Movie review -- Why did I get married?



Every year, eight friends -- four couples -- meet for a one week holyday to explore their marriages. Based on their experiences, Dr. Patricia Agnew, wrote a best selling book on marriages.

Marcus, played by Michael Jai White

The touch of Taylor Perry is quite obvious throughout the entire movie, but it is necessary for the viewer to be familiar with the previous works of Perry in order to identify this. The performances of the actors are quite impressive; they all seem natural and convince the audience of the reality of the characters.
