Top review. A little better than his others. I just got through seeing Good Deeds. This movie did have that same old monotonous theme the rest of his other movies have. Perry's films tend to focus on grander messages about the nature of a happy and fulfilled life, and this one is no exception.

He's the CEO of his family's software business, lives in a swanky San Francisco apartment, drives a Porsche, and is engaged to a gorgeous woman Gabrielle Union from a just-as-posh family.
But Wesley is just going through the motions to please his overbearing patrician mother Phylicia Rashad and overcompensate for his angry troublemaker of a little brother Brian White when he meets Lindsey Thandiwe Newton , a down-and-out single mother who happens to be the night janitor in his building.
As the two strike an unlikely bond, Wesley realizes everything that he's been missing in life by doing what others expect of him. Perry is such a powerful Hollywood player that he seems able to churn out anything and make a profit. In GOOD DEEDS, he creates yet another "message film" about what it means to have it all but want more not in the material sense, but in the spiritual, life-affirming way Perry specializes in.
He once again surrounds himself with a cast of fine actors, but there's something missing in this movie -- humor. For a filmmaker who started out as a comedian and who's best known for his character in drag Madea , Perry's "dramedies" are heaving on the drama and low on the comedy.
The main problem is that Perry himself, despite his imposing height and size, isn't an actor of gravitas. As his compact on-screen brother, White possesses more of the screen albeit in role that's a bit of a caricature than the 6-foot-5 billionaire does. And as for the romantic subplots, Perry has zero chemistry with either Union or Newton, making any stilted declarations of love whether physical or verbal awkward and uninteresting.
Wesley is just too bland to be a believable leading man, and his story so predictable that the audience knows exactly what will happen the moment Perry and Newton first meet-cute. Families can talk about Good Deeds ' messages about family and fulfillment. Wesley's life seemed perfect, but he wasn't happy -- why?
