Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Sunshine State lacks the brilliance of Sayles' most dynamic offerings, but, for those who don't mind an unhurried, deliberate narrative pace, this is a worthwhile offering.
– James Berardinelli,
ReelViews,

fresh:
This is geographic history as personal history, a look at a vanishing world before the tide of progress immerses it. It's also superb independent filmmaking.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,

fresh:
Sunshine State is an efficient helping of Sayles, insightful even when it's not richly entertaining or imbued with apparent passion.
– Robert Denerstein,
Denver Rocky Mountain News,

rotten:
Sunshine State has the structure, the theme, the style and, at 141 minutes, the length of a great John Sayles film. What it doesn't have, alas, is the merit.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,

fresh:
Sunshine State resembles Sayles' sketchbook more than his finished work, and we might hope that something more polished might spring from it.
