That's why I never listen to the critics, because if I counted on them, I probably
wouldn't see half of the movies I have seen. This movie was GREAT. I actually
took a half a day off work to see the movie and obviously a lot of other people thought
the same way because there wasn't an empty seat in the house.

I really enjoyed this movie! People in the theatre, on the University of Texas at
Austin's campus, gave the movie a standing ovation!!!!!!!!! We absolutely loved
it!!!!!!!!!! Applause could be heard throughout the student center, and over 300
people attended the first showing. People had to be turned away because the theatre was
filled to maximum capacity!!!!!!! It is worth seeing at least twice!!! I have seen
it twice!!!!

The Best Man is a well written and produced movie with an all-star cast that deserves high
praise. Following in what I hope to continue as lasting tradition of black writers and
directors portraying blacks in positive movies roles as opposed to Hollywood reserving
these roles for the more "refined black actor". These movies are important in
that they break down these stereotypical roles and portray black men and women in their
true fashion as opposed to the shoot-em-up hype that sells tickets. Also, ensure that the
ticket stub that you are receiving at movie venues match the movie that you are paying to
see. Box Offices shave credit off of black movies sales by handing movie patrons ticket
stubs that don't match the intended movie thereby creating the appearance of the movie as
a "box-office flop" which discourages and discredits black movies and gives this
credit to other movies with higher box office expectations.

As always Morris Chestnut, Taye Diggs, and Nia long were at their best! Newcomer Harold

job,Also along with the rest of the cast. and as far as Morris chestnut goes he did a

Excellent movie! I saw it twice over the weekend and I plan on seeing it at least 2 more
times! It's wonderful to see a black film that doesn't center around drugs and violence. I
realize that these things do exist in our community (as well as others) but we also have
educated successful brothers and sisters that are doing positive things. I'm glad
more filmmakers are creating movies about these people as well. Another movie to add to my
black film collection!

I loved the movie. The movie was a roller-coaster ride of emotions for me. I
laughed, cried, was happy and sad. I felt like I was there and could identify with
the characters. Hats off to an all-star cast that was fantastic and well chosen.
They were so convincing and made their characters so believable. It is a great
story about friendship, love, spirituality and the test of each. The audience talked back
to the characters and I heard a lot of "got to see it again" comments
afterwards. I can't wait for the video as I want to make it a gift to many. Of
course, as always, Nia, Taye, Morris and Terrence was great and newcomer, Harold
Perrineau, held his own. I am sure we will be seeing a lot more of him. The
only negative thing I can say about the movie is that the N-word was used too many times,
for me, in the first 30 minutes of the movie. There are so many other words that
could have been used, such as "Man", "Boo", you know the words.
Overall, it is a ! great movie and I will recommend it to be seen by friends.

I am so proud of this movie! By Saturday evening, I had already seen it three times.
The themes of love, loss, true intimacy, betrayal and forgiveness kept me coming
back for more. It was very versatile and possessed universal appeal. Kudos to
Malcolm and all who worked on the project. I woke up extra early on Monday morning
to see how the movie ranked and the #1 spot was well deserved. Thanks for your dream
Malcolm and sticking with it until the end. Looking forward to doing this thing

I thought, no I know this is the "Best" movie running right now.Although is has
an all black cast, the movie crosses all color barriers. I really enjoyed the story
line.The actors all fit perfectly to their script.What I liked particularly, is that the
writer made me like a character, that in real life upon meeting him, I probably would have
hated, and that was Quintin. WOW-his character was so real and so essential to the
film-LOVED HIM!! That's all I can say otherwise I could go on all day on how much I loved
this film in one word is was "AMAZING"

PLEASE make sure your tickets are for the movie you paid to see. Ticket sales are
how ratings are measured and it is not uncommon to receive the wrong (accidentally, of
course) tickets for African American films.

This movie was amazing and really touched the heart. I cried and boo-hooed at the wedding
as Lance sturuggled to do his vows. He looked sooooooooooooooooooo good. I enjoyed each
character's personality, even Shelby. I liked the fact that the movie presented positive
aspects. Last but not least I was going crazy over Taye, Morris and Terrence. They are all

The Best Man was a good movie. Not the best of the year, but good. I really liked
the positive career minded African American potrayed here, but I didn't really care for
the image that we think it is ok to sleep with whom ever we want regardless of a committed
relationship we might be in. That was a bit to much. I did like the love that
was evident between Lance and Mia. The actors really made you believe that they were in
love. However I didn't care for the "Christian" in this movie being a
cussing, fornicating, indecisive man. Could he at least not have called himself
that. It gives us Christians the image that it is ok to do all that cussing in the church
no less. There should be a standard somewhere.

