| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanGeorge's son asks for Wi-Fi, and Madea says, ''Sure, I can make you a waffle.'' That's one of the good jokes. |
| Slant MagazineCalum MarshThe film remains buoyed by the same open heart that makes Tyler Perry's best work so endearing. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeHis best and most agreeable Madea comedy. |
| Screen It!Teddy DurginIt might be the worst of the various films in which the writer-producer-director-actor dons the wig, house dress, and fat suit of his titular alter ego. And that's saying a lot! (Full Content Review for Parents also available) |
| TheWrapAlonso DuraldeIt wastes the talents of not just Eugene Levy and Doris Roberts but of Perry himself, whose cross-dressing creation Madea has often been the saving comedic grace of Perry's films. |

| SSG SyndicateSusan GrangerThe frantic seventh installment in this highly successful comedy franchise is filled with throwaway gags and self-conscious scenes. |
