Tyler Perry's movie drama "The family that preys" represents the story of two families that eventually are forced by circumstances to work together and to get along, regardless of the discrepancies that exist in their life style, mentality, and dreams.

The story line is relatively complex in the sense that there are numerous events that take place throughout the film, from marriage, to drama, from happy moments to sad ones. From this point-of-view, the story and the plot itself resembles the complexity of everyday life, with all intricate affairs and developments that usually do take place in people's lives.

The story takes into account both families and the actions and reactions that affect every member of the plot in turn. In this sense, the action follows the story of the Cartwrights on generations, mother and son, with distinct focus on the inner feelings of the mother on the one hand, and the drama the son, William is going through both with Andrea and with his wife who eventually suspects him of cheating. At the same time, the plot is constructed in such a manner that it allows the…
