The Best Man

I am a big Dolph Lundgren fan and I have been watching all his movies since the direct to video days where you rented them on vhs and this is by far one of the worst. The action is bland the acting from the supporting cast is terrible and wooden and there is almost no plot. It takes over half an hour for the story to pick up and any action to happen and in that time its just terribly hammy acting from the supporting cast which is almost torturous to sit through. When the action finally picks up its bland and repetitive with nothing super exciting and I barely found myself staying awake throughout this film. Dolph has limited screen time and this one is an easy skip for any fans who are looking for a unique film with fun action scenes.

An interesting premise; rich daddy rents an entire mountain resort for his daughter's wedding, terrorists show up, mayhem ensues, is pretty much wasted with bland acting (by the men), hysteria (by the women), plot holes you could drive a truck through and fight sequences which purport to have actors playing highly-trained special ops vets but there's no doubt they're actors. As for Dolph Lundgren, in his prime he could've handled the entire invading force by himself, and even at 65 he should've been able to take out at least half of them alone. One has to wonder if the "liquor" he was drinking was real.

I'm actually only half way through, but so bored I needed something to do.

The acting isn't terrible but the writing really is.

So many eye roll moments in this movie.

So many cliched moments. "We've never had to use the panic room". Really?

The premise was really good but such a wasted opportunity.

The actors were under-utilised and not shown to their best abilities.

No humour or light moments at all. Or maybe there was and I didn't get the jokes?

There was no reprieve from the serious feeling of the movie. Either traumatic action or serious, dark moments with too much conversation but nothing really said.

This was truly terrible.

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.

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.
