Review of Five Aces

Five Aces (1999)
7/10
GOOD SOUL SEARCHING MOVIE, BUT BAD PARTY MOVIE!
20 July 2003
Charlie Sheen & company give good performance of the last of the five aces that gets married. Leave it to the gang to plan one last hurrah for the last man to get "dragged to the alter."

Sheen's character loves his fiance, but, listening to his buddies could get him in trouble as he sees all the troubles that life will put you through. From the one who cheated on his wife at least once a week to the one who fires cannon shells right outside his front door.

The middle of the movie was kind of a drag, but it's what make the movie. It tells about what makes a person who they are and why they've become the way they are. Tia Carrere was a waist in this movie, not haveing a very big part.

The emotional ups and downs of our everyday lives are what this movie is all about. There are some funny parts to this movie, but if you are looking for a comedy, this ain't it. I gave it a 7 for it's emotional value, but 3 would be the vote from the comedy standpoint.
