    Nuanced, Funny, and Creative Comedy

    Lot's of really funny scenes and dialogue. I also like how it's a nuanced perspective, where the protagonists are the Best Man and Made of Honor, the "best people", rather than the perspective of the Bride and Groom.

    Amazing!!!

    Great laughs! Great moments! Great acting! Feels like a modern day "My Best Friends Wedding" mixed with "Leaving Las Vegas!"lol Seriously GREAT FILM!!!

    Not your average wedding comedy

    The Best People is more than just a comedy. This movie has a perfect balance of witty and heartfelt moments that prove that wedding comedies don't need to be all the same. The cast was great and the characters were complex and profound, especially the protagonist Anna. She is a perfect example of a character we shouldn't like but do anyway as her flaws and struggles resonate so much with the audience. Making the film from the perspective of the best man and maid of honor was a smart writing choice and made the story more unique. Had a real pleasure watching this movie. Highly recommended!
