I went to see Medea with one of my friends, when we arrived the theater was empty expect for couple people. Madea's Witness Protection story centers around Eugene's family who ratted on their company to SCC. Eugene then has to go into witness protection which is offered by Madea, because Madea lives in hood and is very protective. Eugene then has to get back all money non profit organizations lost while investing in his companies ponzi scheme. Some of jokes in the film were hilarious like when the old man in film was being a pervert. Also when old woman says she heard "negro spirituals" coming from house. My friend was laughing like hell throughout movie because he was high out of his mind but for many that scene was uncomfortable. Therefore if your gonna watch this get in bubbly mood, or smoke some herbs.

It's of course OK for a comedy to have a very simplistic story in it but its unforgivable when you just don't have a good comedy writer. Really, what's the point of watching a comedy when it just isn't being all that funny? I just couldn't believe how badly written some of the comedy in this movie was. Most of the moments or pieces of dialog will get absolutely no laughs out of you, no matter how desperate the movie gets at times. The movie truly goes overboard in an attempt to still make you laugh, or at other times it's simply just going on and on. The director just didn't knew when to say cut at times, probably also because the director, Tyler Perry, himself is being on the screen a lot as well, as a whole bunch of different characters. But he clearly just ain't no Eddie Murphy! The different story lines are either poorly connected or just connected in such an unrealistic way that it becomes ridicules. The movie even drops some story lines after a while and then picks them up again 30 minutes later, or sometimes it doesn't at all. It does the same with some of its characters. It all lets this movie feel like a real messy one at times and you are wondering multiple times throughout it what it exactly is that you are watching here. The main premise of the movie is already a real ridicules and unlikely one to begin with. But the sad thing about it is that it's also absolutely going nowhere with it. At times I though that the movie was perhaps going to be one with some 'messages' it and the two different families would start to learn from each other and slowly but steadily grow closer to each other as well. But none of that is the case in this movie. It just mostly relies on racial stereotypes and other prejudices that just aren't being all that clever or original to watch and therefore also not all that funny. And really, I love Eugene Levy but I just think he is better when he's not playing the lead role. He's just far better and more fun to watch in supporting roles, though it perhaps is not fair to say that purely based on his role in this movie of course. He is given some incredibly weak material to work with and the movie perhaps was at times relying far too much on his delivery. But not even a comical talent like Levy could turn some of the moments and pieces of dialog into something funny. And how are we supposed to believe he's married to Denise Richards? There is some weird casting going on in this movie but Tyler Perry foremost should not had cast himself playing 3 different characters. He just isn't a talented enough comic, so far too scenes involving him fall totally flat. A failed attempt at a comedy. 4/10 http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

I absolutely loved this movie. Tyler Perry is brilliant and talented. I grew up in the south and have met many Madea's and can relate so well to this character. Tyler is right on the money portraying this southern black lady. This movie had me and my family in stitches. From my 8 year old son, to my 74 year old mother. It's the perfect family movie. I loved it! Tyler Perry has outdone himself with this movie. I do believe this is my favorite Madea movie so far. Keep them coming, Tyler and I'll continue to watch!! We need more movies that all the family can watch and get something out of, and this one is it. This is definitely the summer must see movie. Everyone in my house is still talking about how good it was and quoting some of Madea's lines. Bring us some more good movies.

This is quite possibly the best Madea movie to date. Madea has a lot more screen time, making the movie better and funnier. There's hardly any random subplot drama at all. It's a flat-out comedy starring Madea and Eugene Levy. The jokes are hilarious and keep coming. Levy plays George Needleman, a dorky businessman marked for death by a crime family after his company goes bankrupt and he is framed for money laundering. Brian Simmons takes the case and suggests the Needeleman family stay at Madea's house. (That's when all heck breaks loose as she tries to teach them love and respect) Will George and Madea be able to find the money and give it back to the charities? I highly recommend MADEA'S WITNESS PROTECTION!!!

This movie had a lot of hilarious scenes but there was way to much sexual reference and language too be a family movie. This movie is not for kids! Although we can expect crude behavior out of these movies, it still had way to much crudeness. I don't really know what Tyler Perry was doing when he wrote this, but this is not something that I'm used to seeing from him. Tyler Perry,? What is with all the sexual references man? I was expecting something my kids could go watch with me. Now I'm afraid of bringing my kids to another one of Madea's movies. I don't think I will by the DVD but I think the movie needed to be a little more family friendly/Kid Friendly like you other ones.

Tyler, what are you becoming or is this the real you? My family was so excited for the release that we went to the midnight showing. There are some really funny scenes, but there is far too much foul language and sexual innuendos for the family. There are a few issues with the casting and or writing. For one Levy is a superb actor and while he did a good job with what was written the story lined and supporting actors did not add up. Will not buy the DVD. There are others flaws with the script such as the church's involvement in the Ponzi scheme, but I care not to go into it further. Not of the quality I would hope for from Tyler Perry.

Tyler perry's Madea is a very funny movie, I loved it but would not take my ten year old brother to see it had a lot of profanity and a talked some about "doing it" is how they referenced to sex and than they talked about butt sizes for about five minutes. But for fourteen year olds and up it is great to watch, I found myself crying I was laughing so hard like I do in all the Madea movies, I just get use to it. I would love for you to see the movie but I would not say that this is a Family movie but it is a great comedy for those who like to laugh!! Also Madea talks about her stripping days when Joe says they would use a telephone poll for you because your so d**m fat and Madea uses hell over 100 times this movie could have been rated R but I rate this an A in comedy just what you get when you go to a Madea movie for movie USA I am Alex Adams thanks for reading!!!!
