Reception

Robert Koehler of Variety wrote that the film is too incompetent to be funny.[4] Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times described it as "a dreary, dirty-talking sex comedy from the you've-got-to-be-kidding-me school of filmmaking".[5] Michael Nordine of LA Weekly wrote, "Though Nipples and Palm Trees isn't without its eventual charms, the film is too content, for too long, to dwell on unfunny sleaze and thinly-sketched characters."[6] HorrorCultFilms rated it 8/10 stars and called it "quite possibly the biggest surprise of the year".[7]
