The Amazing Truth About Queen Raquela Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Noel Murray
A kind of postmodern, grown-up fairytale: a Cinderella story for the reality-TV age.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
As fabulous, scraggly, tough-minded, star-eyed and conflicted as the queen it documents.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Raquela Rios is so passionately alive her film gets away with an open ending -- as it has everything else.
Film Journal International
David Noh
That hyperbolic title refers to Raquela's transsexual status, but otherwise, there's nothing all that amazing about this very specialized-interest, sometimes engaging but often frustrating faux-documentary.
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
It's like being trapped in a roomful of teenage girls for 80 minutes.
Boxoffice Magazine

It's funny, wry, edgy and occasionally insightful -- but it's not a documentary.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
