Malcolm Lee has finally given us the cherry atop the sundae with his The Final Chapters. The Best Man: The Final Chapters reunites college friends, Harper, Lance, Quentin, Murch, Candace, Shelby, and Robyn. When we catch up with the upwardly mobile friends, they are coming together to celebrate a wedding: lothario, Quentin is finally getting married to an Icon, Xiomara Amani. Lance is still grieving from the death of his beloved wife and as a result has become quite promiscuous. The group of friends are at the top of their games in their respective careers but experiencing mid-life crises for various reasons, (lack of emotional and career fulfillment, work/family imbalance, getting older, etc.) The series covers a lot of ground in its final chapters. We get a wedding, divorce, sequel movie in a movie, topical issues such as COVID-19, racism, Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+ issues, parenting parents while still raising our children and yet Malcolm Lee and the ensemble cast expertly bring it all together. The attractive cast has SO MUCH chemistry that it is a joy to see them onscreen together again. The tropical setting, lush homes, beautiful clothes and with New York as a hometown setting are all a work of art on screen. I absolutely LOVED THIS SERIES. If you were a fan of the first and second movies, then this series is an absolute must see. I binge watched it in one sitting on New Year's Day - and yeah, it's that good!
