The film earned acclaim for its personal approach regarding how women directors navigate Hollywood sexism, centering stories from women directors themselves.
Susan Wloszczyna of RogerEbert.com gave the film three out of four stars and wrote, "Documentaries that rely on a steady stream of talking heads—interspersed here with fleeting film clips—usually are not my favorite. However, when those heads belong to talented and perceptive women who rarely get a chance to speak their minds let alone get hired to make a movie, I can definitely make an exception."
