At this point, you should know to expect messy shenanigans whenever Tyler Perry releases anything, especially if it’s starring A-list talent like Kelly Rowland and Trevante Rhodes.
While some fans enjoyed the film, others roasted the film to oblivion in one of the funniest movie release weekends in recent memory.
But that didn’t stop Tyler and Kelly Rowland from celebrating the film trending at #1 on Netflix.
Also worth noting is Netflix’s impeccable Mea Culpa marketing campaign that included screening events in major cities, aesthetically pleasing activations, and Strong Black Lead’s melanin-kissed “Hey Queen” Dinner celebrating Kelly Rowland.
Notable attendees of the lavish soirée included Victoria Monét, Coco Jones, Janelle Monáe, Jennifer Hudson, Niecy Nash, Quinta Brunson, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Danielle Brooks, Storm Reid, Andra Day, and many more.

In Mea Culpa, Kelly Rowland stars as a criminal defense attorney who takes on the case of a seductive artist (Trevante Rhodes) accused of murdering his girlfriend.
“But when burning desire takes hold things get hot… and dangerous,” per the official synopsis.
“This idea came to me because I love all of those older thrillers from the ’80s and ’90s,” said Perry in an interview with Tudum. “It was fun to explore the best and worst of humanity through the genre of an exotic thriller.”
Check out the sexy trailer below:
Written and directed by Perry, Mea Culpa is another win for the polarizing filmmaker who, despite a 72-hour roasting, knows how to top charts with his product.
