At The Movies: Madea Goes To Jail Trailer


Tyler Perry keeps cranking them out...

At long last, Madea returns to the big screen in TYLER PERRY'S MADEA GOES TO JAIL. This time Americas favorite irreverent, pistol-packin grandmomma is raising hell behind bars and lobbying for her freedom...Hallelujer! After a high-speed freeway chase puts Madea (TYLER PERRY) in front of the judge, her reprieve is short-lived as anger management issues get the best of her and land her in jail. A gleeful Joe (TYLER PERRY) couldnt be happier at Madeas misfortune. But Madea's eccentric family members the Browns (DAVID and TAMALA MANN) rally behind her, lending their special 'country' brand of support. Meanwhile, Assistant District Attorney Joshua Hardaway (DEREK LUKE) is on the fast track to career success. But Hardaway lands a case too personal to handle - defending young prostitute and former drug addict Candace Washington (KEISHA KNIGHT PULLIAM) - and asks his fiancée and fellow ADA Linda Holmes (ION OVERMAN) to fill in on his behalf. When Candace ends up in jail, Madea befriends the young woman, protecting her in a 'motherly' way as only Madea can.

The movie is set to be released in theaters on February 20, 2009. Tickets and Showtimes (when available) can be obtained by going here: http://tinyurl.com/madeagoestojail

Comic superstar and three-time Emmy Award-winner Chris Rock stars in his fifth solo HBO stand-up performance. Kill The Messenger features Chris Rock from three international performances - at South Africa's Carnival City Casino, London's Carling
Apollo Hammersmith and New York's legendary Apollo Theater - where he delivers his unique, adults-only take on dozens of social, political and celebrity issues. This 3-disc Special Edition contains nearly 5 hours of exclusive bonus features: Rock's uncut performances from Johannesburg, London and New York, Behind-the-scenes footage from all 3 shows, and exclusive interview with Chris Rock.

Four years after 2004's NEVER SCARED, Chris Rock returns with another hilarious standup performance in KILL THE MESSENGER. Intercutting between performances held in South Africa, London, and New York City, the program finds Rock riffing on the upcoming 2008 presidential election, Barack Obama, and (as always) the troubles between men and women. It's fascinating to watch how Rock improvises with each crowd, and their differing reactions. Thankfully, the effect never becomes tiresome or overdone, and as always it's Rock's passionate delivery, razor-sharp timing, and fearless take on life that take center stage.
