Lou Lumenick New York Post Julien Hernandez's micro-budgeted, gay-themed vanity project Sex, Politics & Cocktails gives all three a bad name. Rated: 0/4 Jul 1, 2005 Full Review Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News Enthusiastic performances help, but without a logical script or confident direction, the fizz very quickly goes flat. Rated: 1.5/4 Jul 1, 2005 Full Review Dana Stevens New York Times Structurally, Sex, Politics and Cocktails is wildly, almost frantically inventive ... But no amount of directorial trickery can mask the essential vacuousness of the story and its characters. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 30, 2005 Full Review Don Willmott Filmcritic.com We've seen this before. A lot. Rated: 2/5 Sep 13, 2005 Full Review Maitland McDonagh TV Guide It treads such well-worn ground that you can't help but want a little more substance. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 1, 2005 Full Review Chuck Wilson L.A. Weekly This peculiar little comedy, shot on digital video, gets points for editorial pizzazz, but earns a big zero for content.

Audience Member Pretty Funny... Thought it would b better!!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Perhaps this would be better if it was less pretentious & back to the basic narrative way rather than trying to be something different but no good. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting enough concept. Don't think that the writing, acting or editing was good enough to hold this movie together. I really didn't even find any of the characters interesting. Sorry, was funny at times but not enough to hold my attention. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I DO ADMIRE THE DIRECTOR ATTEMPTING SOMETHING NEW AND DIFFERENT, BUT IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. THERE ARE SOME AMUSING SCENES THOUGH. CHEAPLY MADE. NICE SHORT LENGTH. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
