Director: Tyler Perry, Elvin Ross
Studio: Tyler Perry Co.
Product Type: DVD
Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
When pistol-packing, chain-smoking granny Mabel "Madea" Simmons (Tyler Perry) invites her family over for the weekend, chaos is sure to follow. First they gather for her sister Irene's funeral and then for the wedding of her granddaughter, Lisa (Sonya Evans). Naturally, nothing goes as planned. The rest of her extended family include daughters Cora (Tamela J. Mann) and Vickie (Pebbles Johnson), granddaughters Jackie (D'Atra Hicks) and Tina (Zakiya Williams), and irrepressible neighbor Mr. Brown (David Mann). The urban inspirational comedy, which was followed by popular spin-off Meet the Browns, takes place between the two events as family members attempt to heal their differences through quips, scriptures, and gospel-oriented numbers. Written, produced, and directed by Perry (who co-wrote the music and lyrics), Madea's Family Reunion was filmed in his hometown of New Orleans, Louisiana in February 2002. A feature film version starring Blair Underwood and Lynn Whitfield is planned for 2006. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Customer Reviews:
wonderful.......2006-08-07
I enjoy all the Tyler Perry plays and movies that is why I purchased the item
Madea Still in the House.......2006-07-31
I was really impressed and pleased with the fact that the Madea role was still true to form. I thought that being a movie would take away the real Madea role. But it didn't!!! Super. I really enjoyed it.
Cathy Autry (a Madea fan from the very beginning)
Matriarchy.......2006-07-04
We live out in the midwest, so when we saw this movie, we were struck by the style and elements this movie captured for not only Black Americans, but other minorities as well [including all of you of European ancestry, who don't think you have a culture too]. It was funny, but it has elements of pride in it about black people, that shows the value system and familial relationships that are tribal and beautiful. The scenes about the elders were breathtaking. They brought the women elders, grandmothers and great grandmothers into the circle at the family reuntion. Cecily Tyson and Maya Angelou added so much. I am pleased to recommend this movie, and you will be delightfully surprised, as we were. Your children should definitely watch it because we aren't aren't paying attention to our elders or doing things that include "Ceremony" to welcome our sacred children into our families.
all families.......2006-06-22
It's absolutely wonderful how Tyler is able to transcend all earthly families and show that we all have the same problems and we all need the same Savior
Madea's Family Reunion.......2006-03-20
This is a wonderful,well written family movie. Admire Tyler Perry's GOD given talent very much. However, I will not order anything else from Amazon. Amazon mislead people by stating it was 2006 and Lynn Whitfield was in this DVD. Since then Amazon has change the ad, prior to they sold many DVD's under a false ad. Again the movie is fantastic.
