    L.A. Weekly

    This snail-paced film might as well take place in the 1950s, since it seems to have been inspired by one those Hollywood melodramas in which one company employs the entire town, and the only places free of corruption are the church and the local diner.

    While it's wonderful to see actresses as shamefully underemployed as Woodard and Bates on the big screen, even they can't make sense of [these] incoherent characters.

    Orlando Sentinel
    September 15, 2008

    The Family that Preys shows grand advances in the filmmaking education of playwright-turned-filmmaker Tyler Perry. It's also his soapiest film yet, an overwrought melodrama of sibling rivalry, infidelity, family business power plays and terminal illness.

    Washington Post

    By far the best thing about the enterprise is Woodard. If she's not in this thing, I think it goes kaput.

    Los Angeles Times
    September 15, 2008

    The film takes off when Woodard's and Bates' characters go on a Thelma & Louise-style road trip.

    Boston Globe

    The movie plays almost exactly like four daily soap episodes stitched together.

    Whatever its other sins, the movie cannot be accused of wanting for ambition or scope.

    Cinematical
    December 17, 2009

    Exactly the kind of preachy, pandering, tone-shifting, gospel-laced soap opera that [Perry has] served up time and time again to his dedicated audience.

    Sin Magazine
    October 08, 2008

    I appreciate what Perry is trying to do with his films, and it's nice to see an urban film that isn't a "Gangsta Picture", but he needs to tone down the soap opera qualities and let his stories unfold naturally.

    San Antonio Express-News
    September 29, 2008

    (Tyler) Perry, a cinematic one-man band who wrote the script, produces, directs and plays the role of a decent husband and construction worker, is still growing as a filmmaker.

    To call The Family That Preys a transitional effort would be accurate and fair

    Beliefnet
    September 19, 2008

    It has Tyler Perry's trademark trio: sincerity, spirituality, and story. And if he passes on that other "s" -- subtlety -- that's all right.
