Trailer
Why watch this film?
A psychological thriller by Tyler Perry (director of A Fall From Grace and the Madea films). Mea Culpa follows an ambitious criminal defense lawyer (Kelly Rowland, former member of Destiny’s Child) who takes on the controversial case of a charismatic artist (Trevante Rhodes, Moonlight) accused of murdering his girlfriend. However, as she delves into his world, his case, and his life, the lines between professionalism, friendship, and eroticism begin to blur, with fatal consequences. Although at times it aspires to the status of old erotic thrillers from the '80s and '90s (it even seems like an inverted version of Basic Instinct or Fatal Attraction), it doesn't reach those levels. However, if you're looking for something in that style, Mea Culpa might be for you.

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.

A Jazzman's Blues
Tyler Perry, director of 'The Limit of Betrayal' and a very well-known actor from the Madea franchise, takes on the role here of bringing a period drama. Set in the American South after World War II, we follow a young black jazz musician in search of success. The film spans a period of 50 years, giving a deep dive into the tragic lives and situations that shape their lives. Perry does very well with the melodrama and creates a great involvement of the viewer. It is a dense and intriguing historical production.

Tyler Perry’s Divorce in the Black
Divorce in the Black is a film that follows the style of all the productions written and directed by filmmaker and producer Tyler Perry. It's a soap opera-like style, with many ups and downs, slightly exaggerated performances, and situations that leave you questioning the paths of that story. Here, Ava, a young banker, is devastated when her husband abandons their marriage. She is determined to fight until fate intervenes, revealing the wicked acts that once sabotaged Ava's destiny to connect with her soulmate. A suspenseful drama with Perry's signature, with all the flaws and hits we've seen in his productions.

The Peasants
The Peasants is an animated film by the same directors of Loving Vincent, using the same innovative technique, which could be described as "oil-painted rotoscopy". Based on the Nobel Prize-winning novel The Peasants (1904) by Władysław Reymont, it's a tale of desire and revenge told in four episodes, one for each season of the year. The story, set in Poland at the turn of the 20th century, follows a young peasant woman who wreaks havoc by marrying an older, wealthy man, whose son also desires her, despite being married. It is a powerful and bleak, although conventional tale about violence and misogyny, somewhat overshadowed by its beautiful and prodigious visual execution.

Suite Française
Set in France during 1940, Suite Française follows beautiful Lucile Angellier who awaits news from her husband, a prisoner of war, whilst leading a stifled existence with her mean, controlling mother-in-law. When Parisian refugees pour into their small town, soon followed by a regiment of German soldiers who take up residence in the villagers' homes, Lucile’s life is turned upside down. In the Angellier home, Lucile initially tries to ignore Bruno, the handsome and refined German officer who has been posted to live with them. But soon, a powerful love draws them together and traps them in the tragedy of war.
