Jimmy Callahan (Kevin Hart) runs The Best Man, Inc., a company that provides Best Men for sad sacks who don't have any friends. In walks Doug Harris (Josh Gad) two weeks before his wedding to the girl of his dreams (Kaley-Cuoco-Sweeting). He not only needs a Best Man, he needs seven groomsman - "A Golden Tux" as Jimmy calls it. Comedy ensues as they try to pull off a wedding where most of these guys don't even know each other. Of course, in the end they learn what love and friendship truly mean.

This movie didn't look that great from the preview and it is opening buried in the middle of January...but I have to say, I laughed like crazy. It isn't a great movie and there are plenty of cliched characters but it is a FUN movie. Don't go expecting an Oscar movie, go to have a few laughs. It is like a Hangover light - some language and guy humor so be prepared for that. It is R rated. And you will probably be able to predict the ending but so what. There was plenty of laughter in the theatre and some hooting and hollering, too. Just a fun January afternoon! If you like Kevin Hart (and he was likeable in this film) then go see it for the laughs.
