Tyler Perry’s the Family That Preys
This is a good family flick that tooshie show the viewers how near people prey on one another. This movie reminded me of the generation my brother and I didnt get along. It shows how different families are and how they treat one another. Sadly this movie also shows how family members can be so ice-cold blooded. This movie duplicates real life situations where innocent People get hurt, family loyalty gets divided and couples end up in divorce. This movie is centered on deuce main couples and a few supporting characters. Chris & Andrea This couple is different than most in galore(postnominal) ways.Andrea, the married woman character is all most cash and force unwrap and thinks only astir(predicate)(predicate) herself. Chris is a wicked working husband who deeds as a construction worker for Cartwright inc. the same accompany his wife works for. Chris and Andrea were right out of college when they married. As time goes on, you can cod that neither Chris nor Andrea lived their life for the lord, both allowed themselves to become too busy to go to church. Chris still hung onto his moral philosophy remaining a faithful husband and a loving father. However Andrea, un the like Chris was flirting from the day they got married with Mr.Cartwright who became their boss. During the four years of their marriage she was acquire large bonuses for carrying on an affair with Mr. Cartwright. These three characters obviously live without God and do things of a worldly nature in their life. I think Chris and Andrea could guard had a blessed marriage and a good life had they let God lead them. Andrea behind her husband Chriss back is hiding the money that Mr. Cartwright has been giving her over the years. Chris while at the bank one day finds out that his wife Andrea has a separate account with 286. 00. 00. This is example is a lesson on trust within a marriage.This couple is shown to be the opposite of Chris and Andrea. Ben and Pam are loving and close, they wor k on their marriage and communicate and often talk about GOD. They have traditional values and both work hard for their money and the things they have. Ben, like Chris is a hard working construction employee for the Cartwrights. Bens wife Pam work for her suffer Alice at the family business, a place called awing and a prayer diner.Pam is a good supportive wife to Ben and she works hard and has great respect for her mother. Pam is a faithful devoted wife to her husband Ben. They have problems of their own, both work long hours laboring hard with little net but, they trust in the Lord to solve their problems and see them through. Their marriage and their life shows they have deep faith and are grateful for what blessing they have, and you can see that they are satisfied. Alice & Char tummyte These are the two mothers of the movie. Alice is the mother of two filles Pam, Andrea.At one point you see Alice and Pam talking to Andrea when Chris confronts her about the money in the accoun t and he learns of her affair with William Cartwright, her mother and sister try to explain that nothing good can come out of hurting others. Andrea believes that because of her affair William enjoys her and will leave his wife and choose a life with her. Her mother Alice warns her that he wont leave his wife and wonders out loud where she went so wrong with Andrea. Charlotte, who is mostly called Mrs. Cartwright, is the mother of William Cartwright, the son that is having the affair with Andrea.Alice tries to live right and goes to church and choir practice and carries her Bible with her everywhere she goes. Through the movie Alice and her daughter Pam are shown abeting out this down and out man whose name is Nick. They provide him with clean clothes, free meals and a place to wash up. When asked by her daughter why they do this for this man, Alice reminds her daughter Pam You Never When You Might Be Entertaining an Angel. Charlotte, Mrs. Cartwright finds out she has a problem th at the doctor tell her about. The doctors tell her she had early onset Alzheimers.Without manduction her health information she asks Alice to take a trip across the United States heading west. She buys a 1959 Cadillac to drive on the trip. She wants to feel alive and have caper before the Alzheimers sets in. They travel through some(prenominal) states during their trip. While its her turn to drive Alice stops by a river and encourages Charlotte to get saved by being baptized in a river. Charlotte stops by a bar and has fun drinking and dancing, but Alice being a Christian doesnt want anything to do with that stuff.The trip ends when Charlotte has an episode and Alice learns she has Alzheimers and wants to go home. While away Charlottes son William tries to stab his mother in the back and fall behind her early from her own company. This is a sad example of power and money being a priority more than family love and loyalty. William is definitely controlled by the secular world. Ch arlotte has a surprise her friend Alice has been buying stock from Nick, who although is now going through a rough time once was a stock investor for Cartwrights inc. and William fired him.Nick, Pam and Alice attend a board meeting, the very same one William is using to try and retire his own mother. Alice announces that with Nick and Alices share she has again controlling interest and fires her back stabbing son William. Pam learns at this meeting in a round- about way that her mother Alice who is hard working isnt poor but actually a millionaire. It sadly shows Charlotte near the end of the movie taking her medication out of the bathroom cabinet and we gather that she takes an dose as the movie shows Alice crying and it goes to Charlottes funeral.Alice being a true friend she toughs it out and sings at her friends funeral a song about if given a chance to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance. This movie brought a lot of stuff to my attention that had gone on in my family growi ng up. Alice had two daughters that didnt see eye to eye on anything. It made me stop and think about how my brother and I were with our mother. This movie held so much feeling in it offering the viewer a wide range of emotions.I think if more families would sit together and stay many of Tyler Perrys movies they would get a great deal of family value out of them. Not only does Tyler Perry make movies for entertainment and enjoyment he can take a viewer to the heart of the real issue. I have watched a lot of Tylers movies but this hits home for me because it uses things like Secular secular humanism, Suffering, and turning your back on a loved one like a evil person. I could pick up on many of the worlds issues today, in this movie. This movie meant so much to me personally I had to share it with my family.I stopped to think about the suffering some families go through in life trying to get ahead and how sometimes its because they step on one another to do it, like William trying t o retire his mother behind her back. What happened to the old days when people like Alice and Pam were raised to do for those less fortunate than you, even if they might be your own family. When did the world become so self centered, selfish and uncaring of humanity like Andrea. I really relate to what Alice shared with her daughter Pam, you never know when you could be entertaining an Angel. It might be a stranger or it could even be a member of your family, you should be respectful and kind of all people. I wish more of the families today could go back to the time when families really cared for each other. More and more of todays family members help one another only to expect something in return or they use it against you. It hurts when I look at what has happened to familys values today. In many families kids have no respect for their parents, brother and Sisters fight sometimes carrying it on for years.I see how people today dont care about feelings or what will happen to the o ther person. People of today are all about getting that almighty dollar, they let their lives and attitudes be obsessed with money. galore(postnominal) people, like some of the characters in this movie think that the more money you have the more power you will have. Andrea in this movie was snooty and acted as if she was so much better than her sister or her mother, William assumed that because Charlotte was his mother and he was her son that he would one day be the leader of her company like she owed the position to him.If more people would read and live by the Bible families would have less trouble than they have. God and prayer have to be the foundation for a family to be and remain close, loving and respectful of each other. Those that choose to live for God think and act more righteously, out of their love and respect for God comes love and respect for others. I was raised very old fashioned where families were families and you cared, loved, and watched out for each other. I h ave seen a lot people say that they are helping their family are there staying with them.
