In Ed Potton's review of the film for The Times, he noted its "fatal lack of focus"[1] and a scope that is "ambitiously wide." He rated it 2 out of 5 stars.

Anna Smith for Time Out described the film as "often inspiring... While not exhaustive, this is a thought-provoking watch."[2] She rated it a 4 out of 5 stars.

Wendy Ide for The Guardian rated the film 4 out of 5 stars, stating that it is "informative but sometimes unwieldy"[3] and "attempts to address intersectionality" but that it may have been better as a multi-part television show.
