Diary of a Mad Black Woman

I must say that I've been following Tyler Perry's career for years now and he's finally brought his story to 1500 movie theaters for everyone to get a glimpse of his beloved character Madea. For those who have never heard of him or the infamous Madea, you'll have your turn today.

Kimberly Elise's role was presented with such a regal, dignified demeanor. Although she was distraught and destitute, she still kept up her appearances of having and keeping it together, making way for a positive new life while finding herself and new love.

Steve Harris's role made it easy for you to harbor hatred towards him. Tyler Perry couldn't have picked a better actor to portray such a wicked character. What I also loved is that you eventually grew a tolerance and understanding of his role as well and learned to forgive him, then yourself, as Ms. Elise's role learned to do.

If you'd like to catch up on Tyler Perry's character Madea, please purchase the plays that are provided via DVD and VHS. All of them are a definite treat. It will definitely help you to understand the phenomenon!

What a perfect way to spend a Sunday morning. I must admit that the movie's opening scenes had me wondering if I'd come to the wrong movie, but by the movie's end I was in tears. This movie was simply written and the emotional overtones were brilliant. Kimberly Elise is Hollywood royalty. Her acting was so powerful and next to Shemar Moore I enjoyed the chemistry (It was awkward for me at first, but they worked it..) Steve Harris stretched out in this role. We've grown accustomed to seeing him as the Lawyer in the Practice. I don't think I'll ever look at him the same again after this movie. Excellent work. For anyone who has ever had their hearts ripped apart by love should see this movie.

I laughed, I cried, I enjoyed. Tyler Perry is brilliant.

I saw the movie on opening day and I have seen all of Tyler Perrys' plays and I think he is awesome. The movie was great. I thought I would be disappointed but i was not. I pray Tyler Perry continues to do well in everything he does. The actors and actresses did well in the parts that they portrayed. I enjoyed Shemar Moore in the movie and it was good to see a veteran, Cicely Tyson. Tyler Perry is a great asset to the African American communities all over. He is truly a blessing and I want to offer my congratulations to him and all the talented people that he works with . -Barbara Williams- Thank you. To all who have not seen the movie yet, please go and see it.

My husband and I went to see "Diary of a mad black woman" today. The clerk said he had made a mistake and gave us one ticket for "Diary of a mad black woman" and one ticket for "Constantine". I remember this tactic was tried on other movies to keep down the box office receipts. Has this happened to anyone else? I went to the Regal Entertainment group theater "Cielo Vista 18" on March 7 at 2:35 pm. The movie was fantastic. I loved the movie and will buy the DVD so that I can watch it over and over again. I loved the depiction of real love between black American men and women that seems to be lacking in most movies of today.

All I have to say is that, despite all the negative 'reviews', I loved it, as did everyone else that filled the theater. I laughed, cried and was angry, all simultaneously. Anytime I can show that much emotion during one film, I'm impressed (and I'm not, too often, impressed). I'm not all that keen on the plays, but, to me, the movie was excellent. Not even the critics have soured my views on the film. I'd go see it again. Tyler Perry's characters were hilarious! And the 'find yourself' theme was apparent, which was good, because I hate to watch a movie through to the end and still have to 'guess the plot.' Overall, I give it a few thumbs up!!!
