I avoid spoilers in my reviews, but it's almost impossible to do this without saying why I appreciated the movie. So don't read anything in blue because it's all SPOILERS. But before I do that, let's get this out of the way. Tyler Perry pretty much sticks to the same formula and plot for every movie. Someone is either molested, raped or attacked (sometimes 2 out of 3 or all three), there's a drug user, someone is thinking of cheating or did cheat, someone is pretty loud and obnoxious telling jokes and there will be model-pretty/handsome people included who show skin. This movie was no different. So if you're mad at this film because it fit this formula, you should've stopped watching Tyler Perry movies and plays long ago.
I wanted to see the film because I'm a long-time supporter of Jurnee Smollett-Bell (favorite film of hers is "Great Debaters" but I liked her in lighter films like "Roll Bounce" and still remember her sitcom with the rest of her siblings). I also think Lance Gross is absolutely gorgeous, enjoyed him on "House of Payne" and admired him for keeping his word to his fans. I had zip zero interest in Kim Kardashian's role in the film but I wasn't mad she was in the film either. I just didn't care.
The previews of the film leave no room for wondering what the plot is about. The wife Judith (Smollett-Bell) feels left out and isn't getting enough attention from her husband Brice (Gross). Meanwhile a rich start-up technology client Harley (Robbie Jones) comes along and makes her wonder if the grass is greener on the other side. Meanwhile a new retail employee Melinda (Brandy Norwood) is hired at Brice's pharmacy and has a checkered past. Whatever you think her checkered past is will probably be true. Now watch these folks mingle.
