Ratings and reviews

"Be the energy that you want to attract." This is a small summary of what these 4 best friends are. They are amazingly talented and if you have been following on Youtube, you can see that they are not just the cliché Youtuber. Personal side remark: Before I became a religious follower (but not in a creepy way) I was dating a guy and he talked so bad about the LGBTQ+ community yet he preached about how you should love and respect yourself. No my friends, this guy is no longer in my life.

This movie offers an intimate look at the Try Guys that really makes them seem like you just want to be their best friends. I'm so proud of them and all they've accomplished, they're doing incredible work and they have kept me sane in the craziest year I've lived through. I didn't expect them to make me cry several times, it was so moving in parts.

Wow. When I found out they were going to do a movie, I thought it was going to be their tour on DVD. I am always afraid to watch documentaries like this, because often they tend to be suberficial. The tittle is litterally the best description. It was an amazing experinece watching this movie. The Try Guys, like always surpassed my expectations. It was real, respectful, showed them vulnerable, their commitment to us, their responsability to their craft is all inspiring.
