The Best Man (1999) Quinton Was Right All Along!

I knew I matured when I realized Q was the only real homie I'd want out the whole crew. Murch is an honorary mention

[@FreeVoni]

It took me 23 years, 2 movies and 8 episodes for me to see that Harper is really the villain! He basically thought his friends were too stupid to figure out the book. Cheated on Robin, then proposed in the middle of his best friends wedding, with NO RING just to avoid taking accountability. Like he’s truly trash. And he never learns from his past. Like he’s such a narcissist. Poor Robin didn’t deserve any of this

[@ARaebow]

Literally he was about to have sex with Jordan while he is in a whole relationship and he confused on why she felt insecure I'm like Harper are you dense? 😭

[@jaylathinks1549]

What 8 episodes are you talking about? Did you just give a spoiler?

[@FreeVoni]

@@jaylathinks1549 no. Harper cheated on Robin in the first movie with Jordan. He’s always been the villain

[@jaylathinks1549]

When? I thought that was a flash back? I need to watch the movie again and start a marathon on the 'Best man' series because it's been so long and I think I missed a movie plus the last installment.

[@ARaebow]

@@jaylathinks1549 Nah remember the flashback part was when Harper and Jordan were in college about to do it but they got a distraction. Years later he's in a relationship with Robin he's in New York for Lance wedding and old flames started coming back up when Jordan and Harper wanted to have sex with each other

[@kristineilochi4615]

The reason why Lance didn't confront Mia in the first movie about her sleeping with Harper is because Lance told Harper that since he did her so wrong with all of his infidelity that if she ever did the same to him, he'd deserve it and he wouldn't even question her about it. Well, THAT came back to bite him in the ass. 😄😄😄

[@freddy8479]

He couldn't deal with "HARPER'S BETRAYAL!!!"

[@tipharris6352]

[@PapaLobo94]

And yet in the second movie, Mia comes forward about her side of the story and told Lance that she made a choice to hurt him by choosing Harper knowing that it was wrong

[@DetoxMyLifeWithTNichol]

Best Man is basically one of those movies that confirms how much men enjoy bragging about the women they have slept with, but they never consider the karma that comes with sleeping with women who are basically pawns in a much bigger game of life. Basically, this movie just shows us how messy men can be just because their egos and their determination for success can overpower their dignity and respect for others.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

See while that's true, it also shows how mess women can make shit too. That was the whole point of the Jordan character. She instigated all this shit and on top of that tried sleeping with a man knowing he had a girl/fiance and didn't even care.

[@aaronkenyon7112]

​@anthonyanderson9303 Bottom line, both men and women ain't shit when karma comes to bite you in the ass. Nobody is above taking accountability for their actions. That's my take away

[@marisadiorr9138]

Harper ,Lance ,& Mia was equally as wrong Lance constantly cheated on Mia and She got fed up with it to the point that she had to sleep with the one of his best friends when she should have just left the relationship and got with another man who was going to treat her right .. Harper was trifling because Mia and Lance were both coming to him about their relationship.. he should have knew not to cross that line with Mia because she used him to get back at his best friend ..Harper should have known better than to do that... Jordan was trifling as well too because she knew Harper had a fiance AKA girlfriend and was still willing to have sex with him without any remorse whatsoever.. Quinton wasn't really trifling he was just messy

[@joshuamcdowell9745]

Mia took accountability for what she did in the second film. I assumed it was because she felt guilty. Lance and Harper's friendship was no longer the same after Lance found out what Mia and Harper did. And Mia was also dying.

[@brandonbates9259]

And Murch was completely in the dark about all of this 🤣🤣 his only issue was he should of been stood up to Shelby

[@freddy8479]

Do you recall in the Bathroom scene, in which Lance saying to Harper about SHE FORGAVE HIM FOR HIS DISCRETIONS AND ITS MIRACLE? He said that if she RETALIATED against him that "HE WOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT?" He was prepare to deal with Mia's possible betrayal, BUT NOT HARPER'S!!!! HARPER WENT AGAINST "THE CODE!!" BTW: Jordan's slap was "🔥 AND SEXY AF!!!"

