When Madea, America’s favorite pistol-packing grandma, catches sixteen-year-old Jennifer and her two younger brothers looting her home, she decides to take matters into her own hands and delivers the young delinquents to the only relative they have: their aunt April.
I Can Do Bad All by Myself
A heavy-drinking nightclub singer who lives off of Raymond, her married boyfriend, April wants nothing to do with the kids. But her attitude begins to change when Sandino, a handsome Mexican immigrant looking for work, moves into April’s basement room. Making amends for his own troubled past, Sandino challenges April to open her heart. And April soon realizes she must make the biggest choice of her life: between her old ways with Raymond and the new possibilities of family, faith…and even true love.

The Good
There won’t be any gang shootouts at the theater.
The Bad
Tyler Perry films are generally amusing, fun for the family but can we get a different theme here?
Did I mention racism in my comment..I know I talked about this movie review being stereotypical and the only one having negative feedback on this site. But I really dont know where you get off at me denouncing racism at all..so NO I dont see the irony. I’m just saying how sad it is…never mentioned anyone being racist. NEXT…..
You are the one who brought up Blacks being better at everything than whites, not I.
So you are denouncing racism, with more racism? Seems like a little bit of irony there.
Thats sad that this is the only movie review where there is something negative and stereotypical in the comments. I dont know what “There won’t be any gang shootouts at the theater” is referring to, but in the US, gang bangers are of all ethnicities. After all these years some whites still have to put down blacks..or any other race for that matter, just to make themselves feel good about what they are lacking. But, it doesnt matter, it only makes blacks stronger, smarter, and more successful to have someone constantly hating. And thats why even though blacks are minority, the majority of them will be better at anything a white person does or tries to do.
