The Best Man

It's a B-movie alright. Definitely NOT a Dolph Lundgren movie. He has only got a small role. NOR is it a Luke Wilson movie. Both actors (the reason I started watching) only have tiny supporting roles. And Dolph has really gotten old. He should retire...

Skip the first 45 minutes. NOTHING happens, besides 3 minutes opening fire at the very start.

The bad: lots is wrong with this movie, because it is a cheaply made B-movie, with below average technical details.

Not any good? After 45 minutes FINALLY the action starts and although it is still nothing noteworthy, it'll do for those who usually like to watch these cheap action B-movies.

And I must admit, there is a certain supsense that I kinda liked. So not all bad...

Right out of the gate this movie is horrendous and gets progressively worse. It really deserves a zero rating because the "value" here is literally zero. No fun, no laughs, no enjoyment, no suspense of any kind. The action here is a complete joke, basically High school film trash that would be embarrassing even on youtube. You can't even laugh at how bad it is because the movie is so boring. In terms of generic action movie this is as bad as it gets.

If you actually want a fun bad action movie then watch any of the recent Steven Seagal films. Those movies are hilariously bad and have basically the same plot, but the difference is you can actually laugh at those movies.

There is no situation on earth where I would recommended this movie expect maybe as a torture device.

Watched this movie on the fact that it was rated 7.3 out of 10. Did anybody actually watch this film? Big fan of Luke Wilson and Brendan Fehr so figured I couldn't go wrong but boy, was I ever wrong. Right off the bat I could tell you the script was very poor with lots of long pauses between dialogue and the the action was basically just OK. Took forever just to get some context on what was going on. Even then, not sure if I understand it all. I realize not all films are going to be Oscar quality but boy, this was so NOT anything worthy. Guess Wilson and Fehr we're just bored and needed something to do!

Created an account here just to warn other watchers off. Awful acting. Awful plot. Terrible all the way... I watched the whole thing as I was hoping for a decent ending but it was consistent in mediocrity until the end! The plot is very loose and the characters have no depth whatsoever. I am not sure who should be the main character as they are all so transparent. The scenes drag on for ever and the suspense is inexistant. I think I would rate sharknado higher than this. Was this filmed in a day and dialogues made up as they went along? So, my advice is to avoid watching this movie at all cost.

Granted, I can't really say that I was exactly harboring a whole lot of expectations to this 2023 action thriller starring Luke Wilson, Dolph Lundgren and Brendan Fehr. But still, I opted to watch it, since I had the opportunity to do so, and because I hadn't already seen the movie.

The storyline in "The Best Man" was bland and generic, so very, very generic. I am rather impressed that three writers could collectively manage to put together something so bland. Writers C. Alec Rossel, Shane Dax Taylor and Daniel Zirilli didn't impress me with this movie, and it made for a very forgettable action thriller movie experience.

The acting performances in "The Best Man" were as you would assume they would be for a movie of this type, genre and caliber. You're not in for an evening of Shakespearian theater here, that's for sure. Not that I was expecting such, anyway.

For an action thriller then "The Best Man" came and went without leaving much of a lasting impression. Sure, I managed to sit through the entire 93 minutes that director Shane Dax Taylor presented, but I was only mildly entertained. This is hardly a movie that warrants more than just a single viewing.

My rating of "The Best Man" lands on a three out of ten stars.
