With the genderliberace lifestyles of the modern era, but thats becausue im a grumpy old man, that has been strait since being concieved, and the closest ive come to gayplay is hugging my buddies, bashing around nightclubbing in the mist of alcoholic mayhem, admitting saying ''i do love you''in the heat of the moment, because friendship is love in a way i think. I used to have at least 15 buddies in my friendgroup, wemet each day, and the weekends where the same, ''drunk and happy'' as norw.pop group ''prudence'' sang half a century ago. Today though ive managed to loose contact with all of them, ive become an orthodoskly grumpy old man...
this film is a film of summer and llove and stain of the pain where the itching of living out your lifestyle hit you hard in the bellybutton. It can easily be divided in five chapters, the incident phase, after first test, after second test and the epilougous moments of the third test. What is tested is what gay people fear the most since leaving their closets, and thats HIV.
A very well acted , ok written stgaylife in a coming of age boy in south florida. Its decent filmatographed and filled to the brim with easyllisten' music and song that will hang with you in days of the aftermath. I do love this movie style of casual living and social realism when its durably done, and '' three months '' come s under the umbrella of this definition of mine. Though its not perfect its a recommend.

Overall, quite a pleasant movie and refreshing for the subject matter it covers, to a fault almost. It's nice to see a movie about HIV that isn't all doom and gloom - at the same time, the film feels weirdly low-stakes as it tends to undercut any narrative tension by always trying to downplay the seriousness. The film's central theme - waiting - isn't a very dynamic action, and so the movie just kind of plods along, from scene to scene. Some supporting characters feel underdeveloped, and so some of the dramatic moments later in the film feel unearned. As a comedy, however, it works well - no particularly outrageous scenes, just a steady stream of chuckles. The central love story is lovely, with some nice chemistry between Caleb and Estha.
Troye Sivan shines in the comedic moments of the film and seems very comfortable on screen, although he struggles just a bit with some of the story's more serious scenes. He really makes the character his own - it helps that he's pretty. All supporting performances are serviceable, Brianna Tju and Viveik Kalra play their roles well. A delightful debut by writer/director Jared Frieder!
I recommend watching it - it's nice, simple, touching, amusing, heartfelt, and we get so few queer films like it.

It's bugged me a little when we have fine teen films like Never Rarely Sometimes Always, or even Plan B, whose delicately deals with their serious theme without falling into too archetypical, and then we have Three Months.
I know it's an MTV film, hence being light and glittery has to be in its repertoire. However, the crammed of the late 2000's/early 2010's teen films clichés into the narrative doesn't necessarily make it more than just average at best.

Not sure what happened but it's like half a movie... like they couldn't be bothered to finish it off properly. Shame as what it does it does pretty well and the acting it top notch. Sort of doesn't know what to do with itself after solid early premise. So the experience is a fade out to black and feeling a little short changed. The drama the dialogue the storyboard lacks purpose and definition by the third act. Troy's Sivian show real premise throughout and holds what is provided together with gusto and confidence. The soundtrack is also classy lofi and non pretentious. I get that the movie probably didn't want to get to gritty, too dramatic, too generic or predictable but it ends up feeling too light weight for me by the end.
I like the attitude and people living in a non discriminated environment. Problems not change how we live but attitude does. I love the spirit of this movie and we are all equal, treasure the time when you are young.
