Annlee Ellingson Los Angeles Times What starts as a narcissistic endeavor becomes a larger examination of male insecurity. Dec 12, 2013 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com There are moments, however, of genuine heartache for the guy as he really begins to integrate this idea that he may be the problem far more than his penis. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Sep 26, 2020 Full Review Stephen Saito Moveable Fest Though it takes much longer for Moote to figure out than the audience, "Unhung Hero" is nothing to be ashamed of. Dec 4, 2018 Full Review Simon Foster Screen-Space Ending on a high with one of the best last lines in a movie in years, Spitz and Moote have crafted a thoughtful crowdpleaser.

jona i An intriguing premise and opportunity that is squandered by severely misguided direction. Since the creator is a comedian, perhaps an unapologetically comedic approach would have succeeded, but instead we're given a lackluster journey that often calls into question the intelligence of its whiny creator. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A weak attempt at comedy, made worse by staged scenes, genuine informed advice seemingly ignored, and the general unpleasantness of cringe humour. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting documentary, but full of bullshit in the end. Im like, just do the damn surgery, of course its incisive and there will be blood, thats just how surgeries work. I just dont understand why people are so touchy feely when it comes to cosmetic surgeries, I come from a country where these are as usual as taking your wisdom tooth out. If you know you are weak, then just dont observe the surgery. Go straight to the bed and have the doctor knock you out and you will fix your problem and not feel a thing. Argh, enough with this hipocritical speech that "what matters is only personality". We all know thats not true. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member The most absurd movie I've ever watched. Many people many opinions. I can hardly believe that for women the size is the most important thing. The sad truth is that hollow boy who made the documentary is trying to reject the only reason his ex girlfriend broke up with him - insecurity ! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member absolutely fantastic!!! starts out as hilarious but as it goes on shows ALOT of heart and turns into a great documentary surprise. a must watch for every guy whether your dick is big small average, whatever it shows its about more than that Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Every single negative review of this film has completely missed the entire point of it's existence. Whether or not the ending is predictable, or you like or dislike the Moote and his style has nothing to do with the message of the film. The biggest take away that makes me love this documentary is that the pressure, expectations, and shame that society puts on men regarding their penis size is hugely damaging. This is a story of a man that has been traumatized and the struggle that he goes through to overcome that trauma. If you are a man and have never worried about your penis size, then great! This film should show you the kind of damage that your teasing and ridicule can have on others. Just like there is an entire industry devoted to the prevention of body shaming for women and breaking society's expectations for what a women needs to be beautiful, this film shows exactly the same struggle for men. Breaking the expectations of what a man needs to be thought of as masculine isn't easy. All of you who think this is so predicable should think about that the next time you laugh at a small penis joke, or listen to a woman who bases a man's entire worth on his penis. That's what this film is about. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
