Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas - The Play (2011)

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

All I can say is that I am now sitting on pins and needles waiting for A Madea Christmas (2011) to be released on DVD. I love all Madea movies. One thing I don't understand is that it says A Madea Christmas (2011) does that mean it was released some place else first then in the US? So far I have watched all of her movies and can watch them time and time again. Tonight I just finished watching 2 of them that I have already seen before and they are still as funny as the first time I watched them and will watch them again too. So far I have watched Family Reunion, Witness Protection Program, Madea goes to jail and just to try it out Aunt Bam's it was pretty good really.

A Medea Christmas - The Play is amazing. It is very touching and has wonderful plot, actors, and meaning. It holds the true meaning of Christmas. Family, Friends, Giving, and Jesus! And of course, Medea! It is hilarious! Tyler Perry is amazing! You will laugh and laugh. It has beautiful music (some original songs by Tyler Perry), too. I wouldn't recommend this for small children because it contains crude humor, language, and sexual comments. It is perfect for people 13+.Warning: This is a stage play. It is not for everyone. Some people will like it, and some people will want the movies more. However, this is an amazing story.

I have been watching Tyler Perry Plays for as long as I can remember. Sometimes the plot is pretty simple but it pays out big in the end. And as always this one is a winner. Tyler Perry's Madea, Bam and the newest addition Hattie are such a riot that I could not stop laughing. the story is strong and keeps you wanting to what next is going to happen next. I am not going to give up any spoilers so don't look for none. It's been awhile that we have seen a play with the dept an emotion that this play brings and the music is top notch. the actors and actress are on point with this one. I highly recommend this play to everyone. And we all can use a good laugh a this time of the year.

I am surprised I am the first to write a review. I will keep this simple. A Madea Christmas Play is fantastic. The story, characters, music and mostly Madea will have you laughing out loud. Please enjoy this wonderful play during this holiday season. Mr. Tyler Perry is an amazing actor, writer, and director. I look forward to them making a movie out of this wonderful piece of art. The performers in this play really hit their characters portrayal like a hammer to a nail. Especially the woman who plays Hattie May. The musical numbers are eloquent, I just wish they had more Christmas songs then what they did. Mr. Perry's original music is wonderful, but I just would of liked to hear many more Christmas songs. I hope everyone is able to enjoy this film as much as I did! I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!
