WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE.......2004-12-10

BEST MEN surprised me very much; I wasn't expecting such a delightful, if a little bit depressing, movie. Directed by Tamra Davis with a keen eye on characterization and humor, this movie is one of those you smile most of the time, and have a good time with its surreal and zany plot.
Luke Wilson plays Jesse, a convict getting out of prison after a theft, and who is getting married to his sweetheart, Hope (Drew Barrymore). Along for the ride are his best friends (Dean Cain as a former Green Beret, who is gay; Mitchell Whitfield as the lawyer Saul, who was Wilson's lawyer; Andy Dick as the nerdy Teddy, who is in a bad marriage; and Sean Patrick Flannery, who plays Billy and is secretly the philanthropic bank robber known as Hamlet because he spouts off lines from the play when he robs the banks. Billy doesn't tell his buddies that he's planning on robbing a bank before the wedding, but one thing leads to another and all the men are holed up in the bank with the local sheriff (Fred Ward) who also happens to be Billy's father! Soon, the inevitably nasty FBI comes in, headed by the sadistic and cold agent, played with malevolent glee by the durable and dependable Raymond J. Barry (Dead Man Walking, The Chamber).
The movie moves from some very humorous scenes to a devastating finale. This dramedy works because the performances are top notch and the script while manipulative is honest. Brad Dourif gives one of his best performances since "Cuckoo's Nest" as the mentally challenged Vietnam vet. Fred Ward, Dean Cain, Sean Patrick Flannery and Mitchell Whitfield are also excellent. It's the best work I've seen Cain do.
The movie entertained me immensely, and I would recommend it to audiences who enjoy a dramatic comedy! Or is it a comic drama?
Cheers!

Dean Cain once again plays the "gay" character.......2004-08-03

I'm surprised after the well received TV Series "Superman", Dean Cain can now only find roles in B-rated films. More suprisingly is the frequency Dean Cain plays a gay character once again. The movie as a whole was funny at times, but definitely a cable only viewing. Not once does Dean Cain even take off his shirt, which would have added to the character's development and my enjoyment. The idea of the "son" quoting Hamlet bored me to death. This movie needed the giant Monty Python foot to squish some characters for a good laugh thus improving the quality and rating of this film.

Never Rob A Bank On You're Wedding Day!!!.......2002-10-05

Hi, I'm 13 years old!
The reason I've said that I'm 12 is it doesn't go to my age!
Anyway.......................
Best Men is one of my favourite all time movies!!!
I love the way it sought of tells the story of these young guys and a girl who is gonna marry one of them!
Even though the rest of the characters were good, I absolutely fell in love with the character of Lt. John "Gonzo" Coleman! He's a character who's. .well, he's funny without meaning to be, if you know what I mean!
If you like a film with boys, comedy, disgruntled soldiers, good soundtracks and a good script, this is the one for you!!!

Drew's in this movie, but barely..........2002-05-28

I received this DVD as a gift. The person who bought this knows that I am absolutely NUTS over Drew Barrymore. Even thought Drew is on the cover her actual role in the movie is minor. Her role here is comparable to her role in "Donnie Darko." The movie does start off a bit tepid and ends with a punch. Watch and listen carefully for there are some shocking surprises. I will say that the movie is well made and engrossing. However, if you must buy this movie, buy it for the fun of watching it and not for solely for seeing Drew.

a Drew fan.......2002-04-23

I bought this movie because Drew Barrymore is in it and I'm collecting all her movies. I watched it for the first time today and to tell you the truth the end was a little to sad for what I thought it was gonna be.
To quote the back of the movie:
"Hope's (Barrymore) big mistake on her wedding day was sending the groomsmen to collect her jailbird fiance Jesse (Wilson) from Prison. For on the way from the penitentiary, the best man, Billy (Flanery), decides he needs a little cash infusion from the town bank...so he holds it up! But's it's not long before all of the groomsmen are held up - when the cops surround the place! And since neither hell nor high water will stop Hope from having her day...she rushes in to join her fugitive wedding party, at the risk of spending her honeymoon - not to mention the rest of her life- behind bars."
It was a wonderful cast of Drew, Luke Wilson, Dean Cain, Andy Dick, Sean Patrick Flanery, and Mitchell Whitfield. A good description of this movie is a different kind of shotgun wedding.

