Synopsis:
A single mother living in inner city Chicago, Brenda has been struggling for years to make ends meet and keep her three kids off the street. But when she’s laid off with no warning, she starts losing hope for the first time – until a letter arrives announcing the death of a father she’s never met. Desperate for any kind of help, Brenda takes her family to Georgia for the funeral. But nothing could have prepared her for the Browns, her father’s fun-loving, crass Southern clan. In a small-town world full of long afternoons and country fairs, Brenda struggles to get to know the family she never knew existed…and finds a brand new romance that just might change her life.

CRITIC REVIEWS
LEW IRWIN
Like previous Tyler Perry movies, Meet the Browns was not screened for critics -- at least not in the U.S. Philip Marchand of the Toronto Star either attended a press screening or a preview not intended for the likes of himself. "Viewers at the screening I attended laughed uproariously" at one of the character's malapropisms, he writes. "To this hilarity I remained indifferent," he added, "and [also] to Perry's manipulation of plot for maximum emotional effect." Nevertheless, he concludes, "It would take a stony critic, however, to dismiss entirely the movie's tribute to the virtues of perseverance and generosity."
