...is an unexpectedly challenging and thought-provoking piece of filmmaking. Certainly the “Garden State” overtones might cause some to dismiss it, but I’ve rarely found a film that took temptation and matrimonial anxiety so seriously and so selfishly. A---Brian Orndorf (FilmJerk.com)
Things get depressing in Kiss. To its credit, the character arc that Michael and Jenna follow stays brutally honest. It just results in heaps of sadness for them and, in turn, us. At least we have to perfect soundtrack to match our mood.  --Sean O'Connell (MovieWeb)
