Critics Consensus

It's bolstered by a strong performance from Janet Jackson, but ultimately, Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too? doesn't add anything new to Perry's melodramatic formula.

Candice Frederick

Reel Talk Online

[Writer/Director Tyler] Perry can't seem to break from his usual melodramatic, soap opera-esque formula in this movie, but he does manage to tug at our emotions for a funny, heartfelt, relatable look at marriage and love.

Hopelessly inert and dreary.

Perry has plugged a hole in the market, for sure; it's just all a bit pleased with itself.

While Why Did I Get Married Too? may not win Perry any new fans it will most assuredly keep his sizable legion of fans happy.

There are some decent performances here, particularly from Jill Scott, but they just can't save the clichd material from weighing down the whole film.

Rated: 1.5/4

It was great I loved these two films... I liked this much more than the original. BUT that ending with Gavin dying was absolutely stupid.. and did not make sense to give his wife a redemption a year later.. She couldn't move on for killing her son unintentionally, but could quickly move on from chasing her husband into traffic? Tyler Perry what the heck did you end the film this way? What an incredibly overrated writer oh my god. His finish to this flick was horrible

Gostei menos que o primeiro, mas esse teve mais testosterona de homens gostosos e sarados sem camisa nas Bahamas… Não foi tão divertido, nem tão dramático, mas cada homem musculoso que superou a chatice do filme… Retiro o que disse sobre o drama, gente, quanto drama familiar, adorável, bem fofo os relacionamentos maduros e realistas… E por aquele final, eu realmente não esperava...

Bloody awful. Definitely not a comedy. Should come with a warning for violence, swearing and emotional scenes that could trigger people.

It's a film written by Tyler Perry - so, of course, it is horrible. He does not know how to write. He does not know how to produce. He does not know dialogue. He does not know character development. He does not know story structure. He does not know logic. How, then, is this man so successful? Please, audiences, stop propping him up. His work is absolutely atrocious. Also, poor Dwayne Johnson. Why is he in this film. ... I mean, it's literally only for a second. But, still ...
