GOOD DEEDS

Another Tyler Perry one y'all


This one ain't even have a trailer put out on the internet yet nugga, this is some exclusive shit.


Okay, again,  I like to be neutral with this brotha.  He seems to be stepping his game up quite nicely.  This movie was good.


Its about a brotha, Wesley Deeds played by Perry, who is the successor of a software company founded by his father.  He has a a fine ass fiance, played by fine ass Gabrielle Union,  an asshole/alcoholic/fuck up of a brother played by Brian White, and a mother played by Claire Huxtable(Phylicia Rashad).  Thandie Neewton is in this one too playing the self-defeating black woman real tough.


So as I laid out before Wesley Deeds is the CEO of a software company.  He inherited that position from his dad after he died and his brother Walter Deeds, played by Brian White, is jealous of him for getting offered that position over him because Wesley didn't want it as bad as him.  But his brother is a fuck up and an asshole to the umpteenth degree.   He is reckless as fuck at the mouth and doesn't really have restraint enough to head the business.  Walter gets DUI's, fucks random bitches in the workplace, and checks women in public not exactly the nigga to run a company of this caliber, maybe more suitable for Walter's Chicken Shack or some shit similar.


Thandie Newton plays the angry disgruntled self defeating black woman named Lindsey.  She has a story that will make you lightweight understand her situation.  But here attitude will have you teetering on having sympathy for her or being on a "that's what her angry ass deserves" mentality about her doing's. She has an adorable snag-a-tooth daughter that balances out your feelings toward her. Thandie plays the fuck outta her angry black woman character.  She is real disrespectful to the brothers, plays the soft victim role when she put on blast for fucking but will quickly return to asshole again in a second. 


So this Lindsey crosses paths with Wesley Deeds in a dispute over a parking space where she parks in Wesley's spot and he catches her and she basically tells him to f#ck off.  Walter, played by Brian White, wasn't having that disrespect towards his brother and didn't approve of Wesley's handling of the situation.  So Walter expresses that with an up'd level of disrespect and the tone is set with these characters.


So further down, Tyler's character finds out about Thadie's character situation, which is sad, and his inner Captain comes out and saves her and her adorable daughter.  His dealings with this angry Lindsey leads him to thinking about what his life has become and what life has to offer in general.  He begins to question his engagement etc.


Bottomline, I was impressed by this movie.  Tyler Perry has stepped it up in this one and I would like to see more from him like this.   With his cape out on this one, he is catering to black women in this one as he always does, but that is his main audience and he is getting paper from it so I can't knock him.  I don't think it would have went down quite like it did in the movie most woulda wrote Thandie's character off due to her attitude early on but it made for an entertaining evening so I ain't mad.


My Rating:
4.5/5
Leave the dress and Madea alone, keep this good work up and you'll have new fans.

UPDATE:
THIS IS THE BEST TYLER HAS PUT FORTH SINCE THE FAMILY THAT PREYS AND THE FIRST WHY DID I GET MARRIED!
