This movie was another great hit for Tyler Perry. Because it moved myself and my grandma of how two peolpe from different back grounds and race could become best friends for thirty years. Kathy Bates was awsome. I enjoy the humor and strong will she bought to this flick. A lady with class and let down to earth. Robin Givens role was also awsonme. It truly showed how a black woman could acomplish her goals without sleeping her way to the top. I also like how they showed that you should never look down on anyone because that just might be the build to help get you over.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I love this film, although he did not cast my favorite actor in it ( Lamman Rucker), but it was great to see that Mr. Perry can really put it together when it comes to making a movie. All I have to say is... U R a Great Director, Producer and certainly a fine Actor Mr. Perry. Keep up the GOOD WORK!!! So when is the play The Marriage Counselor coming to St. Louis ?????
Yes, I recommend this movie.

As soon as I left the movies, I text my friends, called my family and told my co-workers to go and see that movie. Tyler is really something else. Every character played their role. That slap across her face was probably the highlight of the movie. I am sure he isn't condoning violence but dang she had it coming to her!!!! Tyler Perry and the whole cast deserves an award for that film!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This was one of Tyler perry's most moving and insightful movies ever. The characters were believable, loveable and hopelessly clueless. Sanaa Lathan played her role with the utmost sincerety. I recommend everyone to go watch this movie, you won't regret it.

Tyler Perry's newest movie, "The Family That Preys" is an excellent example of the gift that God has given him. He is an great writer/producer/director. He is coming into his own as a wonderful actor.
The story of a friendship maintained for 30 years by the main characters interjects the realities of life. Despite the rifts between family members, hurts and sorrows, this movie shows that life is really what you make it. It also shows that faith and love is key to living a decent life. Although hard as it might be sometimes, it is worth living right.
I loved this movie. Tyler continue in your tradition of wholesome great cinema. Oscar Micheaux would be proud! :0)

I LOVED THIS MOVIE!! I am going to see it again. Tyler Perrys' movies always have a heartfelt message mixed with laughter, pain, tears, joy, and real life. I can't wait for it to come on DVD because I will buy it from the store and not on bootleg. I fully support Tyler Perry and what he is doing for the black community.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The setting was really cool and the story line was especially meaningful and heart-warming. It had a good mixture of humor and real life stuff as well as great actors. My husband & I went to see it and were pleasantly surprised. We watch a fair amount of movies and were not sure about this one, but it far exceeded our expectations. Thanks Tyler Perry & crew!

9 ladies and I went to see the movie together We loved the movie it kept us laughing through out. The two older women set the stage, The cast was excellent, If I could suggest one thing for the movie that would be to show more of the affair Sanaa had that lead up to the big blow up, other than that the movie was excellent. To Tyler I would say keep producing quality movies that catches the eye of america today. You did it again

I thought this movie was good it wasn't the norm that we are use to seeing from Tyler with Comedy. It was issue's that people go through on a day to day basis it touch friendship and sister to sister issues I thought it was a very good change with a sad sort of ending. The only thing I would say did my brother have to be so in the dark he was just clueless and very for giving but still a great movie Thanks for the change Tyler

I am proud of Tyler Perry. This movie not crosses racial lines, it has good substance. The plot kept me interested. I am very proud of Tyler. He has done a wonderful job.
One thing that I do not like about this movie. is that Tyler tends to make certain characters in his movie dumb beyond dumbness. This makes his movies too slow and it jolts the rhythm of understanding.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

WHAT A LAME MOVIE!! Made by a "director-wanta-be!" I almost fell asleep it was soooo slow! The best thing tyler ever did was "Madea" and he should have stuck with that. You'd think with the support of the black community financially Tyler could do better, all they are doing is making him rich to produce sad, overacted, cheesy, not to mention tacky movies! YAWN!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
