Critics Consensus

Observant and insightful, this indie comedy takes a different tack on the "bromance" but still makes a point without sermonizing.

Where Humpday really excels is in its depiction of Ben and Andrew's relationship. After so many years apart, they speak easily and candidly to one another...

At the end of the day, boys will boys and bros will be bros. And Humpday will make your day - with laughter.

Perhaps the biggest disappointment in Humpday is Shelton's murky motivation for the porno film.

Two straight men who decided not to have sex with eachother on camera. Had the potential to be so great. I really thought it was a good idea and wanted to see more of the "why are we doing this" unfold. I wonder if "hump fest" got to see a part of it.

the plot sounds interesting, but the movie is snore-core. if it were not for the surprise ending, i would have turned it off half way through. i'm not bummed that i watched it, but on the other hand, i won't be watching it again.
