Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
valeriagood Watching Peeples turned out to be a pleasant way to pass time while I'm away from home on an extended business trip. I remember seeing the Peeples trailers on TV and online last year, but I forgot about the movie until I browsed on Netflix. Granted, the movie definitely isn't Oscar material, but it's definitely a fun movie to watch. There have been movies I've viewed that made me regret I wasted my time watching them and left me feeling upset because I couldn't get that 90 or 120 minutes back. Peeples isn't one of those movies. Peeples is a movie that is relaxing to watch. You won't burn too much white matter viewing the movie, but it makes one think about pretentiousness and 'rich people's problems' can be. Don't go in with seriousness when you watch this movie. It's lighthearted with the feathery touches on love, humor, priorities, family, acceptance and life choices. I didn't know Tyler Perry made the movie until I viewed the credits. It didn't make a difference, but it surprised me that he made it. He's definitely changing up his movie- making style or at least adding to it. I enjoyed the movie. I'll watch it again with my family on movie night. It's kind of cute how Kerry Washington claps her hands in happiness in Peeples like she did in Django. David Allen Grier made for a very unlikely patriarch, but he pulled it off nicely due to the nice chemistry with S. Epatha Merkerson and the other cast members who made up the family and his conflicts with Craig Robinson. I liked the entire cast. I hope Tyler Perry makes a Peeples II. He can polish it up a bit for the naysayers or leave it 'as is' for a nice continuation, but I fell in love with the Peeples clan. They truly have room to develop as characters on screen. It would be interesting to see what Tyler Perry comes up with in the sequel. I'm going to buy a ticket to go to the movie theater if he brings the lovable clan back to life in a sequel, though.
darkchaoschao This movie is classified as a "romance" and a "comedy". I wouldn't call it a romantic movie because there were only little bits of romance in the movie, romance you can find in many movies not considered romantic. Anyway, this movie is about a guy named Wade (Craig Robinson) who wants to propose to his girlfriend Grace (Kerry Washington), so he randomly shows up at her families house... which is the setting of the most of the movie. Basically Grace has never introduced Wade to her parents, and well... she has actually never mentioned Wade to her family - so when he pops in and introduced himself as "Wade", they are oblivious to who he is. Grace's father is very "high class" and what I would consider an adult-snob... whereas the other family members are more laid-back and chill. So throughout the movie Wade is trying to figure out when the best time to propose to Grace is... and of course problems and events occur throughout the movie. So that's the basic plot.Was the movie funny? There were a few funny moments, but it wasn't like I was bursting out laughing throughout the movie... nonetheless, the movie was alright and fairly entertaining. There was little "romance" in the movie and a very minuscule amount of "drama". It's a very light- hearted movie as well. It was worth watching, although I wouldn't recommend the movie to my friends to watch.
JO B This review is written primarily for those who are considering whether or not to take their children to see this movie. I took my 13-year old to see this movie and definitely should have reviewed the content and movie reviews before doing so. I simply saw that it was a Tyler Perry show and PG-13 and assumed we would love it. Although there are plenty of funny scenes, there are also some they can do without. The scenes with sexual content (both heterosexual & homosexual, and scenes about a 3-some) could have been left out of this movie without impacting the storyline. These scenes clearly aren't appropriate for a PG-13...not sure why it's rated as such. I highly recommend you leave your children home for this Tyler Perry movie. Hopefully the next one will come out with the correct ratings and with more humor.
Ms. Review Last I could not help but notice a post that read "Peeples" should be rated R for "lesbian situations." Exactly what is that supposed to mean? What if I said it should be rated R for heterosexual situations? Does that make any sense? It sounds weird. I wonder if this person goes around throwing the rated R sticker on movies just because they have lesbian characters. That is bigoted. Same-sex attraction is not just an adult thing and there is nothing wrong or inappropriate about being a lesbian.Now to my review: Wade (Craig Robinson) is trying to find the perfect time to propose to his girlfriend Grace (Kerry Washington) but has no luck. When Grace visits her family in the Hamptons, Wade decides to show up by surprise and meet the family himself.I enjoyed seeing Craig Robinson and Kerry Washington in the movie "Peeples". I thought it was funny. I took my mom to see the movie on Mother's Day and she loved it. One of my favorite scenes was when Grace tried to introduce Wade to her parents.I believe the PG-13 rating fits the movie. I notice some people on here would beg to differ.There are no nudity or sex scenes included. There is this one scene where Wade has Grace over his lap and he is spanking her, but that's about it. This movie does a perfectly good job at binding everything together to form a family comedy to enjoy. I plan to see this movie again.(Ms. Review is a 25 year old female who writes short stories on her free time.)
