Reviews:
“Will you know what’s coming? Probably, but you won’t care; you’ll still want to “see” it all unfold. “The Stay” is a well-written, well-directed, and well-acted independent film that won’t change the world, but will keep you entertained for ninety minutes.” IndyRed
“It’s too bad the script was so weak because the technical elements are solid and the acting is good. The cast makes the best of what they have to work with, and there are several nice shots of what was a beautiful location. But there’s really no saving The Stay from its story. But at least it is better than The Rental.” Voices from the Balcony
