Tyler Perry Presents Peeples

When meeting your girlfriend's family for the first time, it's important to establish dominance early by shanking the patriarch.

Unfortunately, the bewildered beau in this comedy didn't stab the dad.

Slighted that his girlfriend Grace (Kerry Washington) didn't invite him up to the Hamptons for her family reunion, Wade (Craig Robinson) surprises her by showing up.

Welcomed by her mother (Diahann Carroll), a former singer, Grace's sister (Kali Hawk), a secret lesbian, and her brother (Tyler James Williams), a wannabe rock star, Wade's only holdout is her father (David Alan Grier).

What's worse, everything he does to impress Mr. Peeples ends up an unmitigated disaster.

A blatant and woefully unfunny rip-off of Meet the Parents, Peeples is perforated with Tyler Perry's brand of dime store family psychology and preachy principles.

Besides, if your girlfriend can afford the Hamptons, the real family member you have to win over is the nanny.
