lciayi0908 The title express the entire story where five women from different backgrounds unite to one club base on same issue - to raise their kids on themselves. Certainly this is a fair piece of support to those with the same situations so that you will never feel alone and I think this is also the main message of the entire movie - support needed when you are having difficulties in life. However, the plot is kind of predictable and there is no key of excitement at all even the child missing part might be the intended climax but fail to do so. Overall it is still a touching piece if you are experiencing the same issue especially the confrontation scene between the mother and child, when they express their true feeling of love.

atlastu2 Until now no movie has ever come close to the first wives club to talk about single wives In a nice simple and moving way. and this one is so depressing andboring. such bad acting and bad dialougs Tyler Perry's movies keeps getting more awful. such waste of time. I was stuck for two hours watching really bad movie On the laptop. The actors in the film were at their worst ever.very bad combination if actors they completely don't fit together. very lame story. Terrible in every way. such naiive and stupid story. I couldn't wait for it to be over.

Jack Higginbotham You know when the funniest thing in your movie is Terry Crews, you have a problem. I have not seen a film considered a comedy drama make me groan so much at the comedy and laugh so much at the drama. Its a spectacular achievement for Tyler Perry and it makes me wonder if his other movies have also 'achieved' this.The story is a mess, it has no idea what its doing. One minute they focus on the Moms having to do a fund-raising thing (I think, I wasn't very interested)and then they just drop that all together and decide its going to be a fun comedy about 'The Single Moms Club', but then it drops that and decides to be a serious Drama with all the clichés that goes into those. Its insane how much this film jumps around and by the end you have no idea what you watched.The comedy is non existent. The jokes aren't quick, witty and to the point, they are long, drawn out shtick about sex. Its just awful, they dedicate about two minutes to a joke between one of the couples (I don't care who they are) and its basically two minutes of innuendo about him being able to 'pound' and he has loads of 'wood' ...hahahaha get it, because he's a contractor or something and it can also relate to sex, ha-ha its hilarious, no its not, its lazy humor and I wanted to stick pins in my ears because the sound of blood gushing would be funnier than this trash.The characters are the definition of one dimensional, I don't think I learned one thing about them besides their character traits and even then I have a hard time remembering them because they were so boring. The male leads are either made out to be evil, sweat or just try hards, they get about as much development as the womens handbags, one of the men isn't even developed with a trait, he's a name, he's in the movie then he's out and never mentioned again. Don't even get me started on the kids.The drama is just as horrible as the comedy. Its just a different cliché for each woman to go through, all are estranged from their kids, one cannot raise her own child because she's an idiot , ones an uptight businessman who doesn't have time for her kid, one is trying to keep her son from going to jail and blah blah blah, boring boring boring. It's just going through the motions of a drama without any build up or emotional connection, when you add the shaky plot and horrendous comedy, the drama becomes even more diluted in the mess.None of it makes any sense either. I never feel like one scene goes into the next, everything feels like A to B to C and it never feels like human beings are talking and any of what's going on is real, it feels fake. Relationships are started within seconds, ideas are started and then stopped and things seemed to be mentioned and then never mentioned again, as if everything that happens in a scene is confined to that one scene and nowhere else in the film.Overall, If you want a film that shows strong, funny women who have chemistry in a film with a coherent plot, watch Bridesmaids, don't give this film the time of day it doesn't deserve.

niutta-enrico What's wrong with you guys? A good comedy with a nice story, funny jokes and brilliant performances… how many movies of this kind have been made? Why rate it so low (3,8 at the moment I'm writing)?Well I think that this movie is OK, the girls are sexy (some of them to be precise), males are nice (most of them), kids are small, smart, endearing kids and the overall result is a well written, heartwarming comedy.Don't be fooled by the low rating which I think it's going to get higher. I'd give it a 6,5 but since this is impossible, I'll give it a solid 7, just to start.
