Critics Consensus: Tyler Perry's Acrimony might be of interest to hardcore Tyler Perry fans, but all other viewers are advised to make time for another Fatal Attraction screening instead.

It's all very entertaining and dumb, the posh settings pushing the drama further into the realm of escapist fantasy.
Despite all its Fatal Attraction-style trappings, Acrimony is a bloated drama at odds with itself and its characters. Who exactly are we supposed to root for here?
An attempt at "Fatal Attraction," but the clumsy writing and slow pace prove lethal.
What was Tyler Perry going for here?
The 20 or so minutes we get of Henson's rage are not enough to warrant the title or the ticket price.
Tyler Perry's Acrimony, presumably titled to set it apart from your acrimony or mine, will make you angry for wasting the talents of Taraji P. Hensen on a hack job unworthy of her talent talent and your money.
I didn't walk away feeling that I wasted my life, but I also would never see this again. Tyler Perry took half a step in the right direction, but it still wasn't good. At least he knows who his audience is.
Impressively misconceived and mishandled.
As much as Henson tries to her best, her performance can't overshadow the incompetence of Perry's script and direction.
In Acrimony, Tyler Perry works the female character up to those stereotypical roles, educating the audience on just how they are made. This is not enough to save the film from its own cliché and culturally damaging ending, however.
"Acrimony" is a study in frustrating episodic storytelling and the revolving stages of one's reaction to where it very slowly goes. Ultimately, by the end credits, the only acrimony left is from the bamboozled viewer.
Acrimony is presented with a typical filmmaking choice or an absurd one, it goes with the latter.
