Slammed as Neflix’s worst movie and Tyler Perry at his worst. I don’t agree but when you watch Acrimony and this, you will feel the same. They said, “The movie has a silly plot, no rhythm, no surprises and no emotions. The actors are soulless and have no chemistry and the dialogues are banal, nearly comical”
I happen to stumble upon it. I could tell the plot because it was so predictable. What kept me going was the mystery of who killed the girl? At some point I was beginning to suspect Zyair did it. Then the plot twist hit me, Ray did it and it was all a plot to frame Zyair and use him as a PR stunt for his run for mayor and revenge for Zyair sleeping with his wife.
I didn’t enjoy the casting though, true true the actors had no chemistry. Zyair and Mea though but the rest, nada. Ray and Kal are actually brothers in real life hence they flowed well.
Zyair eventually broke through Mea’s tough girl act. That was the climax if you ask me. That was some real snake move. You think you have walls then you meet a bad smooth tongued devil that will knock them down. Themes of manipulation everywhere.
Mea Culpa is latin for ‘My bad” “My fault”. Mea’s fault was letting her guard down.
I saw Kelly Rowland as lead and I knew I will watch it and not complain.
Tyler Perry should better compose and give us another ‘acrimony type” flick abeg.
Not a Tyler Perry classic but its ok.
