Review of For Colored Girls (2010) by Rentcollector — 15 Jun 2012
I sat down on today (6/16/2012), two years after this movie has seen the silver screen, only to be pushed into the realm of Netflix. I immediately became infuriated at myself, angry at the idea that I did not myself make my way into the movie theater, to pay my hard earned dollar to review what I feel is one of the best productions Tyler has delivered to the world.
I have had the opportunity to sit and to read a few of the bad reviews. I find that some of the critics are a bit short-sighted. There are those who would make this out to be a "Tyler Perry" blunder.
There was even an implication that it brought all of "Tyler Perry's baggage" to it. This movie was inspiring, fresh, creative and moving. I happen to feel that it was a departure from the norm with Tyler and they way the script weaved each of the women's lives together flowed effortlessly.
It was not choppy and each of the scenes seemed to appropriately compliment each other. This was a black man's "Macbeth". At its core it was "Shakespearean" and I feel that it was a riveting, display of showmanship.
Forget the 22 year old immature rantings and the implications that Tyler has once again created a movie where actors and actresses "over-act". This was a fantastic learning experience for me as a man and it brought class to the Silver screen in a subtle way.
I give Mr.
