Critics Consensus

Boo! A Madea Halloween won't win Tyler Perry's long-running franchise many new converts -- but at nine films and counting, it hardly needs to.

Kimberley Jones

Austin Chronicle

Excepting Perry's performance as Brian, the film is chockablock with terrible actors, and the jokes he gives his inferior cast to work with are stinkers.

Rated: 0.5/5

AV Club

Madea remains a distinctive, weirdly compelling character. Maybe someday Perry will make a good comedy for her.

Rated: D+

Glenn Kenny

New York Times

Mr. Perry is ... an eccentric, inspired performer, and his screen-filling antics as the raucous but righteous Madea - a character who runs through Mr. Perry's stage, film and TV work - is the truly pertinent component here.

Splice Today

The film spirals into supposedly funny, but actually vindictive, violent fantasy.

Like the trick-or-treating scene, Perry the director doesn't know when to exit.

Brian pede a Madea que fique na sua casa para cuidar da sua filha adolescente, enquanto ele viaja a trabalho. Porém, Tiffany tem outros planos: ir a uma festa de Halloween em uma fraternidade. Para isso, ela aproveita que é Halloween e inventa uma história que há um espírito assombrando a sua casa para meter medo em Madea e suas amigas. Madea representa uma parte da população negra feminina que teve que trabalhar muito para poder sustentar a sua família e garantir um futuro melhor e, agora com mais idade, não possui filtro nenhum, falando as maiores barbaridades, ao mesmo tempo que é uma espécie de bastião da sua comunidade. O problema dessa personagem é que o humor que ela faz é muito regionalizado, muito nichado. A personagem não se importa em ser politicamente incorreta. Aliado a isso, temos o roteiro infantil e bobo de Perry e um elenco jovem muito ruim que não passam emoção nenhuma, em uma interpretação de teatro escolar. Mas continua a fazer sucesso nos Estados Unidos, principalmente porque fala direto a um público que não se vê nas telas de cinema.
