Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Strong performances by the three leads ... help to make up for the story's sliver of a plot.
– Rene Rodriguez,

rotten:
Everyone involved in the film seems better than the material.

fresh:
A steamy love triangle that may earn our attention primarily on prurient interest, but ends up being honestly involving.
– Terry Lawson,

rotten:
With a distinct lack of action, Machado resorts to far too many close-ups of his stars until, as good-looking as they are, you tire of looking at them.
– Ruthe Stein,
San Francisco Chronicle,

rotten:
Everything feels obvious and by-the-numbers, as if director and co-writer Sergio Machado was constrained by archetypes and narrative tradition.
