Reception

Josiah Teal of *Film Threat* gave the film a fresh score, writing that it "...has a lot of laughs and fun where it counts."[2]

Tim Brennan of *About Boulder* commented that while he had "serious issues with the storytelling and comedy," the film "looks and feels like it cost a hell of a lot more than a hundred grand."[3]

Jacob Richardson from *Film Focus Magazine* noted: "Malibu Crush does exactly that to the brief flashes of quality cinema mixed in amongst its otherwise chaotic energy. Ultimately, it's tough to recommend Malibu Crush, but it isn't tough to recommend Pratt and Valentini as ones to keep an eye on."[4]
