A few bestmen

A few best men (2011) is Australian-British comedy film written by Dean Craig and directed by Stephan Elliot. The film is about four friends and one of them is getting married. David Locking (Xavier Samuel) and Mia Ramme (Laura Brent) meet each other in vacation in Australia, and fell in love with the first sight. David returns home and tells the story to his friends. Now it is time for wedding and David wants all his friends Tom (Kris Marshall), Graham (Kevin Bishop) and Luke (Tim Draxl) come to wedding as best men. And so all four travelled to Australia.

Tom thinks that you can’t have nice bachelor party without weed, and with Graham they go to get some. The next morning there is a lot of trouble. The guys don’t remember anything. Havoc ensues when the trio accidentally steal a lot of drugs, are chased by a mobster, and get the father-in-law’s sheep stoned. That was not the kind of wedding day they planned. Mia’s relative are conservative and they don’t look the ”bumbling around” in any good.

I didn’t give much attention to music. It fit in the movie, but it didn’t give you overwhelming experience. It’ actually the same with camera work. I think it is generally pretty rare to be praising the camera work.

The plot wasn’t so bad but it was made badly. It’s sad to see a movie like that. I don’t know why it is like that, but my friends agreed to it. Because of the poor story, the ending was predictable.
