Think Like a Man is rowdy and funny and showcases an immensely likable ensemble cast it uses to delineate its war between the sexes. Read full review

Think Like a Man is what it is. But its hangout factor is considerable, because the actors' charms are considerable. Read full review

Despite the crass book promotion, the overlong film is harmless romantic fun that's well played. Read full review

Richard Corliss

Apr 19, 2012

There's nothing profound going on here; the truisms don't blossom into life-enriching truths. It's more like the person you meet at a bar who, on second glance, is surprisingly attractive. Call Think Like a Man a perfectly satisfactory one-night stand at the movies. Read full review

Marjorie Baumgarten

Apr 25, 2012

The relationship advice is all fairly boilerplate, much like the film itself, but these actors have made this a bankable romcom. Read full review

Roger Ebert

Apr 18, 2012

The result is a tiresome exercise that circles at great length through various prefabricated stories defined by the advice each couple needs (or doesn't need). Read full review

Screenwriters Keith Merryman and David A. Newman interweave four asinine, underdeveloped plot lines, and Tim Story's prosaic direction reduces their script to a shambolic nightmare. Read full review

I'm not black, but it seems many in the media give predominately black movies lower reviews than normal.

Even classics like "Coming to America" are largely left off of greatest comedies of all time lists. It seems if it isn't a slavery movie or some drama to that effect a comedy is underrated.

This movie is funny and lives up to the hype. It is excellent and I'm glad I watched it despite the inaccurate reviews I've read. The entire film is enjoyable and well worth it with the very talented cast with Kevin Hart often stealing the show.

I would say like many rom-coms there is a certain traditional sappiness that comes along to satisfy a female audience, but I found it entertaining. I'll give it a 9, but voted a ten because some of these other reviewers and critics are questionable after seeing it myself.… Expand

Very entertaining and of course funny. Became predictable right away and lacked an element of any surprise or twist. When watching, by a quarter of the way through the movie you'll sit back and just watch because you'll feel like you've seen it before.

Sorry, if Tyler Perry doesn't have anything to do with this is can't not be good. TP is a Hollywood icon and he's making the rules HIS WAY so if you don't like it, then you can just double flip on outta here. Because Hollywood don't tolerate no phonies!
