Beautifully written as usual boss! I loved your detailed analysis and the way you found facts to buttress your points. I have found out through many arguments though, that guys tend to share your opinion..supporting Robert, while women tend to support Mel. This is a natural reaction because it simply means we all put ourselves in the shoes of the characters that we understand better.

To me, Acrimony was kinda paradoxical. It started on a build up that got us disliking the guy. As for ladies, we put ourselves in the lady's shoes...how used would i feel if i had to foot the bills for my man for endless years working 3 jobs and not having a life? Especially when the man himself is lazy and wouldn't try to do anything else or get any temp job? Yes he believed in his dreams and his invention was brilliant but the man was supposed to make an effort to protect and provide for his wife! He let her work all those jobs night and day and kept spending everything she earned, blowing up the electricity by working at home and accumulating a lot of bills!

Yes she had an anger problem which was terrible and detrimental to her health but think about it, they already had a history that built distrust! The guy was actually collecting all of her money fresh after her Mum's death yet was cheating on his golden hen that had been laying golden eggs with another woman!! Haba! She had siblings and family members that didn't understand the guy's attitude as well and so they egged her on to break up. She breaks up with him and then he hits it big making millions with the help of the same lady he cheated with in the past???! Come on! Of all women, it had to be the one he had been caught with in the past?! Really?

To say na me too, I go vex big time. But instead of going bonkers, I would simply take the 10 million he gave me and invest 7.5 million then spend the remaining 2.5 million on myself and my sisters making us all happy and starting a new life with a new outlook....imagine the kind of amazing guys she could have met and started a new love story with! I hated the end of the movie, they made her become a raving lunatic and that was not fair. She had endured hell for the guy! She was angry and jealous but he caused it with his previous cheating and intensely lazy/laidback nature. His actions spoke louder than his words saying he cared nothing for anything apart from his invention. The final straw was abandoning the truck because of the call for an interveiw...after his wife's family had done everything to help and had told him it would cost them terribly if he didn't deliver! He didn't even have the decency to call them to tell them to come take over the truck and make the delivery! Lawd! What incredible selfishness!! I usually love Tyler Perry's works but this one left me feeling cold inside! Twas brilliant though
