(1 - 8) of 8 OFCS Rating: 38% Rotten Page   1   2.5/5 "To call The Family That Preys a transitional effort would be accurate and fair"   Filmcritic.com   Bill Gibron D- "It's the same old dance, only now it involves slapping around women...sickening and completely irresponsible."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf C+ "Perry may not be dealing with race issues, but he still writes everything in black-and-white."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 2/4 "Overstuffed and self-indulgent...The Family That Preys is nothing more than a busy-minded, shifty soap opera propelled by its empty-minded sense of indignation."   Movie Eye   Frank Ochieng 1.5/5 "To say that the plot is laboriously constructed is an understatement. The first hour is interminable, filled with dead air that suggests Perry the director was asleep at the switch."   Boxoffice Magazine   John P. McCarthy B+ "It has Tyler Perry's trademark trio: sincerity, spirituality, and story. And if he passes on that other "s" -- subtlety -- that's all right."   Beliefnet   Nell Minow "Religion is important to these characters but the presence of Christianity itself is practically incidental."   Slant Magazine   Rob Humanick 3/4 "A bit slow paced, Perry nevertheless, has proven once again how good of a storyteller he is with 'The Family That Preys'."   BlackFilm.com   Wilson Morales  (1 - 8) of 8 OFCS Rating: 38% Rotten Page   1
