After making a serious mature film, For Colored Girls, Tyler Perry has decided to return to what he loves most, cross dressing, slapstick, and all the crazy drama that the Madea series is known for.
I find it kinda funny that he has to put his name in the title, as the movie itself isn't a movie where I think you would want to have your name there, but Tyler Perry's a rich man, so I guess it doesn't matter.
Within the first ten minutes of Medea's Big Happy Family, a doctor is groped, Madea is handed a cancer death sentence and Mr. Brown threatens to beat up a women. If your new to the Madea series, don't be surprised, the first two films where like that to.
Along with other drama, we have a teen who just got out of prison, a family trying to raise two disrespectful chriden. Point is, a lot of drama goes down in this film. Due to this, Medea feels like a episode series on TV at parts, switching from character to character. It kinda works in a way, but other times you kinda are getting into that character but the film switches to another character making you lose interest.
Due to Tyler Perry's stage experience, some parts of the film have that theater feel to them, and be prepared for the characters to be screaming at the top of their lungs for your attention. Also, the film seems to push the idea that you can use violence to solve your problems, which I don't think really works in real life. But uh, to each their own.
All right, so in the end, I wouldn't recommend this film, unless your already a fan of Tyler Perry's Crossdressing, slapstick violence, or odd insane drama.
