The Marriage Counselor (The Play)

So funny. Will have you laughing, mad and crying. Create lesson and message

I have watched this play by Tyler Perry so many times. The characters as far as playing their parts were just great. Tyler is still displaying a message in this play as all the others that he's produced what can happen in real life in a marriage when two people that are high professionals themselves can drift away or get lost in their careers. It's so easy to get caught up in other things that can cause an effect on a marriage if you're not paying attention to what's going on . My man Palmer took the show off the hook. I've studied all of the people Tyler has chosen in each play since the beginning, but Palmer has out aced them all. This man is not talented he has been born with the gift from birth. Anthony I've seen in some of the play's also is great. When he played the part in Why did I get married I fell in love with him right then and was hoping that Tyler would us him more. In marriage counselor when he founded out that his wife had commit cheated on him and he set there a cried tore me up. At the same time he was not paying attention to her needs where he should. It was a play to demonstrate how in real life what can happen when we don't place God as our captain. We are bound to allow the adversary trick us and we fall and drift the wrong way. Everyone should get this DVD and study it if you're professional business person or not.

People frequently say Tyler Perry's plays/movies are overhyped and too sappy. I like too sappy. But I believe this play lives up to the hype. This play was my introduction to Palmer Williams Jr aka Floyd. But the entire cast was very talented and performed within the lines needed. Tyler himself says he did this play as a vehicle to give new actors a break. This was truly a successful effort. All the ladies sang well, not too much over the top performances as well as the plot played out well. There were noticeable differences from the movie. I believe theres an advantage to the disc standing on its own. It shows you this play is a great mix of talent, timing and Tyler's vision.

This is a very good movie anything by Tyler Perry is great to me.

I love all of Tyler Perry's plays. Someone had the foresight to put many of his plays on the big screen. While this may not rank as one of those, it was still entertaining. The situations were relatable. Many of us have probably been there, done that ourselves. With the usual Perry flair, the singing and humor added the necessary sparks to the play. He always finds great singers and recalls those actor/singers from the past to make appearances. It was entertaining. The last half hour was hilarious! I apologize for not putting this comment in the 'correct' place.

There are always parts of a play you don't care for but overall this was good. There was some overacting on the mother and daughters part. Palmer Williams made the play. He was funny and thorough in his part. The white girl could sing but she was not a good actress. Every word out of her mouth seemed rehearsed because it wasn't her way of speaking. She just couldn't get it across in the way she should have. The girl that played the wife was not realistic with her screaming, and intentionally humiliating the husband. The husband was just plain stupid. I don't know if I disliked him or the wife more. He was just as bad as she was. I only enjoyed him when he interacted with the father. I don't even want to talk about the guy who played the other man. I enjoyed the woman who played the stripper (excuse me, exotic dancer)I thought she was quite funny. Her husbands role wasn't really significant, not enough to call it good or bad. The big girl was hilarious as well. There was more good than bad in this play. Yes, there have been better, but there have also been worse. I thought Palmer Williams was exceptional. I laughed almost every time he was on the screen. Seeing him in The House of Payne does him no justice. I actually borrowed the dvd from my neice to watch, but I am going to purchase it. I give it 4 stars.

Love this play!

Marriage Counselor is an excellent play that conveys the Black woman and Black man of today. The woman is more successful from the professional stand point of a career and does not understand that being loved is more important than being financially successful. On the otherhand, the man is truly not a good listener and is lacking in communication skills when it comes to what she is actually saying in regards to their relationship. This is typical of many Black relationships struggling to make marriages work. We need to be more aware of these basic problems in order to evaluate what communication skills can be developed and improved upon as a race of people; "Marriage Counselor" is a play indicative of the challenges a relationship presents when there is a flaw in communication.

This is a very uplifting and funny play. Perfect for a 'couples night', where you will laugh and also be able to discuss some of the issues in a marriage.

I love this play, the music, plot and cast were fantastic. I liked the fact that Tyler Perry introduced new actors as he had a tendency to use the same cast for his other ones. This play was full of the usual humour but with a very important message being carried through. It had the usual twists and turns, so you laughed, cried and empatised fully with the characters involved. Here's hoping for more of Mr Perry's productions.

Fantastic movie laughter and tears, it certainly opened your eyes to the work that goes into making a marriage work. Another good movie by Tyler Perry.

Very funny, love it

love it always entertaining
