But there is an unavoidable warmth and tenderness to the documentary that I happily responded to. Rex is a dynamic performer, and it’s easy to see (especially as someone who rather despises Drag Race) why he became a popular fan-favorite

“Lady Like” and Lady Camden and Rex serve as testaments to the belief that with a lot of talent, hard work and dedication someone can defy the odds and achieve the extraordinary.

Unfortunately, it's all so formulaic and surface-level that we still don't understand who Lady Camden truly is.

Lady Like arguably offers the best Drag Race competitor portrait so far. It’s a polished and personable look at a queen who proved the slow burn of her season.

3/5

The editing is at odds with the narrative's momentum, circling around and repeating emotional points. So it's entertaining, but never as moving as it wants to be.

Loooooved it. Discovered it totally by accident. It was everything I wanted to know about Lady Camden but didn't knowI wanted to know. Now I just can't wait to see her live. If you love the Ru Girls, then you'll love this.

Lady Like was incredible! I saw it at a premiere in San Francisco. We got to see Rex's story growing up in Camden, coming to America, and becoming the Lady we all know and love!! The documentary was heartfelt, powerful, and full of laughs! I would definitely recommend it to everyone wanting to learn more about drag, family, and persistence.

I loved Lady Like! Lady Camden is one of my all time favorite queens, and I watched it the day it came out. I was so touched by how open she was with her story, and there was never a boring moment. 10/10 it was fantastic!

One of the best documentaries I've seen. Such a beautiful and moving film, I've been a fan of Lady Camden for a while and having this personal insight and seeing all the talent/effort put into her drag was amazing, made me even moree of a fan (was featured in the credits too 😛). Definitely a must-watch!!
