7/10
A nice little movie with heart and laughs.

Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married" is something nice to watch with family/friends, etc. But it does fall short on some levels; like why is there a scene of conflict after another after another? Why didn't the director have the characters talk their problems realistically than yelling and screaming at each other? There's even some lip-syncing errors in some of the scenes, namely Angela, the drunken trouble maker who is a delight to watch. And Janet Jackson's performance was a little off but it is Jill Scott who has the best performance and does a really good job out of all of them. Some say that she didn't emote enough and to a certain extent, I agree. She can only do so much what the producers have laid out for her but I think she made a good performance.

I'm not surprised the movie was rated low on IMDb and that maybe because audiences were expecting more out of Tyler Perry (Granted, I was least satisfied at the end). Not one of Tyler Perry's best or worst, just "solid" in all fairness.
