Official 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.
Um, who cares? Isn’t the world done with Tyler Perry, already?

I’m really really excited about this movie. Me being a HUGE HUGE Janet Jackson fan I cant wait to see her. It’s been awhile since she’s done a movie and she’s an amazing actress so I cant wait for October 12th!! I would have liked to see some of the characters in the movie on the poster, but its simple, different and I like the question mark upside down.
