Why Did I Get Married Too? (2010) is a movie that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows our four couples from the first film getting together for their annual couples trip. This time there will be one new couple and all new problems. Can the group work together to overcome their drama or will the drama overcome them?

This movie is written, stars and is directed by Tyler Perry (Diary of a Mad Black Woman) and also stars Janet Jackson (Poetic Justice), Jill Scott (Baggage Claim), Sharon Leal (Dreamgirls), Malik Yoba (Cool Runnings), Richard T. Jones (Event Horizon) and Tasha Smith (The Whole Ten Yards).

Perry did a great job of bringing back the original cast for this picture. It was great seeing them again and picking up where the first film left off. The cameos were also awesome and I loved seeing Louis Gossett Jr. (Iron Eagle), Cicely Tyson (The Help) and Dwayne Johnson (Black Adam). The storyline was very uneven. The ex husband coming on the trip seemed awkward and forced. It's too bad because the divorce was so well written and executed. The drunk night coming home was super sad and the "move out day" was perfectly depicted. Janet Jackson delivers a tremendous performance. There's a car crash scene that is awesome and the twist ending was great.

Overall, this is a very uneven movie that is definitely worth a watch but not as good as it should have been. I would score this a 5.5-6/10 and strongly recommend it.

Wow, what a movie. I made an account just so I can review this one particular movie. When it started out, I was bored out of my mind, I didn't care about the characters and then something epic would happen and I would be like "oh yes! Finally, something good!" and then it would be shot down by predictable acting and I was like "...really?" However, once Janet had her pleasant outburst with her soon to be ex, I was happily engaged in the movie although still edging on falling to sleep and being half awake. I think her performance was one of the better aspects of the movie due to the fact that I could understand why her character did what she did. It bothers me though that you never understand WHY they were getting a divorce. Then at the end, it was forced in that she would go harass her husband, that was the only part where I was like "lol...wut?" Then you have the other sub plots such as the wife cheating on her husband, it was OK but it bothered me that when he wasn't with his wife, he showed no signs of being bothered at all. Life was swell. And then with the wife you didn't see her change toward her husband at all, they just assumed you were supposed to just take it as is and not ask questions. Then you had Mark(I think that was his name) who shows up randomly and acts all hunky dorey and I miss my ex wife which, once again, you don't really get a full grasp of the situation you're kinda just thrown in.

I will admit Marcus and his wife were funny and they made me feel happy although they were stereotyped, it was refreshing because I know people like that and its just hilarious.

Now...my biggest complaint that leaves this review to be a 4...the ending. I didn't care that Terry died, I figured that out but they could have tried to resolve it better and then at the hospital, Janet screams "Fix it!" and everyone is like "ok! *smooch* fixed!" it could have been so much better! Don't bring me up to the top of the mountain just to push me down with that sorry excuse of a resolution. Then...what really set me off was the cameo of The Rock or Dwayne Johnson if that's correct. Why is he in it? That was a distraction from the entire movie in general! He didn't need to have the epic camera shots, I walked out but then stopped because it was the end of the movie anyway.

Speaking of camera shots, the face shots when they were talking was a horrible way to portray the movie. It annoyed me because I kept thinking this scene could be a lot better if they just zoomed out and let us watch the characters speak. This may sound odd but I felt like I was watching a movie, not someone's life. It kept reminding me that it was a movie and if the Tyler Perry was going for a POV shot, fail.

This movie starts off boring, gets good, and then becomes just...difficult. So much potential...what happened? That's all I gotta say.

I was a bit too young to remember the last Tyler Perry movie I saw, and was never exposed to any of his actual plays. Thus, I held neutral expectations for "Why Did I Get Married Too," though I heard that its predecessor was quite good. I ALMOST left the theater taken aback at Perry's exceptional directing and understanding of human emotions. Unfortunately, that was all but squashed by one of the worst endings I've seen in a long time.

The plot is quite straightforward. Terry (Tyler Perry) and Diane (Sharon Leal) embark on their yearly couples retreat (sounds familiar?) with their friends, all of whom are also married. Marcus (Michael Jai White) and Angela (Tasha Smith) are constantly at odds with each other for any reason they (as in mostly Angela) can fathom, Troy (Lamman Rucker) and Sheila (Jill Scott) are battling the all-too-real consequences of unemployment, while Patricia (Janet Jackson) and Gavin (Mailk Yoba) serve as the model relationship for the group. The retreat is brought back to a harsh reality when Sheila's former husband, Mike (Richard Jones), unknowingly books time with the group's beach house for the weekend. His interruption, unbeknownst to the couples, tests their relationships as their own flaws slowly unravel and manifest themselves.

Perry's playwriting influences are made apparent right from the beginning, as each character behaves and builds in a play-like manner. This works strongly in his favor, as each character is developed well enough to bring significant amounts of powerful tension and drama later into the film. Perry also fiddles with the emotions of his audience like a puppet master, tossing them from angst to anger to happiness with incredible ease and lightning-fast timing. Every actor was stretched to their emotional limits in this film; I found Jackson's performance shockingly spectacular here and her conflict with Yoba to be one of the most intense partnerships I've seen in a while. In short, I felt like I was yanked from my seat and strapped onto the front of an emotional roller-coaster right from the beginning.

Unfortunately, that trains flew off the tracks into a horrible crash landing in the film's final ten minutes. While the ending was somewhat unexpected, it was certainly not the ending I *wanted* to expect. It was as if Perry waited an hour and 50 minutes to cram all of the clichéd, fantasy, happy-ending-feel-goodness Hollywood delivers in spades. The last two minutes were especially insulting. It was so appalling for me, in fact, that it made me spend the two hour train ride home realizing many of the other plot holes and unanswered questions Perry made irrelevant for me beforehand. I'm just going to assume that Perry didn't write the ending; it makes more sense.

All in all, the film is exceptionally well-made, incredibly moving and does not rely on its previous installment for the audience to wholly appreciate. Even despite its questionably poor ending, I highly recommend it.
