Tyler Perry is Madea and the Madea series creator genius. Madea is a "post-menopausal" woman of color who is a hilarious straight shooter always telling it like it is, complete with physical demonstrations that are filled with antics. Though I am now a Perry and Madea fan, this one is a filmed theater performance that winds up being an one stage Christian hymn singing revival. That turned me way off. So did the fact that Perry used many of the same punch lines from Madea's family Reunion in this far less well performed filmed stage performance. I recommend Madea's Family Reunion way above this one. Though the product description says Madea Goes to Jail comes AFTER Madea's Family Reunion, in Madea Goes to Jail, Tyler Perry announces his intention to create Madea's Family Reunion. I don't know for certain which came first. But I do know which one is best and it's not this one. Again, the long Christian hymn singing revival style at the end ruins this film. It makes the film a Christian religion ONLY one and therefore losing Tyler Perry's gift for being diversified and inclusive.Read full review
For the dvd on Madea goes to jail: I actually enjoyed it! Some of the music was moving, and some a bit loud & lengthy, but over-all, I'm happy with my purchase. I used to watch Flip Wilson and his secondary character; Geraldine! A few other actors both male and female, dressing in drag for comedy routines were also my fav's. thanx again, Juanita
I absolutely love Madea. I am a 53 year old white woman who grew up in church that was 1/2 and 1/2 black and white people, (Southeast Texas, when this practice was not common. There is so much in the Madea plays and movies that is so real which is my favorite kind of comedy. He artfully takes the issues that tear families apart like; domestic violence, drugs, selfishness, ambition, cheating, etc. puts some of the most hilarious comedy to it and introduces the only answer that can hold families togerther which is God. Not a God that is a Santa Claus but the real thing. Answers that are hard, self sacrificing, long suffering.... If you read the bible you would recognize the fruit of the spirit. You will love so hard it hurts and then cry because you know someone that is going through the seriour plot that parallels the comedy. I have seen the movie and now the play and I must say that for me they are both great. I love Tyler Perry's work and look forward to a new movie.Read full review
tyler perry is as always excellent as madea .the two young male actors are buff and definitely displayed as eye candy for the ladies and well worth a few rewinds.the movie, however was a bit preachy for my taste. i don't like gospel music so i fast forwarded through all the songs but the one the husband sang to his wife.if you like gospel music you will probably thoroughly enjoy this movie,because that's the only thing i didn't like, otherwise still very funny.i already watched it twice and would likely watch it again.
