Every single movie starring Tyler Perry as Madea is one way or another knit around her family. But what if there is a movie where the entire family is not been known by the lead character? Well, that is exactly the case with Marlon Wayans’ movie Sextuplet. The story follows Allan, an expectant father who sets out to find his birth mother. However, instead of her, he comes across a brother he never even knew he had. One thing leads to another, and he soon realizes that he actually has 5 siblings, and thus is a sextuplet.
