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.

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!

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.

Los Angeles Times

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.

Rated: 1/5

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."

Budget indie-house comfort food for the '90s-romcom-besotted soul.

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.

Rated: C+

Cinemalogue

There are some scattered amusing moments among the supporting characters, but the protagonist is consistently smug and pretentious.
