Reviews:

April Swartz, Badass Digest:

"One of the greatest films ever made on the subject of brother-catharsis."

John Jarzemsky, Twitch:

"This film accomplishes what has largely eluded American comedy for decades, and the Duplass brothers deserve nothing but praise for their stunning achievement."

John DeFore, The Hollywood Reporter:

"An undiluted dose of the low-budget sensibility that attracted stars like Ed Helms and John C. Reilly to the Duplass Brothers."

Matt Goldberg, Collider:

"Like [The Duplasses'] other movies, the low-key story, characters, and unscripted dialogue keeps the film feeling loose and natural albeit slight and somewhat disposable."

Michelle Orange, Movieline:

"If the runoff of several more successful Duplass-driven or otherwise Duplass-oriented projects (including 'Jeff, Who Lives at Home,' 'Cyrus,' and 'Humpday') had swirled into a single stream and then pooled in an Austin ditch at summer’s height, 'Do-Deca' might be the movie some avid scavenger fished out."

"The Do-Deca-Pentathlon" is now available on iTunes and VOD and is playing in select theaters.
