Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): L.B states that Brenda is a product of his father's old ways, long before he married the mother of Leroy, Vera and himself. However, this would make Brenda older than the three of them, and it is clearly obvious (and also stated) that Brenda is the youngest of them all. moreQuotes:
Brenda Brown: I can pay you back now... for all you did for us. The house, the move... everything.Harry: You don't get it, do you?
Brenda Brown: Get what?
Harry: I didn't do all of that so you could pay me back.
Brenda Brown: I'm sorry. I'm just so used to being taken advantage of and...
Harry: Yeah, that you don't even know when somebody loves you!
Brenda Brown: Love me?
Harry: Yeah. Tell Mike i said congratulations.
Brenda Brown: Hey, what if i told you i love you too? But, i got scared for a second. But I'd rather be scared and with you, then be not scared and not have you.
Harry: Why would i scare you?

Wow, I could see how SOME people would've thought this movie was horrible, but a 2.5 rating and so many negative comments?NO!!!!!This movie was great.It wasn't as funny as the other Tyler Perry movies, and it wasn't the best, but hey, it's certainly not the worst, and it is certainly not horrible AT ALL.It was actually really entertaining to watch, and even though it was SO cliché, it was still very enjoyable, and overall a great way to spend some time when you're bored.I even found the Madea scene one of the best scenes in here, and even though I wish there would've been more of her, people better be appreciative that they put some of her in Meet The Browns.Well, I will say don't let anything stop you from seeing this movie if you want to, and if you decide not to see it, your loss.
