"​Rating: 9/10... Not only is the script taut and ripe with brilliant dialogue for the performers to spew; visually and thematically it's intensely engrossing and lush...it's intensely watchable, brilliantly acted, and so capably maneuvered on every level technically..."
- Chris Conduit, The Conduit Speaks
​
"Films like The Guy Knows Everything reaffirms my belief that new, exciting and original cinema is still out; it’s alive and kicking, and it only takes someone with a set of balls to bring films like this to a wider audience... This is a truly terrific film that kept my attention completely; one moment I was laughing out loud, the next I was chewing my finger nails. The Guy Knows Everything, so he already knows that I thought this was an outstanding film."
