Why Did I Get Married?

There's such an overriding sense of soap opera that I kept expecting a commercial break.

Amid the shout-downs over adultery, male power, and the agony of coping with a child's death, one performance glistens -- Jill Scott's as the sad, heavyset Sheila, who locates the faith that's the source of love.

None of these flaws will matter much to Perry's devoted audiences, whose support has enabled him to virtually build a media empire.

Tyler Perry is not a subtle man.
