1994's " When a Man Loves a Woman ," a clear influence on "Addicted," showed a marriage nearly done in by alcoholism, and was a serious look at addiction, acknowledging the tough truth that not only the "sick" one needed to change.
It’s kinda neat to see Alicia Silverstone ( Beauty Shop ) here, gone from Clueless student to deeply disappointed teacher who does not want to coddle George.
In the mid-2000s, dance movies became all the rage in Hollywood, boosted by the surprising box office performance of 2003's "Honey" and the out-of-nowhere success of 2004's "You Got Served."
Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor (2013)
Directed by Tyler Perry
influenced Addicted (2014)
Themes
Arriving in theaters sans screenings for critics, the latest release from Lionsgate’s CodeBlack Films division could be glibly dismissed as “Tyler Perry’s Unfaithful,” if Perry hadn’t already been down a similar perils-of-infidelity road with the execrable “Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor.”
It’s hardly an artful lament for the loneliness of addiction, a la Steve McQueen’s “Shame,” but it’s not exactly an act of cinematic slut shaming either — at least until an entirely bewildering third-act twist temporarily transforms Quinton into a rampaging maniac before he disappears from the picture entirely.
