Dennis Harvey Variety 11/23/2006
A poorly crafted grab-bag of ideas barely elaborated upon enough to sustain a 20-minute short. Go to Full Review

When a movie aspires to be gay pornography but can't even manage that, well, you know you've got a bad movie. Go to Full Review
Jessica Grose Village Voice 11/21/2006
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? Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

kellen C @Hyperskreem Apr 7 The acting is terrible; like they’re doing a read-thru of the script for the first time And Teddy whining through his line delivery makes it even more intolerable than it already is. To be fair, the script didn’t give them much to work with-mindless drivel. It’s trying to be Bergman-Lynch with the cinematography, which is done very well; and so is the music but there’s not much of a plot and after 60 minutes you don’t really care what the "mystery" or lack there of is. This could have easily been a 30 minute short film with an open ended ending and it would have been tolerable. But the acting is terrible; it’s almost comical.

Not certain if the filmmaker is aspiring to be Ingmar Bergman or simply has no idea how to write a script. At any rate, the results are a mess. I'll never get this 90 minutes back again! See more Un H @RT49539055 11/22/2020 messy is quite possibly the best way to describe this film. both good and bad... but once you see past that...there's a lot to enjoy here, or at the very least appreciate.

See more 10/10/2009 Even modest production and some really weak acting can't really cripple this David Lynch -style erotic thriller. It's dreamlike, odd, compelling and challenges the viewer with a really cool broken structure. A film that makes you want to see it many times over, and after a few viewings I cas say that it has enough mystery and subtle themes to offer new substance for those times. See more Read all reviews
