Plot
Two high school seniors, Logan (Devon Werkheiser) and Blake (Sean Marquette) travel to Puerto Vallarta in Mexico, where they hope to get together with their school crushes.

Cast
Reception
The film received mostly negative reviews from the few critics who saw the film. It currently has a 9% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[3] Brian Orndorf from Blu-ray.com wrote a negative review, claiming: "Lebrija wants to make a heartfelt statement on love and passion, but he's picked the wrong subgenre to express his sincerity, leaving "Sundown" uneven and eventually out of gas."[4] Aaron Peterson from The Hollywood Outsider gave the film a positive review, stating: "[Sundown] is a playful film with a strong cast and a bombastic soundtrack. It might not be the best Spring Break comedy ever, but this is a party you don't want to miss."[5]
