Boo! A Madea Halloween just isn't very scary and struggles with beating jokes to death like a discarded corpse.

The whole thing eventually devolves into the maelstrom of reactionary moralizing that is Mr. Perry’s specialty, not that any informed viewer would have reason to expect otherwise.

Ultimately, Boo! A Madea Holloween is a comedy with few too laughs, a stilted made-for-TV look, and weak character development.

The director-star's latest has a few old-school laughs, as well as an unassailable message about parents standing up to their children. But it also has a lack of surprise that's almost scary.

Neither the laughs nor the chills are enough to justify this latest screen outing for Perry’s signature character.

The return of Perry’s phenomenally successful character has funny moments but shoddy direction and gay panic jokes make it scary in the wrong way.

Five years ago, my RogerEbert.com colleague Steven Boone and I wrote a very long online piece on Tyler Perry. Neither of us sought to dismiss him, and I expressed much admiration both for how he built his own studio and for how brilliant actresses of color trusted him so passionately with their performances.

The film is chockablock with terrible actors (including Tyga, in a bizarro cameo rapping at a frat party), and the jokes he gives his inferior cast to work with are stinkers.
