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.
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.

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.
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.

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.
