Another Tyler Perry Studio and Lionsgate production . . . the last one was Tyler Perry's "Good Deeds" . . .
I was not fond of "Good Deeds" nor was I fond of "Madea's Witness Protection."
Tyler Perry is trying to be "all things to all people," and it is not working for me.
Tyler Perry should either stick to the classic Madea and teach us another lesson about overcoming obstacles or he should stick with his non-Madea storyline like a "Family that Preys." I loved Tyler Perry's A Family that Preys. I saw it at least twice.
Madea's Witness protection was a way to introduce a more "refined" Madea into mainstream society. Tyler Perry also took a more active role as two main characters. One as Madea, and the other as Brian the district attorney overseeing the case.
If you make it to the movie theater early, then you will see a movie trailer/preview for "Alex Cross" movie which features Tyler Perry in another mainstream film. He seems to be accepting more roles in front of the cameras without the cameras being his own film.
Tyler Perry is definitely shaking things up. I actually am curious how everything is going to pan out in the future. I personally think that if something was not broke; why try to fix it? Some people love Madea, and some people hate Madea. If he has enough people who love Madea to keep his money flowing - why worry about the other people?
On a separate note, how can folks be in witness protection from the mob, and the mob never really does anything dramatic the whole movie?????
Overall, I got more entertainment out of going to see the last hour of "Ted!" Sorry Tyler Perry! Love you, but when no one was talking about this Madea movie on Facebook, I knew that it must have been a slight bust.
Please be true to yourself! Stay classic!
