Best Man in Grass Creek Reviews:
great movie 
2008-06-09 - it was neat to see backrounds and props from a town that i have been going to since a child
A funny, lighthearted movie 
2007-03-15 - I wouldn't want to watch this movie, if I were in the mood to watch, say, Anna Karenina. However, taken on it's own merits, this movie is wonderful. It's funny, light-hearted, and is good because the characters are good. The main character, Adam, is afraid to commit to marriage, not because he's selfish, but because he was deeply hurt in the past. His girlfriend, Holly, is ready to settle down, yet genuinely loves Adam and is willing to wait. Another character, Jimmy, comes to realize before his wedding that his fiance', Dee, is a control freak, yet he loves her anyway. Adam does everything he can to prevent Jimmy from hurting Dee in the same way he was hurt in the past. Holly and Adam are subjected to a lot of irritating people and situations in their trip to Indiana, yet they never become rude--they bear everything with grace and kindness. This movie has a sweetness that is hardly ever found in movies now days. It was a joy to watch.
Pleasantly Suprised 
2004-09-21 - My husband and I checked this out of the library and didn't expect much. We were pleasantly suprised. The gentle humor beneath the obvious humor is a delight. The extras who looked like real people (come to find out they were real people) instead of Hollywood caricatures were a delight. I enjoyed the quiet moments in the movie. So few movies nowadays have any moments without noise of some sort. I enjoyed the country scenery. And of course, I enjoyed the fact that it was such a refreshingly clean movie.
Amends- 
2004-04-22 - I wrote a very cruel review for this film despite the fact that I never saw it. I was being petty and selfish and I apologize. Please disregard the review (1 Star, Viewer from Chicago).
Thank you.
The Best Man in Grass Creek 
2003-02-16 - I am originally from Grass Creek, Indiana and that isn't the only reason why I love this video. It is funny, heartwarming, a great family video for anyone to watch, especially if you know a groom with cold feet! The movie is true (sometimes unfortunately) to Hoosiers and as I said before, it's hilarious. Small towns from the Grass Creek-Kewanna area were used in the film and locals were used as extras, my old neighbor Dave Sommers even played a sizeable role as the best man's main sales competition. Buy this movie and you'll enjoy it for sure.
