A high-school senior (Brad Hallowell) ditches his girlfriend for a gay romance with his best friend.

V.A. Musetto

New York Post

The autobiographical script meanders and the acting never solidifies. Besides, the leads look too old to be in high school -- maybe even college.

Rated: 1/4

Nathan Lee

New York Times

A generic coming-of-age movie whose arrival on the scene suggests that the audience for gay indie clunkers is inexhaustible.

Rated: 1.5/5

... Todd Verow's overstuffed Vacationland promises more than it delivers in just about every sense.

Maitland McDonagh

TV Guide

Though Verow attended the American Film Institute and has made more than a dozen shorts and features since 1994, his low-budget gay-themed films are characterized by phenomenal indifference to framing, sound quality and performance.

Rated: 1.5/4

With such attractive leads, more could have been done with this film and it's train wreck of an ending.