It's one those movies that can make you laugh and make you cry because I did both. I
don't care what no one says the movie was great and I'm definitely going to see it again
an for those who haven't see it yet go see it. And another thing it's a movie that almost
everyone can relate to because someone or one that you know have been in that same
situation before and if there's someone out there getting ready to get married you need to
see these.

I can not believe Mike Clark of USA Today thought Hav Plenty was a "good" movie.
That was a piece of crap. The characters and the plot did not flow together.
It was a very pieced-together movie. Was that the intent?? Needless to say, The Best
Man was, by far, an entertaining and refreshing movie. And isn't that what a movie is
supposed to be about? Entertainment. It shouldn't be a dull, boring view. And
this was not. Some of the people who are reviewing this movie are obviously white
because the only problems they can actually find with it is that it is unrealistic to
believe that we can be rich. What a crock!! I wish the reviewers had been in the theater
with me and my friends to understand what parts of the movie were the most entertaining to
us. Let's face it: white people just don't get it. They don't get what makes us
tick, what makes us laugh, cry or empathize. This was a great movie and I plan to see it
again and again and I will purchase the video tape when it comes out. Morris and
Taye were absolutely delicious! The entire cast was beautiful!!! I had a great time!
Isn't that what it's all about? Please, please, please give us more movies like this!!!!

innocent(partly). And the beautiful, Nia Long, gives us another great preformance.Along

It was great! If your are not brain washed by America's white-washed TV programs, you will
like it. It is a shift in the black paradigms we, as black people, are forced to
watch--blacks in the ghetto, blacks being clowns, blacks being athletes, blacks being
crooks. I think if you took the same movie and replace the actors with popular,
young and attractive whites, TV guide and other's would have rated the movie a hit.
However, the movie was the highest box office draw on its opening weekend ($10 million, of
which 85% were "black" dollars). There is really a slump at the box
office, I read in U.S.A. Today. I'm sure many critics were upset that it was not of the
genre of Boyz in the Hood, He Got Game or Menace II Society. They probably thought the
plot was not feasible, like Blacks building pyramids or Timbuktu. Let me
guess...they did not like Love Jones either.

This film has been Highly Under-rated. This film will make you laugh, cry, clap, and is

How can TV Guide and USA Today give this movie a 50 rating. Racism still stands tall
or could it be that the critics that these publishing compaines use are White and really
don't understand BLACK life. It is ridiculous that all black movies have
to come down to a black-white view point instead of a "WORK of ART" viewpoint.
But, by design, you critics make it that way.

Fabulous! It was worth seeing 3 times in two days. I am a happily married 33 year
old African American woman with two female children (11 and 4). I am a full-time Housewife
and Assistant to my Husbands home based business. My husband is 40 years old. I'm
willing to share this information so that you are informed of who you are actually hearing
from. I went to the Matinee on Wednesday with my aunt. I could not get through my day
because of my thoughts of this movie. I couldn't sleep! On Thursday I went
back to the Matinee, except this time I went alone. This time I cried when I saw the
movie. That evening I took my husband and HE ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! Each male
character in his own way was very charming and deserving of the feature title, "The
Best Man." In my opinion the Best Supporting Actor catagory nomination should go to
Quentin. He was the only male who was so confident, geniune and aware of his actual
self. As Lance said it, "He's honest." Malcolm Lee is to be commended for
his dedication to this project! His hard work has paid off. I just might go see it again
this weekend to be included in the weekend number ratings. (SMILE). I hope the best
for you and your future. P.S.- This is not a BLACK MOVIE. Each time I went I noticed
blacks, caucasians, asians (all kinds); and young and old people. Let's just face
the facts - - because the Director and cast is black should not classify this as a black
movie. Where did this stem from? Racism grows with silence and it is
time that the volume is turned up on this separation. Thank you! Tina Williams Sacramento,

