Not Another Church Movie

When I sat down to watch the 2024 comedy "Not Another Church Movie", I must admit that I wasn't really harboring much of any grand expectations. The premise of the movie just didn't really prove all that interesting, and the fact that the movie had Mickey Rourke on the cast list as the Devil and Jamie Foxx as God, well that didn't exactly entice my in the least bit.

Writer and director Johnny Mack swung and missed. The storyline in this movie was devoid of funny situations, and I didn't even laugh a single time throughout the course of the 90 minutes that the movie ran for.

The acting performances in the movie were fair, though the actors and actresses had very little to work with. It was a bit of a surprise to see Vivica A. Fox in a movie such as this. It was painful to watch Jamie Foxx stumbling about on the screen in the role of God. And Mickey Rourke, well he just stood around and melted a bit more.

If you enjoy comedy spoof movies, then your money and time is better spent elsewhere, because "Not Another Church Movie" was a pretty weak movie. And it was quite a struggle to sit through 90 minutes of this ordeal. This 2024 movie from writer and director Johnny Mack was a parody and spoof of the numerous Tyler Perry movies.

And believe me when I say that I am never returning to watch this movie a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend to fans of the comedy genre.

My rating of "Not Another Church Movie" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

I just don't know what to say. It's just.....so bad! Some of the actors sounded like they were reading. I definitely understood what it was SUPPOSED to be, but, it wasn't giving at all. I went to sleep the first night I tried to watch, and struggled through, the next. When it came out, and it was for rent, something told me to just wait.... I'm glad I did. I tried my best to support, and if you are looking for something to just pass the time while you clean, or, for some background noise, this is the movie for you. I hope everyone who participated, were paid well, because i literally watched this movie with a straight face.

There was nonstoryline & the acrots wasted their time. The move is completely rushed. For someone who is trying ti dig at Tyler Perry, the movie was terrible. Who is rich like that who can make a movie about this BS?! Like make it make sense.

What a nerve to have Jamie Foxx (like did you do someone a favor to do this?), Tisha Campbell (now you know better!), & Mickey Rourke?? In this rushed and corny satire. I would rather be tortured with a toothbrush.

I honest think it was just terrible & when you have attention issues like this is it! This could have very well have been kept in the chamber.

I've seen Founder's Day. I've seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3. I've seen Mea Culpa. I've even seen Thankskilling 3. All of those movies are masterpieces of cinema compared to the incoherent train wreck that is Not Another Church Movie. This movie is chock full of atrocious direction, editing, and writing in this 90 minute dumpster fire with nary a laugh to be had. Jamie Foxx clearly shot his scenes in a day, Mickey Rourke shot his horribly rendered green screen scenes in probably an hour, and everyone else in the movie just downright stinks. 45 minutes in, I literally had no idea what was going on with the characters and plot lines. It's just a series of random scenes, non-sequiters, and general nonsense. Even the worst Tyler Perry movie is better than this dreck. Hands down, the worst movie of the decade so far, and it's not even close. I have no idea how this made it to cinemas.

We all seen em, we may have even laughed because of the jokes in em...but the world has to realize, that the majority of the Madea movies are some of the worst things to happen to cinema since the old blacksploitation films of he 1960s and 1970s.

But thye are supposed to be comedy, so the irony i that its supposed to be ok when a movie is low brow, low quality, and just overall low class. That being said...This "church" movie, though occasionally funny at ties...paled in comparison to the Madea stuff.

But again, ti reiterate...they are basically the same. This film simply uses PURE parody to tell it like it is, and point out all the nonsense in Tyler Perry's films. And its not the first film to try to do so, because clearly there are tons of people out there that either never liked the films, liked them at one point but began to hate them, liked some of them but hated the rest, or whatever...

End of the day, we need parody when a big film series gets too big for its britches. This was maybe a 4/10 at best, which, though a low rating...is sill close to the average 5.5/10 rating for the BETTER Madea films. Lol Honestly dont get how Tyler Perry became so successful with selling his soul lol.
