Review: 'Peeples' a poor 'Meet the Parents' rip-off

"Peeples" isn't a great title, so you might as well call it "Tyler Perry's Meet the Parents." Perry executive produced this scattershot comedy about Wade , an aspiring children's counselor meeting his girlfriend's uptight father Virgil for the first time.

'Peeples' Review

If you asked me to sum up Craig Robinson's onscreen presence in a word, the one I'd choose is "likable." Even when he's playing a jerk or a heavy - like the bouncer in "Knocked Up" or baseball star Reg Mackworthy on "Eastbound & Down" - his inherent sweetness shines through.

When you think of Robert De Niro and New York, what comes to mind? Blowing up a Little Italy mailbox in Mean Streets, cruising the East Village in Taxi Driver, or ushering Lorraine Bracco down a seedy Brooklyn backstreet in Goodfellas? There is one other neighbourhood where he's left his mark - that of Tribeca.
