It was aiiiiiiiight! Only ones carried the film was Kerry Washington and the dark skinned fat chick. I will say it was definitely better than his last movie.

I will give Tyler Perry praise for bringing an unknown chapter about black women in the military during World War II to the forefront.The standout performances and characters are Lena Derriecott King portrayed by Ebony Obsidian and Major Charity Adams portrayed by Kerry Washington. The racism the women faced and the task of trying to sort and deliver undelivered mail from families,wives and fiances are displayed in an involving way. Perry blends in some moving moments as the movie plays out.
The other characters from the Battalion are sidelined for the most part,their backgrounds are just touched on and they make exclamations about this or that. Knowing what Perry leans into in his movies there was a story thread that was predictable right at the first frames of the movie.There is a plainness that surrounds the film reminding me of documentaries that throw in some reenactments and then right back to real footage of the era the documentary is about. Still a nice tribute to 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion
Scale of 1 to 10 a 7½
