To me, this movie is perfection.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

What a train wreck.Watching the opening credits the audience is granted some manner of false hope; Wilson, Cain, Flanery, Dick, Ward, and Barrymore...not to mention direction from the talented Tamra Davis. Add in music by Mark Mothersbaugh and you might think you were in for a really entertaining hour and a half. You'd be wrong.Instead this is 90 minutes of your life you'll be wishing you had back. This movie fails miserably in spite of its passable cast. The script is miserable tripe, with each member of this derelict wedding party recounting their own unique story, one more cliché than the next.The supporting cast features a bevy of film stereotypes; the distant father, the crazy veteran, the villainous FBI agent...even a black security guard named after a ball player! How embarrassing.Beyond the bad script, sub par performances, weak story, and average direction, Best Men never really decides where it wants to go. Comedy, dark comedy, action-adventure, drama; as it flounders it never achieves any of these goals.Don't be fooled by the stars, this is grade A loser not worthy of its cast or its director.

Great movie..it has comedy, drama, unexpected events, love and real interaction among friends..people you know slightly and total strangers who interact and mesh well in the storyline. Good cast; and for all of you Dean Cain fans, he shows a buff chest. Drew adds an interesting twist to the bride-to-be. Luke Wilson is again great in his role, he gives real depth to his role. The male stars interact like they actually know their roles and the little quirks in their relationships just seems to draw you more into the story and Drew is believable as the bride to be and has a friendship with each of the 5 male stars. I seldom recommend movies, but this is definitely one I plan on seeing a few times just because it was written so well I know I probably missed a few things the first time.

Basically it's there in the subject. When I first rented this movie I thought "Oh sounds like it'll be a cute movie." Yes, I said "cute." So I took it home, put it in and let it play. What I got was a completely different experience than I was expecting, but very much welcome in the end. It's a movie about friendship, love, and ultimately sacrifice. While some of the cast may not be well known to the public, what I have seen most of them in as well as this movie, has been quite impressive. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who has enjoyed such films as "Thursday," "Pulp Fiction," or even Michael Mann's "Heat." One of the best ensamble casts since the recent "Ocean's Eleven," check it out. I give it FOUR out of FIVE STARS.

Spoilers herein.Some films allow you to see how they were conceived. This one you can see the splices: `Deer Hunter,' `Dog Day,' `Speed,' `Butch Cassady.' Each is rolled out in turn to remind us of some fond image instead of delivering one to us directly.I'm beginning to feel that it is now impossible to make a passable film with either a bus chase or a pickup by a helicopter from a moving vehicle. This has both. Drew Barrymore from her Green period. Early Luke Wilson.Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 4: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.
