Reviews
|
Village Voice -
An agent of spiritual regeneration and showman, Perry's dramaturgy is as subtle as a Bible-thump, but until a logy last act that has Levy disguised as a faux-Frenchman, his instincts are on-target here.
|
|
Variety -
The interaction among opposites inspires an abundance of predictable race-based jokes, many of which have the saving grace of actually being funny.
|
|
The New York Times -
A comedy that's too late to the Ponzi-scheme party to be topical, and not outrageous enough to take advantage of its own setups.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Madea is starting to look a little tired.
|
|
The A.V. Club -
There aren't many laughs in this vaudevillian gambit, and fewer still in the fish-out-of-water comedy of Madea hosting a rich white family that's chiefly concerned with yoga, wi-fi, and their carb intakes. Still, Perry remains a true outsider artist-nobody makes movies like his. (And please don't try.)
