"It's the same old dance, only now it involves slapping around women...sickening and completely irresponsible."

"Perry may not be dealing with race issues, but he still writes everything in black-and-white."

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

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."

Nell Minow
"Religion is important to these characters but the presence of Christianity itself is practically incidental."
Slant Magazine

3/4
"A bit slow paced, Perry nevertheless, has proven once again how good of a storyteller he is with 'The Family That Preys'."
