A Fall from Grace

A mortgage gets taken out, 1st payment is 30 days past due only 42 days after "closing" on said morgage, and banker says make a payment now to avoid foreclosure??? What stupid fresh he!! kind of foolishness is this? It took 14 months for my house to be foreclosed after making late payments for 6 months (waiting to get refinancing approval after the 2008 crash when my employer went bankrupt) Obviously, Mr. Perry hasn't had a mortgage. Don't know why I'm still watching this dreck. I had to pause the movie and walk outside for a smoke. Good God almighty. I'm determined to see the crazy ending people are talking about. I need a good laugh. I'm gonna need to watch The Waterboy after this mess just to recover a few brain cells.

I usually enjoy Tyler Perry films but this is whack. The basement scenes at the end threw me over the edge. You can't go from semi-realism to totally unrealistic. It had potential.

There's not really much to say other than that it was predictable from the moment Phylicia Rashad made her appearance. Feels like I've seen her portray the same type of roles more often than not (yawn). Writing was very subpar as was Bresha Webbs acting. 2 hrs wasted.

This is basically if an intern at the hallmark channel was forced to write a law and order episode... In 5 days.

I only read the first page of reviews, which all portray this movie as really bad, and to be honest those people need to get a life. I won't say it's the greatest movie ever, I wouldn't go to the theater to watch it, but it would be good enough for a tv-movie. The story is entertaining, there are some intriguing questions that keep a certain level of suspense, the acting isn't bad (some actors are just slightly better than others), but overal it's a watchable movie. I would have put the twist at the end a little bit earlier in the movie and developped that better, just to make it more thrilling and attractive, that's all. The story might have been a bit predictable but it's really not as bad as some reviews made it look like. Just give it a try.
