Danica is a successful worker at a marketing firm, and has been in a relationship with "Charlie", a man she met online a year ago but has never seen in person. When she is sent to pick up her recently-paroled sister Tanya from prison, her mother tells her that Tanya must stay at her house. Tanya is amazed by Danica's apartment and discovers that Danica's ex-fiance Bailey left her for another woman. Tanya thinks Danica is being catfished since she's never seen Charlie. The next day, Tanya and Danica stop by the Brown Bean, a coffee shop next to Danica's work. Frank, the owner, who has a crush on Danica, insists that he will let Tanya work there.

Leave your thoughts about Nobody's Fool.
| The Film StageJohn FinkI still think Perry, who has made 18 feature films, will eventually make his masterpiece of American cinema. This is far from it. |
| Detroit NewsAdam GrahamAn uneven, but forgivable, romantic comedy, Tyler Perry's "Nobody's Fool" is fine once it settles into its groove and decides what it wants to be. |
| Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersEven with all of Haddish's hard work, she still can't clean up the mess she's landed in. |
| BlackFilm.comWilson MoralesWhile there are the usual messages or lessons we get in his films, this one has plenty of laughs mixed in to have you leaving the theater joyfully pleased. Haddish is funny from the get-go, never missing a beat |
| Crooked MarqueeEric D. SniderIt eventually dissolves into the usual Perry morass, where nobody onscreen is behaving like a real person and you spend the last half-hour tapping your foot impatiently while making the "move it along" motion with your hand. |
| Screen ZealotsLouisa MooreTyler Perry's bawdy comedy is an all-over-the-place mess, but at least it's a charming one. |
| Common Sense MediaTara McNamaraPerry's Tiffany Haddish romcom is lewd, crude, pro-pot. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookHaddish brings 'Nobody's Fool' to above-average quality. |
| Jamaica GleanerDamian LevyIt won't stick with you for very long, but at the very least you'll enjoy your night out at the cinema. Tiffany Haddish carries every scene she's in and gives the movie some much-needed energy in it's flattest scenes. |
| Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeFew mainstream romantic comedies are so brazen or as unconvincing in their third acts. As if the movie were embarrassed about the tidy way it wraps things up, it trots Haddish out for a silly coda that reminds us how little we saw of her during the film's final hour. |
