Madea's Family Reunion ResolutionsReview created: 11/15/06(updated 11/17/06)

Tyler Perry is a handsome man of color who is so gifted as an actor, writer, and director of this film. The family reunion is not the mainline story of the movie: a young woman being physically and emotionally abused by a rich fiance' bully is.
Madea (Tyler Perry) is probably as conventional a sassy an "post menopausal" American black woman as can be characterized on the silver screen. Perry cross-dressed as Madea is so convincing that I don't even remember Madea is a man underneath the clothes and character.
She's flat out hysterically funny. Her husband is also a riot and too true to life, Perry is scripting them as quite typical for their age, class, culture, and situations.
If you've not seen a Madea movie, this is the one to view. You're really missing a work of art that sends amazingly real cultural and moral messages. In particular, Maya Angelou's and Cicely Tyson's performances are truly historical. Angelou's physical gestures are too rich in sarcasm and perfectly played. Her poetic self is true to her usual meticulous form. Cicely Tyson delivers the message of the movie with the finesse of one of the great actors. Her character is quite similar to Toni Morrison's "Baby Shug," in her Pulitzer prize winner, "Beloved."
The third and latest of Tyler Perry's Madea films is by far the best. I'm convinced that Madea could even straighten out the Middle East!

This movie kept me laughing throughout the whole thing. It has a great story line. I would definitely purchase this again in a heartbeat! It has some sad parts about an abusive relationship. But it is mostly really funny, I was laughing so hard I was crying through some parts!

Southern Family Values At Their BestReview created: 10/05/07

Southern family values show their value in this wonderful movie by Tyler Perry. Tyler demonstrates what makes southern families so tight. Madea demonstrates tough love on family members as well as a foster child. The intricate lives that the entire family leads all come to light during the trials of life. Lisa is having to deal with an abusive fiance. Vanessa deals with past abuse as she embarks on a new relationship with Frankie. Madea helps each family member with their problems while she sets up a family reunion. The movie has break out performances from a talented crowd of young African American actors all while being anchored by performances from icons such as Lynn Whitfield, Maya Angelou and Cicely Tyson. This is one movie that crosses racial, ethnic and socio-economic lines. If only we had more Madeas. Oops, strike that. One Madea is enough for anyone.

THis is a fantastic movie. Well written, you can't walk out of the room. Tyler Perry knows how to tell a poignant story and spice it with hilarity to keep you from being bogged down in the drama. Absolutely beautifully done, his music (self-written) carries you through the preciousness of a well told love story. Madea keeps you in stitches with her "Big Mama" style wisdom. They should show this movie in every public classroom in Atlanta as an example of what a gifted black man can become. Applause, applause. (though there is some language, it is not vulgar-just the two biblical cuss words). I loved it and think that Tyler Perry is the most gifted comedian of the 21st century.

I won this auction and paid for the item through PayPal immediately. I never received the item. I submitted a dispute with PayPal and they found in my favor, but could not retrieve any funds due to the sellers account. I will NEVER EVER purchase anything on EBAY again. I thought that using PayPal was a secure way for paying for purchases...clearly I WAS WRONG:(

Madea's Family ReunionA stellar cast with Madea at the helm doing her thing with the flare and style only Tyler Perry can create. Cicely Tyson is incredible as one of the family matriarchs along side Maya Angelo. Blair Underwood was very impressive as the abusive fiancee in need of a crash course in how not to treat a woman as only Madea can teach. Tons of laughter but also many lessons we all need to learn about family and what is most important; love.

Tyler Perry at his best! Madea is the comic relief in a poignant story of one family's life. Culminating in a family reunion with unforgettable performances by Miss Cicely Tyson and Poet Lauriette Maya Anglou. Just enough combination of laughter and drama. A must see!
