This time a Wall Street investment banker who has been set up as the linchpin of his company's mob-backed Ponzi scheme is relocated with his family to Aunt Madea's southern home.
In Witness Madea’s jokes fall flat and this time old man Joe, played by Perry as well, has better jokes.
Perry is trying to cross over by bringing in additional white actors to the franchise. Eugene Levy from the American Pie franchise does a decent job but Denise Richards does a poorly in her performance as a throphy wife.
Verdict:
Remember how funny Ernest (Jim Varney) was back in the day until Ernest Goes to Camp, Jail, School, Africa, and the Classic Ernest Goes Stupid came out. This may be the Blueprint Tyler Perry is following for Madea and he will make a lot of money but the movies will not be funny, and Witness Protection is not funny.
