I have just watched 'Tyler Perry's Diary of a Mad Black Woman' over my friends house and I must say, it was very enjoyable. Kimberly Elise was tremendous the the title's Mad Black Woman- Helen, and Mr. Perry is hilarious as Madea. I would recommend this hilarious and heartbreaking film to mature teens and most adults. *pc795

Rating: Pause for 14 and up. This movie starts out with the picture perfect couple, but as it says, looks can be decieving. The husband has been cheating on the wife and litterally throws her out. She goes to stay with a family relative, Madea. Then, also still dealing with drama and serious topics, it starts to become a comedy. This continues for a while, and then tapers back into a drama. The movie features, strong women, and mainly African-Americans. They use sexuality for humor and for serious dramatic parts, too. Such as: (Comedy)Madea: "You had sex with him whenever he wanted. Was it good?" Helen: "No." Madea: "Major deduction." Also, drugs are a serious topic, and there is someone smoking in almost every scene. The violence is 'iffy'. The husband abuses Helen, and so on. Overall, this movie was good, but maybe when the kids are in bed!
