Synopsis
Tyler Perry revives his signature character, the tough and vindictive — but oddly nurturing — Mabel “Madea” Simmons. In his latest film, which marks the 11th appearance of the long-running character, Madea and her family head to the backwoods of Georgia for a family reunion. The trip turns into a nightmare, however, when the get-together turns into a funeral, and an opportunity for old family secrets to be brought into the open. Perry writes and directs, and A Meadea Family Funeral also features the talents of Cassi Davis, Patrice Lovely, Ciera Payton, KJ Smith, David Otunga, and Rome Flynn.

emma ❦Mar 21, 2019"I do not need a forty-year-old white dude to tell me what didn’t work for him about..." -Brie Larson (NIF) - 2019 Ranked: https://boxd.it/2lsbC Oh good, that will save me a lot of time.
{Todd}Aug 23, 2019I appreciate the fact that most of this movie is just Tyler Perry talking to himself in different outfits.

Why is this more of a day-time soap opera than a comedy? Tyler Perry is a great comedy writer... not a drama writer... just, no. List: 2019: Ranked
PaddyFeb 28, 2019Yep. Felt that runtime.
Late Movie ReviewsMar 2, 2019I want someone to love me as much as the woman in the back of the theater who screamed “LORD TAKE ME NOW” when Tyler Perry stepped onscreen as Brian. Anyways, this was fine. Perry’s typical mix of flat, sitcom-esque camerawork and overly wrought, melodramatic plotting…

We have reached transcendence - A Madea Funeral at AMC Kips Bay 15 ran with sound but no picture for 10 mins, and nobody could find a projectionist or employee to report the issue. Automatic programmed projectors presenting ART. Machines have eclipsed man. Prepare for the…
Brian Haver-ScanlonJan 24, 2026Another funny Madea story that does what all of the other films do! Nothing more to say!If you enjoy Madea you’ll enjoy this! This one unfortunately isn’t as funny as the rest but still enjoyable . So much family drama in this. Still very good but not the best Madea…
𝐙𝐨𝐞 🌤️🍂Mar 1, 2019i just scrolled through the other reviews for this and saw a lot of people genuinely reviewing and critiquing literally “a madea family funeral” and commenting on things like plot structure and screenplay..... the electric chair isn’t a harsh enough punishment.

- Stoofman likedA Madea Family Funeral
It was a fun movie, again, nothing super special, but it was ok overall. The thing I didn’t like was the ending and how the situation was dealt with, but that isn’t really impacting “my rating,” it’s just that in comparison to some other ones it was ok, not terrible, but ok
Hellen likedA Madea Family FuneralBye this is funny asf 😭😭. I like how they still had the drama storylines but infused it with comedy, because before it was like madea for comedy and then the drama separately. Anyways this was probably one of the better madea movies, definitely recommend!
- likedA Madea Family Funeral3.5/5 The end and the end credits saved it. This one felt like one of Tyler Perry’s weaker Madea movies. But majority of it was funny and the mom ate.

I’m glad I only paid $4.
TJTasha JonesThere is no bigger Tyler perry fan then me, so it pains me to say this movie was boring and predictable. Same story slightly different cast. Honestly I would wait for it to come out on dvd
SGSonya Greenlaughter from beginning to end

Not at all what I usually expect from a Medea movie.
MBmark bernalglad I got my ticket for $4
SOS. O.Tyler Perry's work is definitely changing and not in a good or wholesome way.

Don’t watch in theater waste of money
KGKeDedra GreeneFunniest Movie Ever ‼️‼️ You Have To See!
KDKenea Deklesome funny moments but short lived, too much talking about nonsense, and over the top reactions. Honestly most of the movie i became irritated, especially within the first 5 minutes. Disappointed that this is the last movie and this was the best we get.

You could fault A Madea Family Funeral for its many other shortcomings. It runs about 30 minutes too long; the tempo of the numerous dramatic scenes is on par with drying paint; characters lack consistency from scene to scene; the dialogue sounds like a first draft that needs major editing; its occasional technical sloppiness; and so forth.

Wherever you find yourself in the Perry equation, Medea herself deserves a final high-five. Perry hints that she may come back in a younger version, not played by him. But Medea will never be the same without her creator. In A Medea Family Funeral, she hosts a memorial service that defines the term hellzapoppin. And Perry correctly and adoringly gives her the last word in which she lets all the women have for letting any damn man abuse them. Hallelujah, sister!

Perry doesn't even try to successfully integrate the story's comedic and dramatic elements, merely toggling back and forth between them as if in need of mood stabilizers.
