Tyler Perry's For Colored Girls
I have to abmit the movie "For Colored Girls" was pretty good. I enjoyed the acting and writing outside of Woopie's character. It was not a full chick-flick as I was told. Only the male police officer had a positive male role in the movie. Felicia Rashad, Thandie Newton Anika Noni Rose were awesome in their roles!!! New York looked good too!
A good movie to see when its not crowded and people making comments aloud to get a laugh or something!

lmao. My father saw that tonight with his girlfriend and was telling me about it. Said it was basically the worst film he's ever seen. And I quote "a disgrace to niggas the world over". Other memorable quotes from the conversation were: "Tyler Perry should be publically executed on CNN for that garbage" "If white people saw that they'd think they were right all along and should have kept our asses enslaved". Of course that's all in jest but he really hated the film and honestly thinks the film makes black people look like a bunch of clowns. From the scenes he was telling me about it seems like a very terribly written film. Also one that has hilarious levels of man hating.

All so very true. The OP of this thread obviously doesn't know much about the original piece that was performed on broadway and won several awards. I personally know a woman who won a Tony for this play years ago on broadway. I've worked with her as well. Tyler made a mistake in thinking he could translate this onto the screen. Some plays basically should be left as plays and no more. This is an extremely difficult piece to bring to film. These women have zero identity on screen. Tyler should have known better and thats why all the major periodicals that review film have ripped his ass apart on this. The Hollywood Reporter review is scathing! Totally shreads him. But there are very good individual performances from Rashad and Thandie Newton. And thats only because these women are at the top of the profession. Both extremely talented. Their talent overcomes all the flaws of Perry's direction.
GET BACK MOTHERFUCKER YOU DON'T KNOW ME LIKE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
