Film Review – Peeples

The marketing for “Peeples” has been stamped silly with the Tyler Perry
brand name, though he only has a vague producer presence here, not a
primary creative role. Actually, it’s probably a mistake to have Mr.

expecting something volcanic from a movie that just wants to relax and
have a little harmless fun. It’s more Huxtables than hysterical. That’s
not to suggest “Peeples” is an especially good film, but when it finds
its silly stride, there’s some amusement to be had, providing a few
scattered laughs. Its even-tempered atmosphere of mischief is perfectly
alien to Perry’s bazooka approach, so be warned acolytes, this feature
isn’t going to scratch that pan-wielding melodrama itch.
