Confessions of a Marriage Counselor is sort of a mixed bag, for all the positives-the negatives are equally as glaring. For instance, I liked the acting from the trio of leads and I appreciated the paced storyline that intermingled comedy and high drama, but the third act revelations come off a bit harsh and make the finger waving religious context even more flagrant. However it is also Perry’s most accomplished screenplay to date and a move into a more serious realm as an artist. I would love to see what a more sure-handed director could do with one of Tyler Perry’s scripts. His greatest talent lies on the page, makes you wish he would get out of his own way.
