The casing was great . The acting was nothing but marvelous . So I was a bit suspicious being a Perry film . Although , you have definitely got me back Mr. Perry . Sherri showed out for sure . I'm a grown 46 year old man from Flint , MI ( King Hood / Taylor St - Dayton Ave ) and was in tears 😭. Thanks for a great movie that all of us can appreciate and relate to . I'm assuming Ma. Henson got paid correctly because she deserves it. I've seen far less actors get awards Sherri needs supporting award . Mr. Perry you did that. All the naysayers should give props where they belong ( Spike Lee ) !!!!

Tyler Perry's Straw is an emotional knockout. It's a raw, honest look at how people carry silent pain until something small becomes the breaking point. Taraji P. Henson is phenomenal as always-her performance is layered and deeply moving. Sherri Shepherd is the real surprise here. She is absolutely amazing, bringing heart and depth that lingers long after the credits roll. This film reminds us that everyone's struggle looks different, and sometimes it only takes one moment to unravel it all. It has the heart and weight of an early 2000s classic. The only thing that keeps it from fully landing in that space is the cinematography. While it gets the job done, it doesn't elevate the story the way it could. Tyler has worked with this DP before, and I'd really like to see a stronger visual approach next time to match the caliber of the performances and script. Still, Straw is one of Perry's most honest and powerful films to date.

WOW. I've never had a movie genuinely almost make me cry. At the beginning I felt the main characters emotions we it they eer my own and sympathized with her. The twist at the end was something I that genuinely had my jaw DROP and feel as if I was about to start crying. The only thing preventing me from giving it a 10 star is the ending, despite it being a confusing at first it's something I eventually understood. This is the perfect "Monsters aren't born, they're made." Type of movie that kept me hooked from beginning to end. Another banger my Tyler Perry, I love movies like this. If you like suspense based movies revolving around the "bad guy," you'll ADORE this.

Taraji's acting is superb - as it always is - but this movie seems beneath her. Most of the movie - except for the reveal at the end - felt like one of those Dhar Mann films on Facebook.

The supporting characters were terrible, the plot was unbelievable, and it felt like a cheap attempt at a difficult and nuanced topic. I could not believe the lack of understanding the script had for law enforcement processes.

I have not seen much of Tyler Perry's recent movies, but if this is the level of his films these days, then that is truly disappointing and someone needs to save Taraji from his projects.

Some will not understand or relate. The acting was great. Ms. Henson did what she was asked to do. I applaud her. She played with the knowledge of a true artist. Tyler Perry got the right person for his vision. I've been watching her make the rounds on different talk shows and platforms to promote this movie, but I had no idea I would enjoy it as much as I did. I highly recommend this movie. It is fantastic. I can't wait to see what my family and others think of her performance. Tariji made every dime she's being paid for this one. I've been watching her for a long time, she knows her craft.

Congratulations.
