Tyler Perry's I Can Do Bad All By Myself

(Running time: 113 Minutes) Rated PG-13
Starring: Taraji P. Henson, Adam Rodriguez, Tyler Perry, and Mary J. Blige

I usually cover Tyler Perry movies, but this one is for adults only. The themes: child abandonment, child sexual abuse, infidelity and alcoholism are strictly for adults. While this is an excellent film with strong messages, teens should see Fame instead.

Watch the movie trailer

    I’m not sure why this movie is PG-13 except that the mother dies in the beginning. The rest of the movie is a lovely story of an imperfect father who hasn’t been around much for child rearing learning to cope alone with his young son and his teenage son by another marriage.
    As sweet as this movie is, it is a story for adults, not for kids. The issues are all about how the father, Joe (Owen) handles his young son Artie, and how they both grieve for the lost mom while learning to get along with each other.
    Then son Harry comes from England to join his father and half-brother in Australia. We see Joe go through another transition learning to care for this son he hasn’t seen in eight or nine years. Joe manages all this while trying to hold down a demanding job as a sports journalist.
    The Boys are Back is a sad story that ends happily. Still, it’s mostly about the transition of the father and would probably not interest most teens. With no violence or sex and only a little bad language, it should be okay for parents and teens 12 and up. Bring Kleenex.
