Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor (2013) Review by Steve Pulaski from United States
"Overwrought" is the word to describe Tyler Perry's Temptation. Betweenthe simple conflicts, cardboard characters, and stiflingly slow dialogalmost entirely erected off of carbon-copy dramas, it shows itsagonizingly long roots by taking every possible scenario and stretchingit to a length beyond maddening tedium. There's almost no need to evenwrite a review on this picture, because if you're not turned off by thename "Tyler Perry," you're likely turned off by the amateur cast thefilm boasts, the dopey plot(s), or the presence of the always wooden,never charismatic Kim Kardashian.
Tyler Perry's films have been a roller-coaster for a non-fan likemyself. I believe his pictures almost demand the audience to haveability to relate too its characters on screen, and if you don't, thenyou've demolished one of the crucial ways of being able to like thefilm as a whole. But if you even if you do have the relatable factordown, there are still a number of other characteristics of his picturesthat will do the job of turning you off. The abundance of clichés,stereotypes, senseless slapstick, religious motives, and ridiculouscharacters is enough to warrant a walk-out.
The film stars Jurnee Smollett-Bell and Lance Gross as Judith andBrice, childhood sweethearts that are married in an upper-class area.She is a matchmaker, working to become a full-time marriage counselor,while he is a pharmacist and a successful one at that. After six yearsof marriage, Judith becomes greatly unsatisfied by the drab life she isliving, and in due-time because she meets Harley (Robbie Jones), animmensely successful, social-networking pioneer who is in dire need ofa woman. From first sight, Judith is mesmerized by his confidence,money, and ability to talk a woman up as big as the house he lives in.We see where this is going, but Judith, who appears very bright andfocused - with a mind similar to Kimberly Elise's character in Diary ofa Mad Black Woman - doesn't. Soon, they are sneaking around, havingsexual fun together, while she is being showered with gifts, all whiletrying to remain indiscreet to Brice.
This is the immediate problem of Tyler Perry's Temptation; there are nolikable characters (except Brice), no characters with any intelligentjudgment, and no characters that extend themselves past formulaic anddull. Take Judith for example, who we are allegedly supposed tosympathize with, even during the instances when she is cheating. We'rejust supposed to think, "well, it's justifiable since she's upset andBrice doesn't stand up for her as a man should." There's nojustification for cheating, but the film makes it out to be up untilthings go really, really wrong.
It's, too, relevant that the film loves making ordeals out of pettynon-issues such as Brice not standing up for Judith when she iscat-called by a group of thugs on their night out. Judith proceeds togo to bed angry and embarrassed by her husband's lack of gall to defendher or even initiate something. A scene not long after shows Harleyalmost beating a cyclist to a pulp after running into Judith when shewas clearly at fault. Is he how men should behave? The film tries toshow us that, even though his actions are grossly immature compared toBrice's, he's better because he at least tries.
Tyler Perry's Temptation fails in large part, however, because of itswriting. It is an early candidate for the worst written film of theyear. It runs on the fuel of inane dialog, corny lines, and senselessdrama. Take for example the scene when Harley and Judith are on hisprivate plane, and Harley questions what Judith "dreams about." Whenshe responds, she ricochets the question off of him, to which hereplies, "of you?" in a delivery that is akin to primetime soap operas.I can't remember cringing harder to a line of dialog. Then there's ascene where Judith is found battered in a bathtub. When Brice asks her,"where does it hurt?" she replies, "here," while placing her hand onhis heart. To see the audience eat scenes up like this makes me deeply,deeply scared to think they have romantic expectations probably notalien to the kind in this film.
The leads aren't dreadful here, as Smollett-Bell and Gross are the kindof actors you crave to Streaming in better material, but the presence ofreality-TV star Kim Kardashian in a film is about as off-putting and astasteless as the persona she gives on that godforsaken program ofher's. Why must Kardashian inhabit a secondary role in this film, letalone a role at all? Why not find a bodacious woman with huge breasts,a huge buttocks, and wildly unrealistic curves with no celebrity appealfor half the price? Perry's name alone is big enough to sell the mostlurid screenplay/movie, so why work a role for her? It doesn't matter,though; I'm wasting words. She's about as unappealing and cloying as asecondary character played by an unnecessary celebrity can get. It willtake a performance of a true despicable nature to dethrone her from a"Worst New Actress" award at the forthcoming Razzies.
Tyler Perry's Temptation is a sermon that will effectively preach tothe choir that has graciously accepted every film he has released sinceDiary of a Mad Black Woman back in 2005. However, it has become clearnow that public success is all that matters to Perry. He no longerseems to have ambition to make films that cater to a denominator otherthan the lowest or the most demanding. He attempts to get by onmelodramatic clichés, laughable dialog, moral preachiness, inclusionsof a sappy Christian agenda, and frustratingly inert plotpoints. I wishhim well, and hope one day I can recommend a movie by him. I respecthim as a self-made filmmaker, but that's about it, I'm afraid.
Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor (2013) Review by emartin-1 from South Florida
There are many things to admire about Tyler Perry. His ascent in theentertainment industry is incredible, and he has used his powereffectively to give a voice to the African-American experience the sameway Woody Allen has for the Jewish experience. He gives opportunitiesto young African-Americans actors and veterans such as Cicely Tyson whowould struggle to find work elsewhere. Perry is a shrewd, powerfulbusinessman. But he's a horrible director and mediocre writer. Hislatest project "Temptation" is his worst to date. The premise not onlystraddles the lines of implausibility, it's downright ridiculous. Agirl-next-door-type (Jurnee Smollett-Bell) who is married to a man shehas known since they were both 6 years old suddenly decides to have anaffair with one of her clients. She also starts to snort cocaine andhang out in seedy nightclubs. A subplot involving actress/singer Brandyis also dumb, and the plot twist at the end is the icing on the cake tothis mess. When the credits began rolling, the reaction in my theaterfelt like a collective "Are you kidding me?" Perhaps it only makessense that Kim Kardashian is in this movie. Remember in algebra classwhen we learned that a negative and a positive always equal a negative?That's what the scenes between Kardashian and Smollett-Bell produce.One can act, one can't. You do the math. Perry also needs to stop withthe pointless close-up shots and phony eye-drop tears. Although withthis flop, it's the audience members who paid $10 who should be crying.
Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor (2013) Review by pjth1965 from United States
Please i would like my money back. Tyler Perry movies one expects to beentertained have some laughs and go home smiling. Nothing serious ormind boggling deep rooted drama.
Kim Kardashian ruins this experience like no other, talk about woodencant speak understandably nasals along lifeless and ruins the fun ofgoing to the movies.
Please there must be some consideration that for a family it is $80 atrip to the movies cost and than to get put this inability of acting onthe screen is pure fraud. I feel defrauded. do not go to see this it issimply not worth the price of a DVD.
trash pure trash thanks to the casting of Kim.
