Sometimes charisma is everything. And Troye Sivan has that in bundles. He is just so suited for the screen, and a good actor too. A great singer for sure.
The film was very pleasant to watch. I truly enjoyed it, plus the bonus of seeing the great Ellen Burstein and Louis Gossett jr. - great cast.
I hope to see more of Troye in films, as well as music. He is such a huge talent.
Go see this movie. You will enjoy it.

Don't judge this film 'cause a famous singer plays the main character! you'll miss an amazing movie.
Great comedy, with an emotional realistic plot, great acting, fresh teen vision, and comfortingly good queer representation!!
I absolutely loved this movie, I felt connected to the characters while watching, the first half hour I didn't even want to think of finishing it, i was felling confortable so I did not want to say goodbye even though i had just meet them. I get happy, angry, sad, anxious and frustrated all in the 1 hour and 40 something minutes, for me a good movie needs to give you a different amount of emotions, a good movie will get you so into it, that the characters emotions will be yours, Three Months for sure did that to me.
As a queer young person myself, it feels great to have this kind of films to watch, not a single toxic stereotype, lots of inside jokes for the community, and a sweat but realistic love story! I loved the chemistry of the main couple, it didn't feel forced at all, Estha is akward and literal, Caleb is sarcastic and "cool", making them opposites, but even with their completely different contexts they're going through the same complicated situation so they conect at the first sight, stills nothing happens between them too early, their relationship grows in a time that feels correct, of course they like each other since the first day, but it wouldn't feel natural if they just confessed their love instantly. The movie don't try to sell you a perfect summer romance, but it does not give you a "bad guy" for their story either, you understand why they both acted in the way they did, even if you pic a side, 'cause sadly being gay is not easy for everyone.
I was really excited to watch this movie since i heard about it, i know Troye Sivan and i know his projects don't disappoint, he's got an strong concept and vision, you can see it as listening his songs and watching his music videos, he has basically been famous forever, young wolverine on X-Man, YouTuber, and now a pop star who's catching his actor self again, ever since he started being a celebrity he has done justice for the gay content, always bringing this kinds of topics to his audience, talking 'bout AIDS since his 2013 youtube era, doing a whole trilogy of music videos about not being accepted for being gay on 2015/6, and much more. It just make sense to see him in this film, he is not a radom famous singer they choose cause his image will bring lots of money. So please don't look this movie as less cause a pop star play the protagonist, he has being an actor for long, even if its not the focus of his career, he is involved in the topic too! He is a great actor, Caleb is funny, he also feels relatable, young and fresh. And if you're not familiar with Troye's music or him as a person, I definitely invite you to watch some of his content, he is worth it.
I gave this movie a 9 and not a 10 cause the ending did not gave everything i would like it to give, it catch me wishing for more, i would not say "bad" but I didn't feel it as strong or as "wow!" enough for the topic of the movie.

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.

This movie was a little bit on the sad side but it did clearly show a modern-day take on Hy-Vee. It was nice to see a show that provides some hope when it comes to dealing with HIV and AIDS. Some recent shows like it's a sin have concentrated more on the pandemic when it first came to light back in the 80s and 90s and how would that time it was viewed as a death sentence. Today there are some fantastic Pharmaceuticals out there that can lower your viral load to undetectable which also means untransmittable, and can allow for a long and prosperous life. Troye Sivan did a great job of acting especially for somebody who is relatively new to movies. I enjoyed the movie even though I was a little bit sad at the end but I won't give a spoiler.
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.
