Pris pour cible

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.

Granted, I can't really say that I was exactly harboring a whole lot of expectations to this 2023 action thriller starring Luke Wilson, Dolph Lundgren and Brendan Fehr. But still, I opted to watch it, since I had the opportunity to do so, and because I hadn't already seen the movie.

The storyline in "The Best Man" was bland and generic, so very, very generic. I am rather impressed that three writers could collectively manage to put together something so bland. Writers C. Alec Rossel, Shane Dax Taylor and Daniel Zirilli didn't impress me with this movie, and it made for a very forgettable action thriller movie experience.

The acting performances in "The Best Man" were as you would assume they would be for a movie of this type, genre and caliber. You're not in for an evening of Shakespearian theater here, that's for sure. Not that I was expecting such, anyway.

For an action thriller then "The Best Man" came and went without leaving much of a lasting impression. Sure, I managed to sit through the entire 93 minutes that director Shane Dax Taylor presented, but I was only mildly entertained. This is hardly a movie that warrants more than just a single viewing.

My rating of "The Best Man" lands on a three out of ten stars.

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.

Once again, Hollywood (if you can call it that) fails to reach the first rung of the bar for entertainment with this one. A couple of well known actors doesn't make for quality evening on the couch.

A rich Dad rents out a whole 5 star resort for his daughter's wedding. More like Holiday Inn based on the decor as you watch the movie. My favorite was when they see the "safe room" with state of the art security and equipment!

If you need to drain a few hours of your life in the hopes you get a glimpse of Luke Wilson and Dolph Lundgren at their finest, you'll be sorely disappointed that somebody either needed a paycheck, or seriously owed somebody a favor.

Pathetic that when viewers are subjected to drivel such as this, that we can't get a refund. Professionals...SMH!

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.
