Tyler Perry's The Family That Preys was a very good movie experience. Then again all of Tyler Perry's movies are good and fun to watch. Later and later into the movie it got more and more intense. Toward the end of the movie it has you tearing, biting your nails, and on the edge of your seat, and at times ready to yell at the screen. Many people including me felt like clapping at some scenes. I think the story was very good. Their were many different characters stories that all tied together. All of the actors did a very good job. The ending was very good as well and didn't leave anything at all open. It had a great ending and was very realistic. I was happy with the ending. The movie inspires a lot of people. It teaches you that preying to GOD is a good thing. A lot of people in the movie needed to find GOD. The movie was very sad. It did take a while to finally get going with the story and find out more things. The movie is kind of hard to follow so pay attention. Overall though a great experience and a very entertaining movie for everyone.
