Quicktime
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: C+
"... while "Quinceañera" clearly wants to make bigger statements — about the nature of family, and the culture clash caused by white/gay gentrification in poorer Hispanic neighborhoods — it never quite manages to do so."
Austin American-Statesman: 3 of 5 stars
"... contains its share of melodrama but doesn't wallow in it."
The Palm Beach Post: B+
"... comes dangerously close to soap opera, but is saved by the very human script."
Associated Press: B-
"... a love song to the diversity of America and the importance of maintaining tradition, even if those traditions have to bend a bit to accommodate changing times."
