Best movie ever!
A Disappointing Continuation
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
I'd like to see this kind of directing in all Black films, for Malcom D Lee shows us that not only can he make us laugh hysterically, as in "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins", ... but he can also make us cry as I did and I'm sure, a vast majority of viewers have & will. The music score in this film rates A+ and the cast members selected for this sequel could not be a more perfect selection. Terrance Howard's comedy, wit, and sarcasm is an added plus towards helping us, the viewers, return from a state of tears, back to a state of laughter. I rate this film 5 of 5 stars. lets see more. tyler is creating stuff we ant relate tooa nd this was refreshing i know i watche dit late but i am here now and it was a great nod to black films
I sure hope that all you guys giving this movie high ratings don't have friends like the characters depicted in this movie or think that this is normal friendship. The characters in this movie are loud, selfish, self-centered, narcissistic, brash, conniving, immoral, inappropriate around children, childish, unintelligent, underhanded, and bullish. And that just describes the first ten minutes. It is difficult to watch a drama where no one is appealing or likable. There is no one to root for in his movie. Is it bad if you just want the house they are all staying in to burn to the ground while they are all sleeping? Although you could show it to your children so they can see first hand how ugly all this behavior will make you look as an adult. Beautiful house, beautiful actors, and beautiful clothes cannot hide the ugliness pervasive in this movie.
The Best Man Holiday 2.5/10- First of all, do not confuse this movie with any sort of Tyler Perry kind of movie nonsense. This movie is its own kind of comedy. The thing that disappointed me about this movie though is it had a lot more drama then it led you on to believe. I never saw the first movie, so I am not going to make any comparisons. Luckily though, the movie does a quick recap of what happened in the last film and what the relationships are like between all of the characters. One of the reasons I wanted to see this movie is because it had some actors that I think are pretty good actors so I thought how bad could it be. I was somewhat pleased with the results.The acting ensemble of The Best Man Holiday all did a relatively good job. Terrence Howard was probably the funniest guy in the film, but I do not know if he deserves all the credit since he is playing the single guy of the group and is given the best lines. And that was the thing that I thought was wrong with the movie, it just was not nearly as funny as it led you on to believe and as a result a lot of people in the theater leave disappointed. It is not the actors fault either, the lines they were given just were not all that funny. The writers of the movie, in my opinion, did not give there best effort and were just hoping they had enough loyal fans from the first movie that were willing to walk into the movie blind. This plan seemed to play off well I guess because it did fairly well at the box office, but that is just lazy and those writers will have a shorter career then they planned to if they continue like this. The thing that most people love about this movie is the message it leaves you with at the end of the movie. It will tell you that you can turn your back on family or true friends. It makes you think about any bad relationships you have and how you can fix them because you will always need your family and friends around when life gets hard and as we all know it is a guarantee that life will get hard. This message is one of the few reasons why I think this movie is passable.In the end, The Best Man Holiday is an average comedy drama that I recommend you wait to see when it comes out on DVD.

Wow, how is it that a sequel can be better than the first?! Fabulous director, cast and storyline is the answer. Amazing! This is the absolute best movie I have seen in an extremely long time. I laughed, cried, was totally blown away and really needed this. The cast feels like family and that made all the difference in the world. Granted it was devastating with Mia's passing, but so great to see they kept faith and God throughout the storyline. I so appreciate that there was no fear in showing how we can have faith in God despite the circumstances. His understanding will always be so much greater than our own but we must never stop trusting Him. Malcolm D. Lee, you are brilliant! Can't wait to see what you come up with next and DEFINITELY can't wait for another Best Man movie! What, Quentin's getting married?! Set it up for the next one! See you in the theater and at the checkout counter! I have to have them all in my movie collection!
