The Good:
Zip. Zilch. Nada

The Bad:
I couldn’t tell if Perry instructed his actors to ad lib a lot or if his script was just a clunky, poorly written mess but all of the lines uttered in this movie were done in the most dreadful manner possible.
Speaking of the acting…everyone was terrible in this from people who have delivered quality work before like Vanessa Williams (what the hell was up with thet shitty French accent?) and Ella Joyce (who delivered all of her lines as if she was guest-starring in an episode of GOOD TIMES), or young actors that I am confident could do much better (Jurnee Smollett-Bell was a small wonder in the underrated film EVE’S BAYOU but she was like a first timer here) to Kim Kardashian who was just as terrible an actress as I expected her to be.

The Ugly
Tyler Perry has some serious issues when it comes to relationships, sex and the way he views women. The only good relationship is one where the woman maintains a certain level of subservience to her man and if the entire relationship is rigidly based on the tenets of the Bible. Sex is only reserved for a husband and wife, it should only occur in the marriage bed with the lights off and there should be no spontaneity or fun involved in it at all. And losing interest in your marriage, even if you are married to a dull, unsupportive clown who can’t even be bothered to remember your birthday several years in a row is a cardinal sin.
Now if you are a woman who dares to be non-religious, sexually free, and disinterested in puritan ideals of marriage and womanhood? well you are doomed to be used and abused by some jackass who will end up giving you HIV.
And for a flick abut infidelity and the dangers of sexual abandon this movie is the most chaste thing I have seen in years. There is nothing sexy about any second of this movie.

Final Verdict: I could think of a million things that I would prefer to have done in place of watching this sanctimonious, judgmental, overly melodramatic bit of hamfisted sermonizing. A root canal or self-flagellation would be more enjoyable exercises.
