Review of Peeples

Peeples (2013)
A Black version of 'Meet the Fockers'
10 May 2013
Warning: Spoilers
I saw "Peeples", starring Craig Robinson-Eastbound & Down-t.v. , Hot Tub Time Machine, Kerry Washington-Scandal-t.v., the Fantastic Four movies, David Alan Grier-Bewitched-2005, In Living Color-t.v. and Diahann Carroll-White Collar-t.v. , Dynasty-t.v..

This is a black version of 'Meet the Fockers'. It is produced, but not directed by Tyler Perry. Craig and Kerry are a couple that have been living together for a year but he has never met her parents-she always makes excuses for some reason. Every year, Kerry goes to visit her parents in the Hamptons for a reunion and a Moby Dick celebration and Craig is never invited; she tells him that he would not enjoy it. This year, Craig decides it's time to meet the Peeples, their last name, and ask Kerry to marry him. David plays her father, a judge that doesn't think anyone is good enough for his little girl and Diahann plays David's mother. The humor is funny but not slap sticky, like some of Tyler's movies can be. It's rated "PG-13" for sexual content-but no nudity, drug material and language and has a running time of 1 hour & 35 minutes. I enjoyed it and would buy it on DVD.
