Lo Mejor Que Puedas

My husband and I watched this movie and we both loved it. Kevin and his wife are terrific together. They have great chemistry and classy acting skills. It's not a fast, thriller or car chasing drama but a simple movie about life and difficult relationships. I've always loved Judd Hirsh and ge did not disappoint. The daughter and singer was great.

A surprising true to real life drama that brings the everyday struggles of fatherhood and life after your kids are grown up.

How does an older couple deal with life? How does the dad that wasn't always there try to show he cares? How do strangers find comfort in just helping each other?

Maybe this won't touch your heart, but it did touch mine.

Excellent movie with real actors showing real emotion.

Loved the comedic parts and how aging and real life problems related to the older generation were handled with hysterical laughable scripting. The heavier drama mixed in is similar to the things we all have to face sooner or later and are handled "the best you can".

Kevin Bacon's ML character is older, but still good looking for his age, cop security guard contrasts with the FL character who is a former smart nerd who became a urologist doctor who married a former Presidential administration member in the old days who is now losing his memory but wants to a book.

I deducted a couple of stars because I thought the dialog between the ML & FL got boring a couple of times while txting meaningless stuff just getting to know each other, and also thought the backstory of the MLs singer daughter was boring at times. Not sure if it were the casting or the songs.

The Best You Can (2025) is a light and pleasant film that delivers some charming and humorous moments, but it never reaches a truly high level of quality. It's the kind of movie you can enjoy casually, yet it doesn't leave a strong impression.

Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick bring natural warmth and fun to the screen. Their chemistry is still enjoyable, and they add a sense of playfulness to the film. However, the signs of age are clear on both actors, and the movie doesn't give them strong enough material to fully showcase their talent. They are likable, but the script around them feels weak.

The story is simple and predictable, with safe emotional moments and no real surprises. Everything moves smoothly but without depth. The direction and visuals are adequate but not memorable.

Overall, The Best You Can is cute and entertaining, but it doesn't rise to the level expected from its stars and remains a modest, forgettable experience.

Was recommended this movie fortunately. Need a movie that makes you feel good? That gives you credit for trying? That permits you your own humanity and encourages you to go on regardless? Watch this movie and you won't regret it.

I love how the two main characters connect...and listened to each other enough to use the Mr. Wizard reference. We need more movies like this. Normal people giving each other strength and encouragement and support. If you need a humanity pick me up, and God knows, we all do, give this movie a gander. An enthusiastic thumbs up from me.
