🎬 Tyler Perry’s Straw on Netflix Has a Twist That’ll Knock You Flat
🍿 Quick Take
When I hit play on Straw, I figured I was in for something predictable. Just another Tyler Perry movie with a little drama, a little mystery, and the usual emotional rollercoaster. What I got instead was a smart, well-paced story that surprised me in all the right ways. It’s simple, strong, and ends with one of the best twists I’ve seen in ages.
⭐ The Review
Straw is a total sleeper hit. It doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel. It just takes what works, does it really well, and lets the story shine. That’s what makes this movie such a satisfying watch. The plot stays focused, never gets bogged down in trying to be too clever, and keeps you guessing without making your brain hurt.
The cast is stacked. You’ll instantly recognize a few faces from Perry’s other movies, only this time they’re in totally new roles. If you’ve followed his work over the years, you’ll catch the inside jokes and nods. It adds this fun, almost meta layer to the experience without taking you out of the moment.
Now let’s talk about the twist. No spoilers here, but wow. I haven’t had a twist hit me like that in a long time. It lands perfectly, doesn’t feel forced, and it makes everything before it snap into place in a way that’s super satisfying. It’s the kind of ending that makes you want to rewind and watch it again just to see what you missed.
📺 Skip or Stream?
Stream it. No question. Even if you’re not a huge Tyler Perry fan, this one stands on its own. If you like thrillers, this should be on your list.
🔁 Would I Watch Again?
Yes, one hundred percent. I already want to rewatch it with someone just so I can see their reaction when that twist drops.
