Dana Stevens, a Slate critic, said that "Her performance in a film that , despite its best intentions seems completely fake as well as embarrassing and like an extended PSA about inappropriate touching is the most truthful thing." Bob Strauss writes for many Los Angeles newspapers and states that Bishil "...is one of the most natural film actresses ever. Gary Goldstein, in a September 12 Los Angeles Times, review of Towelhead said that Summer Bishil ("...newcomer) provides a compelling and captivating performance as Jasira. "In 2009, she filmed Wayne Kramer's project, Crossing Over, starring Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta and Ashley Judd, a portrayal that received some favorable notice from the Associated Press's Jay Reiner. The film was a success and she was cast as Azula in M. Night Shyamalan’s 2010 film The Last Airbender. This was to be the main theme of the planned yet unproduced sequel.
