Nobody's Fool
This is a romantic comedy that has its funny moments, largely due to a star-studded cast including Tiffany Haddish ('Girls Trip') and Whoopi Goldberg (who needs no introduction, right?). Unfortunately, the end result is uninspired and confusing. It's worth it for the good laughs, thanks largely to the impeccable acting of the protagonists.
A Fall from Grace
This movie is written and directed by Tyler Perry, considered one of the most influential directors, producers, and actors in cinema, television, and theater in the United States (creator, among other things, of the character Madea and her long series of films). 'A Fall from Grace' follows the structure of a procedural thriller, so be prepared to witness an entire case from investigation (and the discovery of dark secrets) to the trial itself, in the style of the classic series 'Law & Order'. The cast is made up of stars such as Crystal Fox ('Big Little Lies'), Phylicia Rashad ('Creed') and Mehcad Brooks ('Supergirl'), among others, who present performances at the level of intensity required by the script.
A Madea Homecoming
The successful comedian Tyler Perry returns here to Madea, a character who began her journey in theater in 1999 and who in 2005 got the cinematic version in 'Diary of a Mad Black Woman'. In 'A Madea Homecoming', which carries the exclusive Netflix seal, we follow the character preparing to receive the family at her grandson's graduation. Of course, Perry returns to play the lovable mama and also Joe. Again, the story guarantees good laughs with a fun script. If you want to watch something lively and light, this is the choice.
