Critic Reviews

  • Dennis Harvey, Variety

    A poorly crafted grab-bag of ideas barely elaborated upon enough to sustain a 20-minute short.

  • Neil Genzlinger, New York Times

    When a movie aspires to be gay pornography but can't even manage that, well, you know you've got a bad movie.

  • Jessica Grose, Village Voice

    Is Leo schizophrenic? Did he kill his ex-wife? Did he have an ex-wife? Did he kill Teddy? Is Teddy dead? Who knows, and frankly, who cares?

  • Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall

    Artful and intriguing, but ultimately difficult to connect with

  • David Noh, Film Journal International

    One would like to say that gay indies are better than ever, but then something like Sun Kissed comes along and drags the whole shebang down to rock bottom again.
