Temptation




An exploration of the intrigue and perils of infidelity, Tyler Perry's Temptation is a compelling love story that dives straight into the heart of obsessive passion. “It's about a woman who starts to get restless in her relationship and her choice to be with another man has a huge effect on the rest of her life," explains screenwriter/producer/director Tyler Perry. "She goes on a journey – in her career and in her marriage – and she ends up in a very different place than she expected." In a departure from his previous dramas, this explosive film finds Perry exploring the nature of desire – and just how powerful and dangerous a taste of the forbidden can be. "This is definitely one of the most provocative movies – sexually and otherwise – that I've made," says the director. "There are a lot of people who struggle in their relationships. They make bad choices about their marriages. They get divorced. And so many of them don't step out of their situation and really think about the consequences of what they're doing. This movie asks, 'Are you sure you want to do this?’ It sends up a flag."

This was pretty much another textbook Tyler Perry movie without Madea. It's great character drama where the small group of characters are very well developed and you are interested in where they will go based on their decisions/actions. For awhile it was actually less melodramatic than most of his other fare without any major incidents that the characters had to deal with but then it kind of ended up going that way anywho.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has liked Tyler Perry's previous movies like this. It's different in that its mostly about desire and thinking the grass is greener on the other side instead of the usual rising above/redemption kind of stuff.
