I know, your thinking, T got married? When?? No cake!!!

Im talking about my main squeeze Tyler Perry's why did i get married.

first things first...

Cast :Tyler Perry, Sharon Leal, Janet Jackson, Malik Yoba, Jill Scot, Richard T. Jones, Tasha Smith, Michael Jai White, Denise Boutte, Keesha Pam, Lamman Rucker... 

Genre: Comedy, drama....

I thought it was a good one but then again my boy doesnt disappoint. ((okay...focus!!!))

It starts of with patricia (janet) explaining this journey she goes on with her friends and their spouses when they go on vacation to ask themselves "WHY they got married?". It's supposedly a chance for them to think through their year.. what they been through and how they dealt with it.

The couples are relatable in a way that you can see you being one of them or know many of your friends who fit the mold and as their stories unfold you begin siding with each one of them.. depending on who "YOU" portray in the story.

The introduction of  Trina to the little group setting ideally sets the story off as she is the "trump" stealing one of the men and from then on... the knives come out as they start learning secrets about each other... things they havent shared as couples but amongst their different friend groupings.

The movie really revolves around them trying to work from the point of the "secret" being revealed to their futures and really tasting how strong their relationships (marriages are).

If you love black movies without people killing each other.. then this is the movie for you.

Things of interest: the 80-20 rule.
  Apparently your woman will only give you about 80% of what you need. So sometimes when you looking around.. you might chance on a woman you think will give you more than what you getting (the 20%). Depending on your will power, if you walk out on your woman, coz the offer is soooo tempting, you will essentially be loosing out on the 80% so ya needs to ask yourself if its worth it.

Not many men see that.

Side note: not many women realize their worth so when the dumping happens, they take it out on themselves, forgetting that THEY were the 80.

    Must Tyler always act in his movies too.I think your man is selfish.
    Anyhowz,I dont like the thought that women are putting in the whole 80% and men 20 thats one of those conspiracy theories where people think women do men a favour by being in relationships with them.

    Oops!aint I supposed to be on women's side!

    it was a cool movie though i doubt i'd watch it thrice. i like tyler's movies. seems like i should be his pal too, maybe i'll be a prop....just maybe...

    duksey you didn't get the 80-20 rule, did you?

    It was mad funny..... That ghetto sista that was a hairdresser was just the shiznit...
    As for the 80-20 rule... I figure I should enjoy both if I ever get a hold of them. Only problem is I keep meeting a lot of 40%ers... And my adding skills being close to nil...

    I watched the movie during Easter and I loved it, especially that part about cleaning the closet on behalf of the others. Deadly.
