Los Angeles Times
Unlike pornography, it takes place in a recognizably real world. It is a much better film than "9 1/2 Weeks," which King wrote and produced. [2 May 1988, p.5]

Chicago Sun-Times
The story is such a compilation of cliches that I hesitate to describe it, for fear of being taken for a satirist.

Empire
All pout and pose, with no spine to speak of; a beast with no back.

Time Out
Sex sequences are disappointingly non-specific: blurred nipples and vaguely flickering tongues, set to That Disco Beat and invariably followed by post-coital blubbing.

Variety
Two Moon Junction is a bad hick version of Last Tango in Paris down to the poor imitative scoring by Jonathan Elias. Sexual obsession might be the aim, but the result is anything but hot.

Washington Post
Two Moon Junction is a soft-porn boudoir thriller with the look of a perfume ad and a spaghetti-strap-thin wisp of a plot...As in the antiseptic "9 1/2 Weeks," there's smut, but no sweat. You get the feeling King would make love wearing not only his socks but a pair of surgical gloves.

TV Guide Magazine
When it comes right down to it, TWO MOON JUNCTION could be far, far worse than it is; but given the built-in limitations of this type of film, it can't be any better.

Probably the greatest love story of all time... Once in a while, a movie comes along which is just better than the rest. Two Moon Junction is such a movie. It’s the story of April, a beautiful, rich, privileged southern lady whose life looks perfect. Looks however, can be deceiving. We quickly discover that April is oppressed by her friends and family who expect her to walk, talk and behave like a princess. The story of Two Moon Junction is the story of April’s struggle to break free of her oppression in favour of freedom and love. Released in the 1980s when woman were very much submissive to their male co-stars, Two Moon Junction was ahead of its time. April’s emotional journey sees her fight against the expectations placed on women back then to behave a certain way, a submissive way. It is an amazing journey not to be missed. Sherilyn Fenn’s performance as April is so real and powerful, you will be willing April on to take control of her life, and her family and her lovers. Fenn’s portrayal of April is quite simply the best you will see in a love story, as she makes you feel each and every one of April’s victories and defeats... Just the best movie ever!
