Motives? (movie) It's a B movie, but I liked the 1st one. It wasn't a comdey/dramedy.
Does Crooklyn count?

I still don't know whether I liked The Family that Preys.
It annoyed me at points.

Don't think so, it was set in the 'hood, wasn't it? Was Akeelah and the Bee?

The neighborhood in Crooklyn was like....lower middle class. The family owned that brownstone, I thought.

I almost think that Crooklyn counts as a period piece as well. If not then I want to count The Inkwell in there also...hehehe

I can't think of the name of the movie, but it has Keke Palmer (Akeelah and the Bee) and Ice Cube in it. It's where she plays a QB for her local pop warner team and they make it all the way to the national championship.
It's also based on a true story so idk if that counts as historical.
ETA: I'm not a Tyler Perry fan but I will add "Not Easily Broken" & "Why did I Get Married".

1. That was "The Longshots."
2. TP didn't do "Not Easily Broken." That was T.D. Jakes, but it counts. I was gonna say WDIGM? but I thought that was part comedy (or maybe I just laughed a lot when I wasn't supposed to).

Crooklyn was definitely the hood-crackheads, po-po on the block, electricity getting turned off, stealing icees from the bodega, etc. One of my favorite movies-though set in the 70s, definitely felt a lot like my childhood.
Can we add Antwone Fisher to the list? And that train wreck This Christmas?
