His bit is getting a little old but I have to admit I do enjoy Tyler Perry's routine. As far as trailers go, if you know the deal you might be brought in by this clip. If not, you probably have no idea what the heck this is about. Not a good bit of advertising by my standards.

Tyler Perry comes out with a movie more often than I mow my yard. This one man movement is an undeniable talent and stands as proof that determination, hard work, and a grounded attitude will get you far...well, that and a gift for dramatics.

The trailer shows this to be squarely within his range. His dramatic family comedies handle heavy issues with a light but direct hand. Perry's work isn't my cup of tea, but I respect the man and his works. Many people love his products, its just not something that speaks to me.

Looking beyond the trailer, this film sports one of the best posters I've seen in a long time.