[@blewprent]

I just went back and watched The Best Man Holiday and realized how incredible the writing was. The balance of emotion and humor is unfounded. It's such a sad movie - literally brings you to tears - and then Terrance Howard breaks the sadness everytime with his wits! Lol. I like how we come to realize that his character makes his friends face their ugly truths, but he's truly a good friend who cared about all of his brothers.

I truly thought Harper thought Lance would never read the book because he was an athlete. He thought let me hide it in a book I can get it off my chest and Lance will never figure it out because he is more focused on the field than on books. I loved Q he was the best comic relief😂

[@embracethymelanin_6518]

But dedicated that book to both Mia and Lance like ofc they were gonna read he was not smart at all 😂

[@nitagentris941]

The "kiss to the frontal lobe" is what made Lance snap. Lance let Harper know he knew exactly what he meant by that and wanted to rip him to shreads.

[@salacioussummers]

Lance needed to find out because he needed to see that he put Mia upon an impossible pedastal that she would've never been able to be worthy of. He also needed to feel what betrayal feels like as he had her feel that on numerous occasions. I never really blamed Mia too much for her indiscretion, because as women we can do anything a man can do, but we put some stank on it! To do it to his best friend?! *chef's kiss* And that gave her the secret satisfaction to deal with Lance's ongoing cheating, knowing she already won the game, whether he knew it or not. 😹 What's good for the goose baby...cause it ain't no fun when the rabbit got the gun! 😹😹😹

I melted, I'm not gone lie....I thought to myself, "When did Morris Chestnut get fine like this"? because my memory of him being Ricky (Boyz N the Hood), I was not checking for him then.

I agree that Q was the realest. Harper was an idiot. He had the audacity to air out his dirty laundry in a book for all the world to see then panicked about the truth coming out before the wedding. Did he really think the reaction would be different if Lance got married before reading the book? It was just stupid and arrogant to put that indiscretion in a book. But aside from his stupidity, Lance absolutely should have talked things out with Mia prior to getting married. I guess we were supposed to be touched by the fact that he still married her in spite of knowing she wasn't perfect but he was a dog too. They needed to work through past before making such a huge commitment. Anyway the cast was all fine AF. That slow-mo of chocolatey Morris still haunts my dreams from time to time. 🤣🤣 Thanks for another great review.

I kinda agree with you on how the main characters were rather hypocritical and self-righteous.

This movie is basically pretty cringey to watch as an adult, but I can’t look away. 👀 As a 9 year old little girl, I knew what was going on, but I realize now that basically this was just a toxic group of friends who became even more toxic because of a book that should have never seen the day of light. I’m still trying to figure out how it’s possible for any of them to still be friends with each other. Quentin and Julian were basically the only ones that seemed like the less complicated and messy of the bunch. But of course, everybody had their flaws, but Quentin and Julius just seemed very honest and genuine about who they were.

He absolutely had no right to react like that because he had been cheating on her throughout college and she and him had broken up because of it so she was technically free to pursue, Harper didn't know that was going to happen he didn't plan to do that with her it just happened the attraction was there before lance it just wasn't strong enough to override the innocent friendship they had; when lance cheated she was devastated and she wanted to rid herself of the pain he caused her so she turned to the only person who she trust that made her feel special that was Harper; it wasn't about revenge she admitted that wasn't what she was after it was about her feeling whole again and Harper provided that; their bond was something that went way beyond anything lance and the others could understand that's why that intimate moment happened between them they both were in need of a reminder of the love they want and deserve and in that moment they found it and shared it with each other; to be brutally honest I was actually hoping that they would get together instead because they were very close and had so much in common, Bro code my foot you don't expect to be respected when you are disrespecting someone else; Lance was messing around with dozens of girls so he had no right to react the way he did because of his own stupidity for cheating on her in the 1st place, he got what he deserved, it was all those years ago, it was in the past so he should have kept it in the past and just moved on, If I was writing the story I would have wrote it where Harper was giving what he was getting back to Lance; kicking his ass left and right lecturing him on how hypocritical he is in getting all upset with him for something that happened eons ago in college when he was the one being stupid cheating on mia the way he did; she turned to someone she trusted and he was there for her while he was out busy getting his cock sucked; it wasn't planned or deliberately orchestrated against him and what happened between them was none of his goddamm business he lost that right the moment he stuck his penis in another woman, if he ended up losing her to Harper because he was the better man for her OH WELL HIS LOSS; dont be an idiot next time someone else comes along looking to give their heart to you lance my man, both Jordan and Quinton needed to keep their noses out of Harper's business that was there issue; He may have put his secret in the book and they may have been the only 2 that picked up on that hint it should have stayed that way because given Lance's behavior in the past he did not need to know or deserve to know anything!!💯🔥😁😉👍👍!

