Film Review – Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor

Tyler Perry's Temptation Still 3

Tyler Perry makes two types of films: comedies and melodramas. He'll
usually blend the genres to give his audience the most bang for their
buck, but he's resolute in his directorial range, with "Temptation:
Confessions of a Marriage Counselor" his most combustible picture to
date, even out-heaving "For Colored Girls." A biblical parable dressed
up as an unruly Perry extravaganza, the feature does a commendable job
with fiery tempers and silky acts of seduction, showing signs of life as
a cheap thrill for an audience more than happy to interact with the
screen. Expectedly, Perry can't maintain the insanity for long,
eventually drowning the effort in severity to make a chilling
impression. Still, "Temptation," when it's just overheated and not
apocalyptic, is engaging enough to pass, generating sufficient
hullabaloo without taxing Perry's pedestrian moviemaking skills. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
