Weaver's last ditch attempt to upend rom-com convention and rewrite the movie as a skeevy lout's comeuppance hardly makes up for the clichd slog that comes before. Go to Full Review

Imagine Tucker Max minus the charm and you've got . . . well, Tucker Max, but also Blayne Weaver, the star-writer-director of the indie rom-com "6 Month Rule." Go to Full Review

If the plotting and payoffs of this love triangle are a bit problematic and less satisfying than one wished, there are also pleasant inversions to be found in the film's finale, reminding viewers that every down is a prelude to an up, and vice versa. Go to Full Review

01/23/2017 Fun and well acted indie! I've seen other Blayne Weaver films and they always deliver. Everyone in the cast is engaging and highly watchable. I recommend it. See more 11/20/2014 Boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy almost gets girl back,,,.typical but solid chick flick See more 08/06/2014 bad title, misleading synopsis, but OK little film. lead man kinda wins you over See more 04/02/2014 a love it or hate it flick. .depends if you're a dreamer. .i loved it . .fave of yr See more 03/30/2014 Boring! ZzZzZz!!! couldn't hold my attention and I had to turn it off. I am assuming I can guess exactly how it all plays out too. None of the cast was interesting either. snore fest! See more 09/14/2013 When the same guy acts and directs his own movie it is hard to critic. In one sense acting was ok, not great and the script was written for a B rated movie. It was much similar to the break up movie with Jennifer Aniston. It was boring at times, couldn't keep my attention. See more Read all reviews
