Will (Brian W. Seibert) and Mateo (Ricardo Valdez) invite their friends over to celebrate Will's 30th birthday. As the party progresses and the alcohol flows, things begin to get out of hand.

"Turtle Hill" is inconclusive from start to finish, and while that appears purposeful, it's also pretty dull.

Rated: 2/5

Andrew Schenker

Village Voice

A spirit of free play defines the proceedings, as the script, penned by the two leads, allows characters to reveal themselves through believably precise bits of booze- and weed-fueled conversation.

A special film that exudes an honesty, authenticity and transparency that is rare even among the more transparent indie fare.

Rated: 3.5/4.0

...its general tone of hipsterish pleasantness is a welcome sign of how much gay life has changed in 45 years.

Rated: 6/10

The dreariest party ever filmed. Don't bother to RSVP.

This was so much better than I thought based on the rating. It was a great movie and story. The writing and acting were really top notch.
