Top CriticThe film aspires to the splendor of The Living End and Totally F***ed Up, but Verow's passion and talent, unlike Gregg Araki's, is not equal to his ambition.

... Todd Verow's overstuffed Vacationland promises more than it delivers in just about every sense.

Top CriticA generic coming-of-age movie whose arrival on the scene suggests that the audience for gay indie clunkers is inexhaustible.

Top CriticThough Verow attended the American Film Institute and has made more than a dozen shorts and features since 1994, his low-budget gay-themed films are characterized by phenomenal indifference to framing, sound quality and performance.
