I predict a 48%.
"Although Tyler Perry's only a producer and some gags are surprisingly inspired albeit a little silly at times, Tina Gordon Chism's writing and directing debut Peeples is a well-intended yet uneven and not reallt that funny comedy/drama/romance that will only appeal to not only African Americans and Tyler Perry fans, but also to fans of Meet the Parents (which this film reminds us of), a film we'd be watching instead."
I think the movie's tomatometer will be like a 15-25%
"Tyler Perry returns yet again at another attempt at comedy, but again, fails miserably with terrible jokes and bad acting."
Actually, I think the movie looks pretty similar to Meet the Parents, but I think Craig Robinson and David Alan Grier are gifted comics and this could be a funny movie.
I really don't give a crap about whether they're black or white--dumb is dumb and good is good. And to hold it against them that the movie looks like another movie...watch movies much? Every story is derivative of another movie. No more is this painfully obvious than in the new R.I.P.D. with Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges. It is almost a page-for-page rip off of MIB. Jeff Bridges is the Tommy Lee Jones and Ryan Reynolds is the white Will Smith. They chase after "masquerading" dead people who threaten the world, ummm...
I don't know, I actually have some hope for this one because David Alan Grier who I thought was brilliant in Living Color back in the day. He's a good stand up comic and dramatic actor (played in Law & Order SVU). I'm not ruling this one out, just yet.
yh, its kind of sad. Its just, blacks dont get a lot of movies, and when they do, they arent...great. Some are, but just..hmm. Not a lot of variety when it comes to African American movies. It hurts me to say, but its true. When a black director finally starts to get a good imagination, then you can talk to me. I will def see it.
Yeah I am sure this will bring in all sorts of racial trolls. I am surprised it's not flooded with them already. Actually I am very surprised. Only time will tell. We will all need to wait till May 10th. Hopefully they will be too busy trolling Iron Man 3 and Fast and Furious 6.
You shouldn't be surprised because nobody gives a shit about this movie. So they probably won't see this thread. There goes your racist clusteruck thread.
Ahh shit. This nigga right here. You be the nigga's secret nigga. I know you nigga. It's all good son. I know you finna be one the first niggas be see this shit. For reals. Hells yeah that's what I am talking about. Word.
