    Honestly not bad. A little too pessimistic at times but overall a good watch.

    Just the worst. Thee most painfully blatant vanity project by the filmmaker, who by the way, is a horrible actor, horrible writer and a horrible director. Genuinely one of the worst films I’ve ever sat through.

    Quirky indie dialogue that worked and a douche main character actually getting formidably challenged not just by love interests but also his friend? Wow. Truly a gem

    When I was looking up movies that Martin Starr was in I stumbled on The Six Month rule so got that from EBay and I am absolutely happy I did!  Blayne Weaver writes, directs, and stars in this comedy about friendship and love and how we all have no real clue what we are…

Grueling vanity piece.

The film is far too indulgent with its lead character to do more than hint at the ways that one form of male egotism can morph into another.
