Jesse (Luke Wilson) gets released from prison, and his best friends show up in formal wear intending to take him to marry his sweetheart, Hope (Drew Barrymore). The wedding is postponed, though, when one of the groomsmen, Billy (Sean Patrick Flanery), decides to take a detour and rob a bank in his small hometown. The wedding party clumsily takes hostages and holes up in the bank as the police, including Billy's sheriff father (Fred Ward), surround the building and begin a standoff.

The ending is a little too neat and tidy, but as far as straight-to-video talk-fests go, Best Men's worth a look. Go to Full Review

Leia W Sep 17, 2017 Horrible. Couldn't watch the whole thing, but moved to the end to see if it improved. It didn't! If you like antiestablishment, if you like making heroes of gun-touting men threatening lives, if you like the humiliation of a father who did his best, if you like lives thrown away on misplaced loyalties and daddy issues.....you might enjoy it. If watching the pathetic and misguided does not appeal, however, don't watch it. Also, so NOT realistic - offensively ridiculous. See more
