Kitty Ebert reviews: Madea Goes To Jail
By now most of you have formed an opinion on Tyler Perry and his movies. I had the pleasure of going to see Madea Goes To Jail last weekend and was thoroughly entertained. I laughed like it was nobodies business.
TP makes movies for Christians and anyone else who believes in the most high. MDGTJ was in my opinion the best out of all of TP’s plays that transitioned to film.
Unlike most movie reviews; I am not going to go over this one with a fine tooth comb. I will say that for the 160 minutes that I sat in the theater I escaped from life. In TP’s world there is no cursing, and people believe in forgiveness. Also in his movies, people live by a moral code, and believe in the family unit. If a person is so jaded and against those things that happen in TP’s fantasy world then you will not enjoy his movies.
I give this movie an A-

I liked this movie too… sometimes I have a hard time with TP’s movies but this one wasn’t that bad….
he writes well sometimes I just think that Madea is a lil over the top, but I guess that’s why we love her!
