Editorial Review:
A single mom takes her family to georgia for the funeral of her father -- a man she never met. There her clan is introduced to the crass fun-loving brown family. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 07/01/2008 Starring: Angela Bassett Margaret Faison Run time: 101 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns is a sitcom taken to the nth level. Brenda (Angela Bassett) is a single mom struggling to raise her family in Chicago. When she receives a letter inviting her to attend her father's funeral, she's not sure how to feel: Brenda never knew the man and hadn't interacted with that part of her family. But when she loses her job, she decides that now's the time to shake things up. (And, as a friend suggests, there's always the chance her father left her a little money.) While the film's central character grew up with incredible hardships (a prostitute for a mother and a pimp for a father who didn't stick around), writer-director-actor Perry takes every opportunity to inject a little humor into the vignettes. It is not her fault that she is too gorgeous and regal to be believable in the role, but Bassett--a superb dramatic actress--is sorely miscast here in a role where her subtleties are lost in all the fuss. Meet the Browns isn't Perry's best piece of work, but the fast-paced action and raucous dialogue provide enough fun to make the film worthwhile. With his name prefacing each movie, Perry has developed a franchise that doesn't fail to deliver what his fans are accustomed to: some variation of a dysfunctional family comedy and the appearance of his most famous character Madea--a cranky grandmother played by Perry himself that manages to draw laughs, even when her inclusion sometimes is superfluous. --Jae-Ha Kim

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Terrible movie
Horribly miscast, some characters overacted, some (Rick Fox) cannot act and the ones who are VERY good actors (Angela Bassett) made him even WORSE...the movie is so all over the place with over/under acting it is ridiculously annoying...horrible attempts at comedy, boring, predictable plot, this movie was impossible to sit through after 40 minutes I had enough and turned it off. One of the worse movies I have ever TRIED to watch.
Rating:  - Colorblind Truths and a Big Heart
One of my pet peeves is hearing people contend that Tyler Perry makes "black films." Being off-pink myself, I've never met another "white" person who has even seen one of his works, and that's quite sad because his body of feature films, this one especially, speak with equal depth and grace to people of all colors. If a heart beats behind your chest, if you've ever loved someone, and if you have a sense of humor, you'd be hard pressed to find a better series of films than Mr. Perry's to move you ... Read More
Rating: - Meet the Browns
The storyline is quite relevant for our time. So young people need to understand that easy money is not also the best option however working hard to achieve will reap good reward.
