Temptation Reviews

This is just a good old-fashioned story. And Tyler Perry is radical in that he doesn't go for high-octane pyrotechnics to tell that story. The set-up in this seemed vaguely Woody Allen--probably the richly appointed work-place, good looking actors and the great-though-small apartment where the happy couple live. And the story is basically girl and boy forever and ever until....one of them realizes they're not newlyweds and where did all that passion go? Who hasn't been there? And who hasn't felt that overwhelming pull of desire for the wrong person which produces some kind of chemical which replaces your brain? I can't think of another movie-maker who is making movies based so convincingly on real life. I am definitely a fan.

Tyler....When are we really going to put together a love story with real substance, this movie was so predictable, I like Jurnee Smollett-Bell she is awesome, but lets focus on a real mind boggling how is this story gonna end, "I thought he was the one that did it" Wow! kinda love story

In "Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor", a story of a bored therapist who gets involved with one of her rich matchmaking firm clients, Tyler Perry wields drama like a broadsword. The plot was intricate, the characters grow on you and cling THICK on the viewer, and the conclusion was painstaking at the least. It short .. this screenplay is about a Woman who gets upset that her husband forgets her birthday, meets another guy who stalks her, then cheats on her husband who makes her feel dead when with him, and from there it goes downhill into the valley of the shadow of dry bones of predictability. When the end credits began to scroll, I had to drink water ... for I found myself choking and trying damn near not to break out in tears. This is Perry's BEST FILM ... 5 of 5 stars without question is the rating it deserves.

Seen the movie it is very good it,has a great point to it. Great actors. I thought Kim K did a good job acting,in this movie also

Excellent!! Great story and an eye opener for everyone who loves sex!! I loved this story..a bit sad towards the end but very engaging, sexy and good acting except for Kim Kardashian lol. I want to see this again! Brandy was fantastic..go Brandy!!!

The cast members are beautiful and sensuous. The theme of temptation is definitely real...given the divorce rate and number of unhappy marriages in the US it is certainly believable. I won't reveal the ending, but let's just acknowledge that Perry always has a moral of the story, which is never a happily ever after ending. The ending did have a twist, yet much of the movie is predictable and unfortunately imitates real life. Every couple should see before getting married simply because most can't figure this out until they're heading to divorce court.

Somewhat predictable (because of the title) yet I was intrigued to know how the movie ends (realistic). Jurnee sparkles throughout the movie and I was glad to see her return to big screen. Well, Kim portrays a character that resembles her personality so it was a no-brainer role for her. In theatres now.

This movie was poorly written, directed and acted. It was incredibly contived. And then it was just pathetically laughable. Tyler bombed. Simply put, the movie sucked on all levels.

The most predictable story line ever. The acting was pretty bad in this as well. About a dozen people walked out of the theater before it was over. It is just all around terrible.

An entertaining if tragic cautionary tale. Perry is brave to bring us such a wisdom tale in depraved times such as ours.

Just a mediocre and contrived romantic dramedy. I hope Peeples brings back Perry's new strength he built with For Colored Girls, Madea's Witness Protection, Good Deeds, and Alex Cross.

This has to be Tyler Perry's best film since I Can Do Bad All By Myself. This was a Very real and Powerful film about making mistakes in marriage. This film had so many twists and turns; it had a lot of emotional scenes and also Hilarious moments. Great job Mr. Perry

Though i haven't seen it, i am sure i will love it. He tells the truth of what life can deal us if we are not careful in our doings. The truth always hurts and scares a lot of people...no wonder many people are speaking against it.... we need movies that have moral reasoning like this and not just entertaining useless stuff all the time.

With no doubt, "Tempation" is the best from Tyler Perry that everybody got time for.

Not a bad plot because tempation can leave some serious consequences to deal with depending on how deep you let it go. The message made it clear to me that sometimes the grass isn't always greener on the other side. He knew what he wanted and it became quite a challenge for him to go after a young southern country girl who fell into his web of deception. Worh seeing on a date night for those in relationships that need a little pick me up! C+

While this movie was predictable plot wise, the emotions that the messages elicit are far more complicated that the overall story. There is a lot of grey area in which one may feel that they could see both sides of the story. By watching the main actress one can sympathize with her choices and really connect with her because many individuals crave affection and spontaneity. However one can also see that she is letting go of something so precious and that she and her husband could have added spice to their relationship instead of having an affair. This movie also brings into the question of fate and what was meant to be and what was not meant to be (if you believe in fate that is). This movie successfully captures the complexity of a relationship but also emphasizes the simplicity of love. Great movie. Makes you think.

It is not as good as my fellow Christians say it is and it is and not as bad as non Christians say that it is. I really got into this movie because I know what it is like to be cheated on. And yes there are bad things that come with bad behavior. The first thing I went to get was an AIDS test. For the record, I am HIV negative. On the other hand, I really think that Tyler Perry is a poor director and does need to get better writing skills. Worst part of the movie is where hubby breaks the pencil because he is mad. Give me a break! I enjoyed this movie...I just wish Tyler thought I was a little smarter than it made me feel watching it.

I really enjoyed this movie. Anyone who is thinking about cheating on their spouse or is will think again after watching this.

Hard to follow, thinly scripted, but surprisingly well acted (maybe I'm alone). Temptation was so depressing it ruined my evening. Ain't got time fadat.

The cast was awesome, the storyline was interesting, but the ending SUCKED
