Redundant and unnecessary.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Movie ReviewNotably, one of the best movies I have ever seen is Tyler Perry's Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor gets a five out of five in my book. The movie starts off in the setting of a counselor's office where Judith, one of the main characters, is a marriage counselor. In the scene there is obviously a couple facing troubles in their marriage. The same situation, they are going through is one of which Judith went through in her life. At this point, the movie switches gears. Judith gives the couple a real life story based on the exact thing she went through. I favor this part the best because it makes you really have to pay attention to the story, and if you miss something you will probably be lost for the remainder of the movie. Usually when there is a romantic drama it is almost always predictable. The movie itself is all around creative, thrilling, and legendary. Its suspense and detailing story line left me wanting to watch it over and over again. The author of the movie, Tyler Perry, is well known for movies of this genre, romantic thrillers. Based off my knowledge of the director I knew the film would be outstanding. Usually when he does movies, he does a playwright first. After seeing the play, I did not think the director would change much, but he did. I think his change were for the benefit of the movie having an exciting end. I think Perry's purpose was to leave the watchers feeling as if he is an incredible director. While the director adds drama and excitement, the actors make the movie more entertaining. Lance Gross and Jurnee Smollett-Bell are both known for roles they play in dramas. The two actors were very good together, and viewers could tell they were very comfortable. In the movie, Lance shows his true acting skills by making the scene come to life. Example, before Judith started her affair he had a whole portraying his undying love for actor Judith. In the scene, he sings a song on his guitar in a very jokingly way. When Judith started her affair it was very prevalent that Lance felt the emotions in real life. Usually when you see movies with emotional scenes the actors are fake crying, but for him the tears were real. For actor Kim Kardashian, her role was the gossiping coworker. In real life she is very popular, and usually is in the scene when it comes to gossip. For her I know that playing the role was not a hard task. The actors of the movie I feel were very well chosen, and they all worked well together. From the setting of the condo, the movie looked as if it were filmed in California, or Florida. The scenes were realistic and obviously could tell hard work was put into it. The movie displays realistic and unrealistic scenarios. The original couple starts in what it seems as a small condominium, which is typical for just married couples. Both Judith and Lance did not have outstanding paying jobs, so the condominium seemed very appropriate. Whereas, the millionaire who needed help find a wife lived in a very upscale condominium what looked to fit his lifestyle. Seeing the two different condominiums all made sense to me. It also makes sense why Judith would want to have an affair because a nice place and a man with money is usually what sparks women interest. Nowadays that is not the best route as you would see in the movie those men are usually cheaters and abusers. Overall, the movie, actors, and scenery was a great choice for this movie. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes romantic dramas.

A shockingly good story! When I first sat down to watch this, I knew nothing about it. I'd never heard of it before Netflix suggested it to me. The first few minutes were really bad. The actors were unknowns, and quite frankly, their acting was pretty bad. I figured I'd give it a few more minutes to see if it improved any, and if not, I was going to shut it off. An hour later, I'd completely forgotten about turning it off. I was engrossed. The acting wasn't any better, but the story was amazing. Yes, I figured out the ending, and usually that irritates me, but this time it added to the story. It was as if Tyler Perry wanted the audience to know what was coming. I gave this 8/10 stars, despite the bad acting, just on the basis of the story itself.

Oh my goodness this movie was the bomb! First I must say that the lesson taught in this movie is accurate, cheat on your loving faithful spouse and there will be consequences, you may not see the consequences immediately but your sins will eventually find you out, and they did for the unfaithful wife. And she had to live with the consequences even though everyone forgave her for the infidelity. Secondly, it showed how easily it is to fall into an inappropriate relationship, that's why I think Kim Kardashian did a great job of acting (although largely playing what she does in real life, which is to be concerned with the externals). It was Kim's influence of external beauty that fueled the fire of the movie. I tell you this film is one that will keep you on the straight and narrow in your personal marital life. This is a must see movie!

This is probably one of the stupidest movies I have ever seen. Not only because it preaches pseudo-morals but because it makes absolutely no sense. OK, so you want to tell the world that if you don't stay with your boring husband who forgets your birthday two years in a row, you will burn in hell. Fine, if that's what you think. But do you have to throw in all the bad stuff just because? Seriously, who believes that?So we have this rich guy, who's supposed to be the next Mark Zuckerberg and who states himself that he is a workaholic. Now, imagine Zuckerberg would beat all his girlfriends, sleep around in parties and take drugs all day long: Wouldn't we all know that, because he's famous? Wouldn't we all know that ZUckerberg, Bill Gates, whoever on Forbes hits his wife? Come on! And how can it be that he is a workaholic, but then turns out he's taking drugs and partying all the time and actually never works? His ex girlfriend is super scared, we see how she walks into her apartment and takes a bat, just in case he's there, she wants to move away cause he came in where she works, she changed her name and yet, she is still living in the same city! Maker perfect sense, Tyler Perry.I don't want to bother you with more details, just don't watch this crap from someone who obviously doesn't have a very high opinion about women or sex.
