Tyler Perry Keeps on Earning with "The Family That Preys"

There's one thing Tyler Perry does for sure: He keeps the black actors employed. His seventh film opens today across the nation. The story features two families; a wealthy white one, and a working class black one. Still the matriarchs of these families maintain a special friendship, in spite of the fact that their adult children have not made good judgments. Kathy Bates stars as Charlotte Cartwright, owner of a profitable construction business, and mother to William (played by Cole Hauser)who begins an affair with Andrea (Sanaa Lathan), daughter of Charlotte's friend Alice Pratt (Alfre Woodard). I can't wait to see this film and after I do, I will share my thoughts!!

Other Films Out Today: Righteous Kill starring Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino and ahem Curtis Jackson or for the hip-hoppers, better known as 50 Cent.


Update:
Now I told y'all I was gonna come back with my review of "The Family That Preys". It was hella (yeah hella) good. Tyler is honing his skills in the drama genre and this film does not disappoint. It made me think about my own family and some of the things we have endured. From generations past to present, every family has secrets...Okay, nevermind my family drama. Sanaa Lathan plays a mistress who get big bank from her white lover--and a child to go along with it. Her unsuspecting husband, Chris (Rockmond Dunbar) is a blue collar brutha blinded by with the love of his scandalous wife. Her sister, Pam (Taraji P. Henson) is a hellion who doesn't bite her tongue and protects her mother Abigail (Alice Woodard) in Ride or Die fashion. I love Abigail(Robin Givens) way of being a smart ass with grace (she always manages to pull of the bourgeois roles good) and her killer wardrobe. She puts Sanaa in her place and chin-checks her lover William (Cole Hauser) as well. When the drama unravels honey, it gets real good. I'm not going to give away the goods, take your derriere to the movies and give Tyler his bread. You won't be disappointed--unless you're sleeping with a married man.
