District Attorney Brian waits at a high-end restaurant with his ex-wife, Debrah, and son, BJ. Brian inquires why their daughter, Tiffany, chose this restaurant instead of something more affordable, like Red Lobster. Since Debrah has a wealthy husband, she will never eat at establishments like that again. Also, she will ensure her husband, Dennis, will provide her children with a life that Brian never could. He believes this is unfair because he cared for their children while she battled addiction (FTC Affiliate Disclaimer). Brian never used her problems to poison them against Debrah.
Amongst the discord, Tiffany enters with her boyfriend, Zavier. She and Zavier have been dating for over a year, and they have since gotten engaged. Brian believes Zavier should ask for his permission, but Zavier says no. Brian is flabbergasted by Zavier’s flippant attitude, tear-drop tattoo, rap career, and hairstyle. And to add to Brian’s stress, Tiffany says she and Zavier want to get married in two weeks. Brian is speechless.
Tiffany calls a family meeting at Madea’s home. Madea wonders why Tiffany wants to get married so fast. They question whether Tiffany is pregnant. However, they drop that train of thought because youngsters today don’t marry because of pregnancy. Joe states that all marriage is stupid and laughs at the couple’s impending doom. Debrah, Tiffany, and Zavier enter, and Zavier refuses to introduce himself. The family is appalled until Tiffany makes a declaration. She and Zavier will wed in the Bahamas. The family doesn’t believe they can afford it. Cora thinks they can pool their money together and get one room, but the family rejects that suggestion. Then, Debrah says Dennis will cover it. However, she states that the father of the bride should do that. Joe sees Brian about to speak and tells Brian to shut up. Brian states he will pay for the wedding and for everyone to attend. The family celebrates, but Madea can’t shake the feeling that something is wrong. And she will get to the bottom of it with a slap, a punch, and a gunshot.
This film is precisely what you would expect from Tyler Perry. It places your favorite characters, Madea, Bam, Mr. Brown, and Joe, in different environments to add laughs and hijinks. Fans will laugh as Madea sweats at the passport office or Brown confronts a water slide. By moving them out of Atlanta, viewers discover that they don’t change. They get louder, prouder, and wilder. It’s only funny because it’s not your family. You will look forward to the family scenes but not the drama. Of course, this movie has a lesson about tolerance, prejudice, acceptance, and true love. It takes up the last 15 minutes but isn’t a dominant theme. This film offers a good chuckle and could become a guilty pleasure for some. Otherwise, it’s nothing spectacular.
