An awkward, phony melodrama you don't need to be homophobic to hate.

Shelter may only be shoreline deep, and its ending fanciful, but the film captures the beauty, thrill and ache of young love and extracts a casual joy out of the process.
Boxoffice Magazine

The first theatrical release from the here! Network's Independent Film Initiative, shaves the edges off the genre's hoariest tendencies, for which it deserves credit and will hopefully be the start of a trend. But it's still an uninspiring drama.

Rowe displays new authority and confidence, as if lately he's been looking in the mirror and seeing himself, rather than that other, more famous blond.

There's real chemistry between the two actors.

At the epicenter of this tale is Zach (Trevor Wright is always a pleasure to watch but the measure of his acting talent requires a script with more scope to reveal his depth).
April 04, 2008
A coming-out, coming-of-age movie that is mediocre and very well-intentioned.
March 28, 2008
Shelter rises very high indeed, thanks to a superb performance by Trevor Wright in the lead role, a strong supporting cast, very good cinematography and, most of all, emotional authenticity.

It feels like it's written by a film school freshman that's trying to be innovative, but everything feels forced and flat.

Shelter is a gay movie like other American gay movies. Boy meets boy. Boy comes out. Boys fight opposition. Opposition caves. If there's life beyond the closet, too few movies know it exists.
September 21, 2008
Complex characterizations by Wright and Rowe and outstanding cinematography by Joseph White make this film particularly worth checking out.
New York Times

A confused young artist is torn between his family and his future in Shelter, a sensitive romantic drama from the writer and director Jonah Markowitz.
