why would being white matter at all, for any movie?
its not like its done is some secret code that only certain races can understand...

I'm white and I loved this movie. I have seen more Tyler Perry movies and have liked all of them. I love the humor of Madea and the drama from the actual stories have been good. Plus the Christian overtones are always there. I think these movies have been hyped into something they aren't. Now is the time to get off of this black/white kick. These movies cross that line.
Well I'm a little white, southern girl. I think it's the southern part of me that makes me like it so well. I totally have the same "A man hurts me I'm hurting him back" and "children needs discipline that includes spanking" mentality as Madea.
shareIf blacks have been watching white movies for decades with no problem then why can't whites look at black movies?
shareI flipped by TBS and saw the last 12 minutes of this last night. I'm pretty sure that no one of any race, religion, sexual orientation or species should be watching this.
shareIf you only watch movies with your race in it then that is sad. With your reasoning in that case black people would have very few movies to watch. Asians, nothing but karate movies.
sharejust saying that tyler perry seems to specialize in movies geared heavily towards black people. yes i could watch them, but what would be the point? btw the way there are plenty of movies asians can watch, you think only unites states makes movies?
shareSo by your rule American Asians have to watch movies from Asia? I'm sure this movie wasn't geared towards Blacks in Africa.
I'd catch a grenade for ya, throw my hand on a blade for ya

i don't know, i never watched it.
shareWhat a strange question!
Do you suppose anyone ever asked that about "Cabin in the Sky" (1943), "A Raisin in the Sun" (1961), or "The Color Purple" (1985)?
Do you have to be Italian to watch "The Godfather" (1972)?
Jewish to watch "Fiddler on the Roof" (1971)?
Gay to watch "The Birdcage" (1996)?
British to watch "Georgy Girl" (1966)?
Russian to watch "Doctor Zhivago" (1965)?
A New Yorker to watch "Manhattan" (1979)?
Southern to watch "Steel Magnolias" (1989)?
White to watch almost everything Hollywood produced in the early to mid 20th Century?
Again, what a strange question!
Do you have to be green to watch "Shrek" or "The Incredible Hulk?"
shareI'm white and love this movie and all of Perry's other ones too. Wish I had a Madea in the family when my daughter was growing up. My favorite one has to do with 'Grit ball'. Love it!
shareThis one question is an OUTSTANDING example of ignorance and,and how it is used to undermine, even the most positive messages. I guess because the movie has more than 5 black faces, has an OUTSTANDING GOSPEL SCENE,it should be DENOTED to intolerable genre of a "BLACK" movie. Black people ARE NOT from a different planet, but apart of our global community, and make up a part of our global family. Their experiences,lives,lessons, should be lessons for us all,............as HUMAN-BEINGS.
I am hoping this ignorance dies out in the next 80 years,......so my grandchildren can live in a much better world.
Humans are humans, not separate races. Black and white are (really subjective) skin colours not races.
And should all black people watch Tyler Perry's movies? No, and many wouldn't because he is not considered a great filmmaker by many critics or movie goers. I mean no disrespect to Tyler Perry, though.
If you are sick of the ''I love Jesus 100% signature'', copy and paste this into your profile!
