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.

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!

Well I wouldn't even rate this a B-movie its way way down the alphabet.

No real plot with really bad acting and some crazy pointless over acting by the female cast.. And when do special operators as they are alleged to be, kill someone and leave the weapons, bearing in mind they have no other weapons.. And who drops an assault rifle after they her a female scream, no you pick it up reload and go shoot someone..

If feels like a lot of the films that have come out recently with actors who have been off the scene for a while needing some money.

And When is Luke Wilson the type of actor that plays well anything bad ass.

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.

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.