[@prettytee1978]

Loved your commentary for this video & your re-enactments 😂 you sounded just like the actual characters lol

[@ycartyahoo]

Harper is so cocky! He is a great writer - be inspired by your life but don't document it almost verbatim.

[@rayasunsh9]

After All is Said and Done is a beautifully written song!!! love this soundtrack also, Harper been the villain. since 99.

[@rxtsec1]

i just saw the final chapters and your so right. these characters ain't bleep

[@lintonharvey560]

I was about 19-20 when I saw this movie. Then I took it as a refreshing take on “positive” black characters instead of the hood movies I was used to because they were educated, had money and were upwardly mobile. Now that I’m grown-grown, I still love these characters while realizing most of them were just bourgie black trash. Doughboy had more honor and principles than most of them.

Facts!

[@GloriaWright-mc1iy]

I love Q characters because he was real

[@princesscarolyn5716]

I loved this review 😂 you are so funny. “Now we have no one shaking ass. We’re doing the electric slide.” We’ve come full circle 😂 for real everyone except Mia and Robyn (I stand by Mia) was trash.

[@stephaniegoodlow7462]

I took a WHOLE moment for Morris Chestnut. 🥵

[@kincamell]

Gratitude. Peace to the cast and Malcom D Lee. Ps I think Soul Man is a massive classic as well.

[@terrellwilliams5278]

He was a real sneak in that movie 🐍

[@2516562101]

I honestly feel like the REAL reason why Lance never confronted Mia about it was because it would reveal that Harper was the better man in bed lol. That man would've had a heart attack. Especially when in the second movie he choked up when he said "You chose him."

[@GoddesssofMind]

I love when you start singing , I be singing right along with you. You have great vibes I enjoy your commentary

[@babyboy8603]

I love your review. After watching this, I would love to see you review The Best Man Holiday.

[@hsg57]

Mia was playing chess not checkers

[@MrParker-ux2mh]

Your commentary was super on point as per your usual. But what I really appreciate is how you mentioned Magnum P.I. on here!!! A was definitely a detective!!! 00:02:22

[@TaeBeauti]

Outstanding review! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽The Best Man is one of my FAVORITE movies!!!!!!❤❤❤ ❤❤ The fact that Lance for gave Mia, due to his indiscretions and married her after he found out spoke volumes to me. In reality I don’t believe any man would still marry a woman after he found out!

[@hogscattle7877]

Who's watching this after streaming The Final Chapter series? Talk about 'FULL CIRCLE' !!!!!! lol

[@tiffanycorbin8079]

"Soft spoken love" I'd f ING died 😅😅😅😅

[@shellyreynolds8948]

She was a woman scorned, and her revenge was way deep. Still I'd say since he sees how it hurts it was best that he man up and get married. It's so strange how the view is women should just continue to take all the crap. Folks don't know how to act when we toss it right back. The characters were flawed, and more growth would've been great to see. Still even in reality there are those that will never do the work to bask within the harmony of growth. I think he wrote the book wanting to come clean deep inside. Still hiding within the masks he hadn't learned to remove. Him knowing that it could ruin not only his relationship with his best friend, but also the wedding. Sometimes the route to that trip down the aisle is a rocky one. Plus the fact she decided to try a bit of stepping out on her own is karma. Don't dish it out if you can't take it back in. Robin was the outsider. So it makes sense that as friends none of them would have issues with Jordan and Harper seeing what could've been. I mean at that point they hadn't even met Robin yet.

[@franksanchez1716]

I’m here for this since the best man 3 coming out

[@robyngreen537]

The best part is he beat him up about the book and sleeping with his soon to be wife and the second one is trash 🗑 and bad garbage cans and they should’ve left it alone
