This movie is one of the worst AA chick flick films I've ever witnessed. I've ranted about it irl to so many people and I will do the same here. I LOVED the play version of this. It's actually my favorite Tyler Perry play that wasn't too over the top, greatly executed and most importantly NO MADEA.
As far as the picture and acting goes for this film, it's solid(ish). The actors are good, they were just given a terrible script.
On top of that, which is the bane of the film's existence, the storyline is retarded.
I'm not going to go into details about what the film is about, you can wiki that yourself. Once you have you should know that I have a REAL problem with the message this movie tried to throw at us.
"Your life will go to absolute shyt if you have an affair."
And there are tons of other messages this film so poorly tried to execute but this one stuck with me the most.
I get that marriage is supposed to be sacred and that you should stick it out with the person through rough patches. I'm a firm believer in this myself, especially when I get married. But the way they went about teaching this lesson was bullshyt.
First of all, Judith and Brice were both at fault in the marriage. Judith had aspirations for herself and wanted to actually progress in life whereas Brice, who acknowledged those goals, didn't really support her at a timely manner. It could be argued that he was thinking realistically, but due to his very lax (extremely lax) character it seemed that he didn't prioritize putting much thought into helping out his wife. She was obviously frustrated over this and she bottled it up for his sake.
There was also the issue of Brice just not being what she wanted in a man. They had been "in love" since they were kids.
shyt was doomed to fail from the get because she was basically in love with her brother the entire time.
The character development was really fukking shytty too. The man Judith had an affair with started off smooth as fukk and as
as I was when watching the two on screen, they (their characters) had chemistry and matched very well. However the story deemed it fit that the man suddenly become extremely crazy and Judith become extremely irrational 
Really movie? You couldn't go about this a little more realistically? As soon as Judith decides that she's going to be with this rich man, even going as far as leaving her husband (so there is no longer an relationship romantically) her life just goes to hell. Nothing good happens, ever, the rest of the time. She gets abused AFTER she has already left her husband, she gets HIV, she loses her job and pretty much everything else that mattered to her.
What kills me is that they have the nerve to show Brice with a younger woman at the end of the movie
Like why does he come out with a happy ending when he played a role in her downfall too? This isn't right, movie. shyt was bizarre and I'm still not quite over it even two years later 
But yeah, that's my take on this piece of shyt.
