I am sure you didn't follow the film right or you didn't view it with an open mind.
why did you say that? I was actually siding with the man until towards the end of the movie.

What didn't make sense to me in the movie was; Why did the husband give all the things he promised his ex-wife to his new wife? They didn't share the same dream, hell, I'm not even sure his new wife asked for it and if the man truly loved his ex wife like he claimed, he would have felt guilty doing all that he promised her for this new women he was about to marry, he could have done something different. A part of me think's it's the husbands way of making the ex-wife (which he claims to love dearly) jealous, otherwise it's just poor writing.
The movie was poorly scripted what happens to forgiveness? if you truly love someone when it happens for you you repay the dreams you had together. Acrimony reminded me of a family in my area, the woman was a pain but the man had stuck with her and supported her for so long, he really had her back but at a point he had enough and asked her to leave because she obviously wanted more from her life, fast-forward 3 yrs later she was in a very juicy high as* position in Dubai as a Doctor she came back home apologized with her family to the man and they made up, he joined her in Dubai she helped him go for his masters and they are balling now, everyone hailed her attitude for not forgetting the man who stood by her through it all.

1. The man in question had those dream for his future wife.

2. No matter what you and your wife or husband are going through in life, never let the family decide for you.. Cos would will be left alone to face the consequence when the time comes.

3. Did you watch the part where the man went to her office and she ask if he went to borrow suit to impress her?

4. Have you forgotten this guy tried all his best to convince the lady not to divorce him but this lady refused and also mock this guy with her relatives.

5. If not for the girlfriend who link this guy up, would he have make it big?

6. My brother no matter what in life don't lose hope in your self and also don't lose hope in your loved ones.

What do you mean by his "Future wife?" You mean the second wife was teh future wife? didn't he have the dream before meeting his first wife? or his first wife wasn't the real wife but the second one? what makes the second wife "realer" than the first one? lol


2. No matter what you and your wife or husband are going through in life, never let the family decide for you.. Cos would will be left alone to face the consequence when the time comes.
Sure.

3. Did you watch the part where the man went to her office and she ask if he went to borrow suit to impress her?
Yeah, So? Haven't you heard of light hearted banter?

4.
Have you forgotten this guy tried all his best to convince the lady not to divorce him but this lady refused and also mock this guy with her relatives.
Most divorce usually takes years to finalize. The man didn't fight hard enough for someone he spent 18 years with. They finalized their divorce in a matter of days lol. But that's not the point, as a man or even a human being at that, can he not understand how the person who he's sharing his life with will be upset at the fact that he doesn't have a job and can't keep a job for 18 years of their marriage? My question is, do you have that kind of patience? I hope you answer honestly.

5.If not for the girlfriend who link this guy up, would he have make it big?
If it was a man that linked him up, will he then marry the guy? lol. You say thank you, pay them their share and continue prospering, you don't marry them.

6. My brother no matter what in life don't lose hope in your self and also don't lose hope in your loved ones.
It's funny you say this because you're probably a hypocrite in real life (I am too) who has given up or stopped believing in someone they loved.

Wow, what a woman. She obviously loved her husband of many years and it's not easy to just unlove someone like that and start loving someone new in such a short time frame that you even go ahead to marry them so quickly. Acrimony is truely lazy writing.

Like seriously we where really touched cos she was quite younger than her hubby and obviously richer and could have blanked him and moved on citing that at least he was the one that pushed her away but she never forgot the love they once shared, Acrimony's story line is very lazy writing and dosen't really teach the right thing go to reddit and quora the call out no be here, it's all fiction but painful things like that still happen. We pray for good partners that would always have our backs

Robert has no fault here, let me explain.
He begged her not to let go, he knelt in front of her in the presence of her relatives that never loved him and she did what pleases her, So what do you expect. Robert even paid her 10 times what she deserved as compensation and bought back her mother's house for her but all she wanted was the love of a man she refused at his point of success. Don't forget the 'Not so good sex' she had with another man. You should also know that If not for the new wife, Robert wouldn't have been successful as he was (The new wife brought him good luck while the old wife was his bad luck). I love that movie soooo much but never take it toooo personal like my girlfriend who got mad at me for supporting Robert at the end of the movie...Guys be wise.
Exactly my thought, if he's still with Melinda, who knows, that contract won't come.. Besides Robert was never liked by her sister from the beginning of the movie.. Melinda wasn't sensitive enough to this, if she was, who knows, she might not have listen to them concerning the divorce, cos she was only influenced to it, not her sole decision...

