Is that the actual title of the film in the thread title?

Yes. "For Colored Girls..." seems to be the official shortened version of the long title.

I have yet to muster the desire to see even a frame of any Tyler Perry movie, but if the small dose of his TV show is any indication, then I need to stay the f*** away from this crap.

As far as the language being incomprehensible, I don't know what to say. I understood it with no problem at all.
Basically For Colored Girls is just The Wiz, without the music.



Both are boorishly bombastic films, and are both horrible adaptations of their source material.

I love The Wiz, so perhaps I should watch this.

Introducing the For Colored Girls drinking game!
  • Every time somebody cries, you have to drink a shot.
  • Every time Whoopi says the name "Elnohim", you have to drink a shot.
  • Every time somebody is wearing a green scarf, you have to drink a shot.
  • Every time there is a freakish close up of Janet Jackson, you have to drink a shot.
  • Every time Loretta Devine says the word "stuff", you have to drink a shot.

Play this game, and you'll have a guaranteed BAC of at least .20 by the time the two hours and twenty minutes of the movie are over!

I saw it last night. I think it was Tyler Perry's greatest movie.

From the picture you posted in this thread (which is just in bad taste, and that's being nice. I 'd actually probably use a few other words to describe it) you probably wouldn't watch any of Perry's movies, no matter how good they were.
