The Marriage Counselor (The Play)

I have watched this play by Tyler Perry so many times. The characters as far as playing their parts were just great. Tyler is still displaying a message in this play as all the others that he's produced what can happen in real life in a marriage when two people that are high professionals themselves can drift away or get lost in their careers. It's so easy to get caught up in other things that can cause an effect on a marriage if you're not paying attention to what's going on . My man Palmer took the show off the hook. I've studied all of the people Tyler has chosen in each play since the beginning, but Palmer has out aced them all. This man is not talented he has been born with the gift from birth. Anthony I've seen in some of the play's also is great. When he played the part in Why did I get married I fell in love with him right then and was hoping that Tyler would us him more. In marriage counselor when he founded out that his wife had commit cheated on him and he set there a cried tore me up. At the same time he was not paying attention to her needs where he should. It was a play to demonstrate how in real life what can happen when we don't place God as our captain. We are bound to allow the adversary trick us and we fall and drift the wrong way. Everyone should get this DVD and study it if you're professional business person or not.

Have always loved this since I once upon a time owned it on DVD... Best movie put out by Tyler Perry... ever. The stage plays always hit the right way that a standard movie cannot. 🎬 Will always be in my top 5.

This play was pretty good. I wouldn't buy it (for my own collection), to watch it as much as I want. One time is enough for me. It was a little funny. The acting, overall, wasn't the best but still great (95%). The messages on marriage were good and helpful. The singing was excellent, as always. The songs themselves were okay. The life situations were accurate. I like how it showed that not everyone gets a "happily ever after" and that people still have things to work out even after their lives turn around for the better. I love the movie so much more.

This is another of Tyler Perry's well-written and highly entertaining plays. It would have been nice to see another couple in the session, but it worked really nicely with just the two very funny couples. The father is much funnier than the mother, but he could be funny playing opposite a paper bag. The more serious or tender conversations slowed just a couple of scenes, but not to the point that you get bored and it is important for the way the play ends. There is a strong Christian message, but I feel that is intertwined a little better in this one because it is not so "in your face" and "preachy" like some of the other plays. This is one of the plays that would have an awesome soundtrack, so when the group sings together, it is really the highlight of the play. Great from start to finish!

There are always parts of a play you don't care for but overall this was good. There was some overacting on the mother and daughters part. Palmer Williams made the play. He was funny and thorough in his part.The white girl could sing but she was not a good actress. Every word out of her mouth seemed rehearsed because it wasn't her way of speaking. She just couldn't get it across in the way she should have.The girl that played the wife was not realistic with her screaming, and intentionally humiliating the husband. The husband was just plain stupid. I don't know if I disliked him or the wife more. He was just as bad as she was. I only enjoyed him when he interacted with the father. I don't even want to talk about the guy who played the other man.I enjoyed the woman who played the stripper (excuse me, exotic dancer)I thought she was quite funny. Her husbands role wasn't really significant, not enough to call it good or bad. The big girl was hilarious as well. There was more good than bad in this play. Yes, there have been better, but there have also been worse. I thought Palmer Williams was exceptional. I laughed almost every time he was on the screen. Seeing him in The House of Payne does him no justice. I actually borrowed the dvd from my neice to watch, but I am going to purchase it. I give it 4 stars.

This is another Tyler Perry plays that I enjoyed. So many talented actors and actresses. Palmer Williams Jr, is very funny and extremely talented. I really missed watching these plays, they always have a Good moral story. Just remember, to wait on the Lord and be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thy heart.

Marriage Counselor is an excellent play that conveys the Black woman and Black man of today. The woman is more successful from the professional stand point of a career and does not understand that being loved is more important than being financially successful. On the otherhand, the man is truly not a good listener and is lacking in communication skills when it comes to what she is actually saying in regards to their relationship. This is typical of many Black relationships struggling to make marriages work. We need to be more aware of these basic problems in order to evaluate what communication skills can be developed and improved upon as a race of people; "Marriage Counselor" is a play indicative of the challenges a relationship presents when there is a flaw in communication.

Sorry it's preference I really don't like plays so I sent it back, still waiting for a refund. It just not suit all. If they make this into a film I will be first in the queue to buy & support my favourite actor/director

Tyler Perry needs to make this into a movie. I loved chracters, story line was very good, twist at end, great. Advice buy will not be disappointed. Remeber play so singing, talking involved.

I just love Tyler Perry movies....They always deliver too...My Autistic son just loves the songs and watches them back to back keeps him occupied for hours........

Love Tyler Perry's movies and the undelying messages it contains. Disappointed however to find this is more a play thana movie/DVD production.

Fantastic movie laughter and tears, it certainly opened your eyes to the work that goes into making a marriage work. Another good movie by Tyler Perry.
