Reviews

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
zif ofoz If you actually bother to watch this movie and you see the flat screen TV fireplace (which for some unknown reason is set right in front on a large window) then you have seen the best part of this production. Here's what happens - Frankenface (David) is obsessing over his upcoming 50th birthday because he feels he hasn't obtained his ideal level of living. Which happens to be something like a cute little house with a white picket fence, a dog, and a husband to greet him at home everyday after work. What gay man wants that nonsense?? So you can see which direction this flick is going.His boyfriend (Greg) is an albino gym rat with a bad case of alopecia! What brought Frankenface and albino gym rat together in the first place is never explained. But Frankenface is so whiney and needy and self absorbed that gym rat just wants to get away from Frankenface. Gym rat tells Frankenface to grow-up and get a life. Enter Mr Lonely Hearts (Shane) from Indiana, of all places. Well Mr Lonely Hearts and Frankenface just hit it off right from the start! Gym rat sees this as his out from whiney boring Frankenface and splits. Then Mr Lonely Hearts suggest to Frankenface they go back to Indiana to live a lovers life. The end....That's it people! Frankenface moans and groans and whines about turning 50 and his oh so empty life throughout this entire movie. Gym rat repeatedly says to Frankenface 'get a life', and Mr Lonely Hearts just smiles and looks happy that he finally scored a dick he has convinced to go back with him to Indiana.Who in hell wants to move to Indiana?
wendycharles1 BEST DAY EVER" is a sweet, hopeful, and romantic film about finding love at 50. Congratulations to writer Jeff London, and the wonderful actor Mel England, who plays David, a man going through a mid-life crisis. Will he ever find true love and fulfill his romantic and career dreams when he feels time is running out? The film, based on writer and director Jeff London's own life, is a story about falling in love with a younger man, and the doubts created by the age difference.The lead actor Mel England gives a lovely, nuanced and brilliant performance, and the entire cast is wonderful as well. This is a great independent film.
Irishchatter I really enjoyed watching this film. You know it really would tell how people these days care about the age differences in falling in love. I mean so what? You fall in love with the person whom you have chosen to be with. It's not like everyone should care because it doesn't honestly matter at the end of the day. Heck, I'm so glad that James paired up David and Shane together, they were totally meant for each other. It was well that David broke up with Greg. He was totally someone else that he didn't need to be with in the first place. Why? Because the pair of them had different opinions and of course, Greg seemed pretty bossy! David definitely did the right choice in moving on!You know, the most outstanding man in this film was Ace. That fella just was so inspiring the way he was talking about stuff that were common sense. Life is not always a box of cherries, there can be pits involved too so enjoy your lives together in this present! I'm like wow, those guys are so lucky to have great friends around them for support!This movie is so underrated, it should win an Oscar!
jbale-54380 I was skeptical about watching this movie at first.... Considering I'm going through what I believe is a mid - life crisis .. Did I want to watch a movie about someone's similar fate .? And being a straight man could I relate to a Gay mans experience .? Well Am I sure glad I put those worries to rest and watched Best Day Ever..!!!! Powerful and poignant are the first 2 words to come to mind after watching it ... Getting older is universal , all races,creeds , sexual orientations ,everyone grows old , there are no exceptions..... And Best Day Ever handles this truthfully and beautifully .,!! Mel England is the actor who anchors the film , he is stellar .! There is not a false note in his performance and the supporting players all do fine work ..!! This film gave me hope , and the world we live in , that is rare.....
