A successful, wealthy businessman, Wesley Deeds (Tyler Perry) has always done what's expected of him, whether it's assuming the helm of his father's company, tolerating his brother's misbehavior at the office or planning to marry his beautiful but restless fiancee, Natalie (Gabrielle Union). But Wesley is jolted out of his predictable routine when he meets Lindsey (Thandie Newton), a down-on-her-luck single mother who works on the cleaning crew in his office building. When he offers to help her get back on her feet, the chance encounter with someone so far outside his usual circle ignites something in Wesley. This one good deed may finally spark his courage to exchange the life that's expected of him for the life he's always really wanted. -- (C) Lionsgate

Whose life, Wesley asks in the movie's narration, is he living? Judging from all the sterile office and apartment space and his mile-long face, I'd say Bruce Willis's in "The Sixth Sense.''

Nobody ever called the guy who made his name by wearing a dress "subtle."

There aren't a lot of laughs in "Good Deeds," and it could have used more of them.
Joe Leydon / Variety

An otherwise unremarkable pic that takes what feels like a very long time to unwind a drearily predictable storyline.
David DeWitt / New York Times

Good Deeds honors goodness, which isn't at all a bad thing, and it's not without moments of genuine feeling. But by the film's end, after watching a seemingly infinite number of dour close-ups of sober self-evaluation, I felt bludgeoned.
Roger Moore / San Jose Mercury News
Feb 24, 2012
The result is an overlong, flat movie in which he's hitting his "women as victims" theme a bit more lightly, but which lacks an edge and does nothing to keep us from guessing the ending, pretty much based on the title.

Good Deeds, with its Frank Capra-gone-Good Will Hunting title, is lucky to have Thandie Newton, easily the most gifted actress ever to have starred in a Tyler Perry movie.

Every Perry movie has its highs and lows. This time, the highs are a little higher, and the lows not quite so low.

Where's Madea when you need her?

Good Deeds is more proof that Perry is a crude dramatist.
Linda Barnard / Toronto Star
Feb 23, 2012
A melodramatic slog riddled with laughable dialogue that wouldn't hold a made-for-TV-movie audience past the first commercial break.