Great movie! I saw it three times in two days. My husband and I loved it. I
will probably see it again, rent it when available and buy it when released. It is a
MUST SEE!!!!!!! I think Quentin's character should be nominated for Best Supporting Actor.
In my opinion all four men were portrayed "The Best Man" in his own individual
way. My original thought was that the author of the book had his life together, but
as the story is told he really did not; However, his love for his friend lead him to make
it right. Lance could recognize inconsistancy in his life and he knew that although
he wasn't perfect, he knew he needed God as the higher power in his life to keep him on
the straight and narrow. Murph (Shelby's man) could not be himself for living through
someone else and it was so refreshing to see him recognize him for himself. Quentin
was so tight -- he actually made you love him. He was the only one confident in
being who he was. No fronts, no aires, I'm just myself - that's why you had to love
him. As Lance said, "He's honest." There was closure at the end of this
movie so it felt good to walk away knowing that each one ended up with someone. The rumor
that this is a black movie is an insult. This was the most creative movie I've ever seen.
It revealed everyday experiences for blacks in this country. We are fun,
loving people and we enjoy every day of our lives. We never stop living!

As a white person with little or no contact with Blacks, I was interested in what a movie
featuring an all black cast would be like. Well, it was suprisinly like a movie
featuring an all white cast, only better. Better than most any movie I've seen in my
lifetime. It was creative, clever, intelligent, suspenseful. And the
Character's were all unique and multifacted. The movie wasn't just a movie for woman who
like a story about a wedding. It had some great "GUY" scenes that my
husband thought were thoughtful and hilarious. I think seeing this movie could do
more to end RACE relation strains than any conferences on the subject.

I have recently viewed the movie Best Man for the second time. I was surprise to
note that your movie review only scored the movie as 59.8 on your scale. Fortunatley,
enough your scale, is not official. Also, I am curious as to how the score is determined.
And if this is based on a poll of your emails. I'm also curious as to the
race, and age of your viewers. I'm sure Blair Witch scored a 100. Just something to think
about.

Great
Movie!!!...It's definitely a step in the right direction for honest portrayals of African
Americans in today's society. It is a full love story with dramatic & comedic
inflections that moved seamlessly between the spectrum of emotions. The movie is the best
effort that we have seen from the 40 Acres and a Mule Production House. Previous efforts
left us unsatisfied in some respect, either overkill (She's Gotta Have It) disjointed
story (Crooklyn) preachy (Do the Right Thing, Get on the Bus) or simply a bad idea
(Girl 6). We believe and hope that a sequel should follow. Congrats to the supurb cast and
the extremely talented supporting actors who stole the show. Also Congrats to Mr. Stanley
Clark for the excellent score and the Music Supervisor(s) for the excellent Soundtrack!!

was so excited to see an all African-American cast and there was no gang-banging and
killing. It was so real and I felt so connected to the circle of friends.
Morris Chestnut is TOO SEXY for words. I mean, he has definitely come a long way
since "Boyz N The Hood." Taye Diggs is ALWAYS SEXY as well. The
movie was great, and I would definitely love to see it again. I will definitely purchase

It was alright! With all the possibilities for interesting character development, it
really came down to one character, Harper, and how he got his groove on with his homey's
girlfriend. Here's a hint for next time: Take each character and present their side
of the story. Let them lure you into the real of possibility as the story nears its
end. That way it wouldn't have been so damned predictable. My girlfriend was
telegraphing to me what was going to happen next in this movie. But hey, that'me, I
just wasn't in the mood for goofiness that night.

This rating is totally wrong. Any couple will love it. Or single person for that

of us shooting and killing each other over petty drug money. Many of us are young

movie I would have missed this wonderful depiction of Black life. Contrary to a
reviewer in my hometown paper,(he felt it was unrealistic that a group of Black friends
from college would all be secessful)there are many Black Americans that live like the
characters in the movie. They are my family, friends and the people down the street.

character and the respect in the portrayl of our relationships and souls as black people.

It certainly appeals to me and my peers far more than some of the other movies that

The movie was
absolutely wonderful? It is definitely worth the money to see it during full-time

it was quite unpredictable which makes for a wonderful adventure in movie watching.
There were no lulls in the movie and nothing that made one say, "when is this going
to be over?" It quite easily held my interest and invoked a variety of
emotions. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made defend men as well as chew them
up and say "that's what you get". Hats off to Malcolm and the entire cast

were guys and Nia Long was the only lady. But that doesn't realll count. The
only thing we think was wrong was when the guy with the dreads came to the wedding with
the stripper Candy and his girlfriend was there. He broke up with her and in the reception
one of his friends ended up sleepin with her. Other than that it was a great movie.

of the characters. If you watch it for imagery its there---> notice that when
Harper and Jordan are talking and she mentions them being two peas in a pod the couch that
is chosen for them to be on is a green pea colored couch. I dont know how else to
