While the film has received praise abroad, critiques in Mexico focus on its portrayal of sensitive issues and the lack of authentic Mexican representation in its production.

Karla Sofia Gascon defended the film's message against backlash, highlighting the importance of support for Mexican films and creators rather than online attacks.