Out of respect for what they once had, he could have expressed love for his new wife in a different way is all I'm saying. This is where I don't agree with the man. Considering the sacrifice she made for him over the years, I don't think I could do something like that to a women that stayed with me for 18 years even when I didn't have a single job. it's should be enough for him to respect her even if they are not together.
I think it's a movie too, cos I also wonder how he quickly fell in love with her so fast, maybe to heal the pain of divorce, nevertheless that vacuum should be easily occupied by a stranger so fast..
Re: The Movie 'acrimony by eph12(m): 5:11pm On Sep 24, 2018
Don't forget that before he broke the news of his contract to Melinda, she told him that there was no chance they're getting back together. She refused to believe him that he didn't cheat on her. It wasn't the financial status that broke her but the thought that he cheated on her.
Now the money comes and she immediately forgot that he cheated on her or she finally believed him that he couldn't have cheated on her?
Re: The Movie 'acrimony by Nobody: 5:14pm On Sep 24, 2018
First of all, the comment and post about the movie made me look for it.. At the end it wasn't anything special.. The movie started looking like a fiction it was when he told her about a 800 dollar rejected deal and she didn't believe.. Thats when the film started looking more like a Nigerian film to me. Also how a 800 dollar deal later became a 150 million... In as much as i am in love with the producer Tyler perry but the views associated with this movie looks too emotional and fictitious to me.

If you've watched Suit, you'll understand the mindset of the guy that offered him that $800k. It's like an art of negotiation. Those coporate fvkcers are very brutal in striking deals. The device he made is called "a hypothetical perpetual motion device" in science because it creates free energy from no energy source thereby contradicting the law of thermodynamics which is IMPOSSIBLE. Think of a generator that doesn't need fuel for life. So you see that company would have made a trillion dollar with that invention alone because he will basically put Oil Moguls out of business.

If by now you've not watched the movie 'Acrimony', you're probably not a movie person or an extremely busy person.
Tyler Perry did a great job by sharing so many valuable lessons on relationship in it. And if you watched it intelligently you'll pick a couple of them.
As always, I like to base my judgement on the relationship even before marriage because most times marriage is an amplified version of a relationship. The quality of a relationship will to a large extent determine the quality of marriage.
So here's mine:
1. You don't start a relationship alone
You will eventually take the final decision of whether or not to go ahead with a relationship but don't rush. Listen to people, especially those closest to you because they would see what you can't see when you are blinded by emotions. Emotions are funny so we can't afford to always trust it. There is a difference between fighting for a man you love and fighting for one you have feelings for. Melinda's sisters were strongly against her relationship with Robert but she never listened.
A good reason to have wise people in your circle.
2. Never ignore red flags
Robert cheated on Melinda with another lady. He kept sucking the babe's money stylishly (sweet ATM). He took advantage of her vulnerability. He was a liar. There were many signs on the wall but Melinda ignored them.
3. Uncontrolled anger will cost you
When you notice that you have any character flaw, immediately work on it before it costs you something. In Melinda's case, it cost her her uterus and the dream life she patiently waited for 18years to have.
4. You get to pay for your sins one way or the other
Robert took advantage of Melinda's vulnerability for many years, spent all her money, cheated, refused to work till her patience ran out (because she's human). In the end, he had wealth without peace.
5. Sex can cover your eyes
Every level of intimacy you choose to practice in your relationship comes with a price. The moment sex comes into the picture, be rest assured that your judgement and approach to things will be corrupted by emotions. Melinda's behavior after having sex with Robert was very predictable. She could no longer SEE.
What did you learn from Acrimony?

Guy wetin u dey talk nw, d guy cheated on her at first they broke up and went ahead to apologise with her then they live happily together again, after that they guy neva cheat on her but rather focus in building his dream, but instead of the girl (melinda) to be patient and listen to him when she placed an allegation to him that he was seeing another lady but he wasnt they were just colleague working with each other when melinda did not believe in her husband dream but the oda lady believe and took him to her boss which wanted to buy the whole idea but Robert decline insisted of partnership instead of selling his dream. And when Robert later got to sign the deal with the company that yielded money i mean millions of dollars didnt he go back to melinda to beg her to come back home, yes he did but she decline insisted on filling for a divorce which she got and later the guy Robert went back to give a cheque of all the money she spent on him right from when they were in school till when he graduated and also pay her back in folds.

That didn't date, they had a casual fling 18 years ago. I don't think you understand how far 18 years is. And to marry someone you cheated on your GF with? isn't that cruel? wtf man? stop making this worse. It's like the more people try to rationalize this movie, the trashier the writing becomes. grin grin
