Synopsis

Following the success of his previous films 'Diary of a Mad Black Woman,' 'Madea's Family Reunion' and 'Daddy's Little Girls,' Tyler Perry returns with his fourth feature film, 'Why Did I Get Married?'. Stepping in front of the camera for the first time since 'Madea's Family Reunion,' Perry stars alongside a talented ensemble cast that includes Janet Jackson, Malik Yoba, Jill Scott, Sharon Leal, Tasha Smith, Michael Jai White, Denise Boutte and Lamann Rucker.

A big-screen adaptation of Perry's hit stage play of the same title, 'Why Did I Get Married?' is an intimate story about the difficulty of maintaining a solid love relationship in modern times. During a trip to the picturesque snowcapped mountains of Colorado, eight married college friends have gathered for their annual seven-day reunion. But the cozy mood is shattered when the group comes face-to-face with one pair’s infidelity. As secrets are revealed, each couple begins questioning the validity of their own marriage. Over the course of the weekend, husbands and wives take a hard look at their lives, wrestling with issues of commitment, betrayal and forgiveness as they seek a way forward. -
