Preview: Meet the Browns (2008)


Poster: D+

Review:

I'm sure in the context of the film, this poster has some significance. However, as an enticement to bring audiences to the theater, it is completely lacking. It's neither interesting, nor involving and unnecessarily simplistic.

Trailer: C

Review:

When you have that "not again" feeling, perhaps it's time to take a break. Tyler Perry is trying to become the most prolific producer/screenwriter in the history of cinema. With two or three films releasing every year, you wonder when he finds time to sleep. This one looks like a carbon copy of his other films, providing a slice-of-life experience.

Oscar Prospects:

Perry's yet to have a film figure at the Oscars, I'm doubtful that day will ever come.

Release Date:

March 21, 2008

Synopsis Review:

I have not seen this film.
