Peeples
Overview
An Average Joe crashes a luxurious family gathering in the Hamptons in hopes of asking for his true love's hand in marriage, and learns that even wealthy families have their fair share of quirks in this family comedy from producer Tyler Perry. Wade Walker (Craig Robinson) may not be a blue blood, but he loves Grace (Kerry Washington), and he's eager to propose. Convinced that his best bet is to make his move while Grace's entire family is present, Wade boldly invites himself to her family reunion, and does his best to make a good impression. Over the course of an eventful weekend, he learns that he may fit in better with the dysfunctional yet well-to-do clan than he ever could have anticipated. David Alan Grier, Melvin Van Peebles, and Ana Gasteyer co-star.

Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"Grier plays the part of the pompous patrician with superb finesse and dry wit, easily the movie's highlight." - 05/09/2013 USA Today
3 stars out of 4 -- "Chism's cast is game for her shenanigans, and the biggest pleasure of PEEPLES is watching them cut loose under her direction." - 05/08/2013 Chicago Sun-Times
"PEEPLES is witty, charming and light....Its upbeat freshness is also distinctive from the bitter flavor of so many recent Hollywood rom-coms." - 05/09/2013 Los Angeles Times
"It’s a light and occasionally very funny movie....One of the smartest and most accomplished films to emerge from under the Perry banner." - 05/09/2013 A.V. Club
"[D]riven by the discreet charm of lead Craig Robinson, writer-helmer Tina Gordon Chism’s debut pic deals out generous doses of anarchic hijinks..." - 05/04/2013 Variety
