Review of The Family That Preys

you know, i sometimes wonder if Tyler Perry doesn't have his elementary school aged nieces and nephews turning out these scripts for him. the script is boring and flat, with no real rises or falls. nothing interesting or exciting ever happens, unless of course you count all those laughable parts that made no sense at all. there are two other things that compliment the awful story: the misguided accents (the "white boy's" southern accent is almost never present, and the mother's likes to take frequent breaks) and the really dramatic overacting that makes you wonder if you didn't accidentally sit on the remote and switch over to some lame daytime soap opera.

if you enjoy absurdity and want to watch an incredibly stupid movie for laugh out loud purposes only, i suggest this. otherwise, don't waste your time.
