after only knowing her from The Boondocks. However I am pretty familiar with Agnes Brown. Not a fan but I can take her fine.

It's a fun cross-over concept though Madea never lets her steal the show. I feel very outside looking in at this constellation of stereotypes that feels at times like it was written to appeal to Klan members with its charicatures of the Urban black population. I admire the cynicism against the family member who is now a cop but I do wonder exactly whose side Mr. Perry meant me to be on. The ebonic rantings can be quite overwhelming and I feel almost guilty watching it the same way I feel guilty enjoying those penny dolls from that Raggedy Ann movie or Song of the South.

There is a jarring juxtaposition of tone as we go from broad sitcom comedy to some kind of Lifetime Drama. It's not even a parody kind of sentimental like Family Guy but deadly serious. They do these crazy collage style scene transitions. Words don't do them justice, I don't know what they thought they were doing.

Madea is a lot like Mrs. Brown, not just in being a parody of an ethnic Matriarch played by a man but in that while she is very goofy and shameless she also dispenses some good wisdom.

I don't want to hate this but it must be said that Robot Chicken got it nail on the head when they said it feels like a 16 year olds idea of what a problem-picture should sound like. There isn't really an issue to talk about here, it's just character comedy and soapy drama but you can feel it.

Kind of a fascinating experience, at one point they have a black and white flashback to Rosa Parks with anachronisms but I am reluctant to consider this much more than a bit of racially insensitive prolefeed.

This was my first time watching a Madea movie and I was not disappointed. It will have you laughing out loud in some parts. Tyler Perry is so funny and talented. The plot is so simple and easy enough to follow and understand what is going on. This movie is worth watching. I give it a solid B+

Madea....she's one crazy lady, my first ever time seeing the character, after watching this, I can't wait to see the other films.

I do know Mrs Brown however, and the combination was somewhat surreal. What was going on with that makeup, those cheeks were well rouged up.

It's almost a pity that there's so much bad language through it, as this could be enjoyed by kids, if I were twelve I'd have watched this over and over.

It is absurd, it's insanely absurd, but it's well meaning and well intentioned, with all that's happening in the world right now, sometimes it's just nice to escape into a world of silliness, and forget some of the world's horrors.

Tyler Perry is wonderful, and I really did buy into the humour.

I've chosen not to read other reviews, and I can only just imagine some of that comments, but take it for what it is, light hearted fun, 7/10.
