Reception
Sand Castles received widespread critical acclaim while playing on the film festival circuit. Critic David Appleford of Valley Screen and Stage gave the film a glowing review, writing: "Backed by an outstanding, atmospheric score from musician Todd Maki and solid performances from Hodges, Trainor and Spence, plus an effective appearance from Clint Howard whose somewhat creepy presence only adds to the overall mystery of Lauren's kidnapper, director Clenét Verdi-Rose has delivered a feature that needs to venture further than the confines of the festival circuit."
Views on Film gave a "thumbs up" rating the film 3 out of 4 stars and calling it "powerful" while singling out praise for the performances of Jordon Hodges, Randy Spence and Clint Howard. The review site placed Sand Castles on its "Top Ten Movie Picks for 2014". Film Pulse gave an overall good review of the film saying "the film has been well-received at numerous festivals including the winning of several awards, and I admit that I can understand why." The Reading Eagle gave a mixed review for Sand Castles, criticizing it for its "gratuitous, insufficiently established romance" while also writing that the film "deserves credit for sustaining its empathy for ordinary people blindsided by fate" and praising the performances of Saxon Trainor and Clint Howard. Critic Herbert Paine of BroadwayWorld.com gave a completely positive review for Sand Castles, labeling it a "haunting and powerful film", while calling the performance of Anne Winters "stunning".
