Great movie for the holiday's with the boys. Don't want to spoil it but I was on the floor laughing a few times
Definitely enjoyed this film. Some great cameos and very funny scenarios. Jay Seals did a phenomenal job as the dejected ex-boyfriend. Give it a watch!
There's also the matter of Brad, whose character is responsible for the frustration present in the middle act of The Best Thanksgiving Ever. While initially introduced as the cynical realist to Kevin's relentless optimist, Brad quickly segues into toxic friend territory, repeatedly goading the clearly unwilling Kevin to join him in his night of alcohol-fueled night of casual sex, under the false guise of helping him get over his heartache. The fact that Brad is married only adds further salt to the wound, and even after Kevin delivers a cathartic tell-off rant to Brad, the film never allows for Brad to truly redeem himself for his behavior. It doesn't help that the closest thing he has to a redemption arc is tied in with a gag involving Brad and old high school classmate Samantha that is guaranteed to strike some the wrong way and render Brad thoroughly unlikable.

Was home for Thanksgiving one day and I randomly searched "Thanksgiving Movies" on Amazon. Ironically this popped up AND based in the same area I was raised in, DETROIT! Loved it to say the least! Mad that I found out about it years later but, glad I did. He needs to make a sequel! Maybe a Xmas one!

Great holiday movie composed of pure fun with a meaningful message about friendship at it's core. Great acting and a hilariously outrageous script set this movie apart from any mainstream comedy. Highly recommend.
