It's a Summer Film! Ratings & Reviews
Vague Visages
Ben Flanagan
"'It's a Summer Film!' has a genuine emotional core, which layers each wild twist into another heartrending moment."
Beyond the Cinerama Dome
Tina Kakadelis
At its core, It's a Summer Film! is a romantic comedy about detesting romantic comedies, a samurai movie by way of science fiction. A movie about the ineffable experience of moviemaking both as the film crew and as the audience who gets to enjoy it.
Clapper
Carson Timar
With both a loving charm and surprisingly bleak emotional punch, it is hard not to find something within It's a Summer Film! to enjoy.

Spencer Perry
It's A Summer Film! has something for everyone: humor, drama, romance, and a surprising sci-fi subplot; it's the kind of movie that reminds you why you love movies.
Psychocinematography
Pieter-Jan Van Haecke
It's a Summer Film is a highly entertaining film that offers a nostalgic and touching dive into youthful passion and romantic feelings and lighthearted celebration of indie-filmmaking and often-forgotten beauty of post-war period films.

Selina Lee
It's a Summer Film!'s time-travel plotline may be a little muddled, but it doesn't bog down its characters' aw-shucks earnestness and cinema-loving charm.
