Inspired by one of Burns’ favorite films, Fellini’s “I Vitellini,” “The Groomsmen” takes place in the days leading up to a wedding that serves as a reunion for five 30-something best friends. The film ponders the question of why these working-class young men have put off the so-called marks of adulthood that the previous generation achieved straight out of high school.

CRITIC REVIEWS

"Edward Burns' best riff yet on guys trying to sort out their feelings about women."

~ Kirk Honeycutt, The Hollywood Reporter

"This is the movie I believe Burns has been trying to make since The Brothers McMullen, 11 years ago."

~ Mick LaSalle, The San Francisco Chronicle
