      Aparita Bhandari Globe and Mail Perhaps it’s a case of living with a project for too long. Or maybe it’s a case of a story that doesn’t quite morph so easily from one medium to another. Mar 22, 2024 Full Review Proma Khosla indieWire It’s Mirza’s personal connection to the story that makes it charming, moving, and magnetic in its best moments. To that end, the film accurately reflects the tumult of mothers and daughters and intergenerational culture gaps. Rated: B- Mar 13, 2024 Full Review Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle After 96 minutes spent with this family, in all their iterations, the heart wants nothing but the best for them all. Mar 11, 2024 Full Review Cameron Meier MeierMovies.com With all that thematic, temporal, geographic and linguistic hopping, one would expect "Queen" to fly, but instead it drags, held back by average performances and tonally and stylistically challenged direction. Rated: 1.75/5 Apr 10, 2024 Full Review Pat Mullen That Shelf It’s refreshing to see such a joyous film move the needle forward. Mar 24, 2024 Full Review Eric Marchen Rogers TV It's Kaur, though, whose praises should be sung, finding a fine line between two uniquely realized people and seeing that correlation shared outside of the familial connections.