ASIN: B0001GH6T6
Release Date: 2004-02-24

Amazon.com

These five music videos by Boyz II Men capture everything good about the group (the gospel roots and secular appeal, the discipline and earnestness) and everything bad (the passion spilled over into goo). "I'll Make Love to You" becomes a soundtrack for a little story about a security expert's desire for a lonely client. It's a neat idea, but finally overwhelmed by the Boyz' pleading tone. The fun "One Sweet Day" finds the guys hanging around a studio with a leggy Mariah Carey, recording a tune about loss and love between goofing off. "On Bended Knee" balances the pain of a domestic fight with graceful harmonies, while "Water Runs Dry" features the group singing against the exotic backdrop of a desert. The forgettable "End of the Road" gets no help from visual settings at a train station and in an alley. --Tom Keogh

Product Description

Brand new, factory sealed, official release edition manufactured in South Korea. Very clear full screen black and white image. Original English dialog with optional Korean subtitles which can be turned off. On screen menus are in English and are easy to use. DVD case comes in attractive slipcase. The following review appeared for the VHS edition: Writer-director Robert Rossen and character actors Broderick Crawford and Mercedes McCambridge (in her film debut) took home Oscars (for Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actress, respectively) for this excellent adaptation of Robert Penn Warren's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Crawford stars as Willie Stark, a charismatic populist Southern politician (inspired by the real Louisiana Governor Huey Long) who belies his "man of the people" roots as he ruthlessly maneuvers, lies, and deals his way into the halls of power. John Ireland is his right-hand man, Jack Burden, a newsman turned political flack who hangs on to Stark's early idealism even in the face of Stark's most reprehensible acts of corruption. McCambridge is Stark's cool mistress come calculating assistant. The immediacy of the drama is due in part to a documentary-like style, notably in the scenes on the campaign trail where Stark sways crowds with his folksy rhetoric and estimable charm. Joanne Dru and John Derek also costar. Rossen's savage screenplay and firm direction give the film a powerful punch, but it's Crawford's blustery charm and oversized performance that carry the picture. --Sean Axmaker

Drew in Best Men.......2002-09-19

Ok,so it isn't one of the movie greats but it is really enjoyable.Four idiotos rob a bank when one of them is supposed to be marrying Drew's character,whatsername.

Awful, awful movie.......2001-06-13

First off, Drew Barrymore does not have a large part in this movie. The plot is sick and pathetic. Sean Patrick Flannery is very enjoyable to watch, but this movie isn't. It made no sense at all. Skip it. Don't bother.

Exciting, funny and utterly surprising.......2001-05-27

To put it simply, this movie just goes to show that "B" grade movies doesn't necessarily mean that they are "B" in quality. In fact, I would say that Best Men is better than some supposed "A" grade movies.

This movie has something that a lot of others lack - originality. I was kept entertained throughout the entirity of this movie, as were other people that I have recommended this movie to.

This movie definitely definitely gets two thumbs up from me.

Stupid, Inane and an Utter Waste.......2001-04-09

Best Men is probably the worst movie I have seen since Wired. This film (if it can even be called a film..) began horribly and continued to increase in stupidity and tedium. I can't say exactly which scene in particular sums up the contempt I have for this movie (was is the early "homosexual experience confession" scene, or the scene where we find out that the police officer in charge of the bank robbery situation is Sean Patrick Flanery's father?), but -believe me- this one's a stinker. (And the only reason I'm giving this movie a star at all is because of Andy Dick's casting.)

Best Men.......2000-10-08

This movie has it all. Exploration of relationships, platonic and romantic, self-examination, character study, comedy of folly, and all without being heavy-handed or boring. All the performances are top-drawer and each character has something to offer which is great and rare, making this truely and ensemble piece. Dean Cain's performance is especially captivating, but not so much that it fails the mix. You like and care about each one of the characters, warts and all. I would recommend this movie to anyone, because I think anyone regardless of taste preferences would find something to love about this movie. Definately worth the look.
