Critics Consensus: This slice-of-life story of a teenage girl in Echo Park is both a sweet crowd-pleaser and a perceptive look at socioeconomic community issues.

Touching, charming and very engagingly played, it offers perceptive insights into LA Latino culture as well as solid, slightly old-fashioned entertainment.
The storytelling remains less than satisfying, particularly the ending.
The setting and the people in it make Quinceanera a party worth an RSVP.
It feels awkward, both in the pat screenplay and the uneven direction.
You realize that, while pretending to break ground, Quinceañera is ultimately stuck in familiar Hollywood formulas.
[Has]courage to look realistically, instead of idealistically, at some dubious civic practices; and second, honesty about the painful feelings of kids coupled with their desperate need for love and guidance and their ultimate desire to do the right thing.
This celebrated Sundance prizewinner doesn't look quite so special. Actually, it seems Very Special--as in one of those Very Special Episodes of an ongoing television series.
The writing is not always as developed as one would wish it, but this seems almost paltry in light of the dramatic truth and rivetingly real performances which are elicited.
This is a satisfying, spicy little picture.
(the writer-directors) fill their story with well-observed contrasts... Although 'Quinceanera' is full of distinctly Hispanic sounds and flavors, its themes of tolerance and understanding should apply to any culture.
The film is filled with heart and good humor, but there is a bit of edge to it as well.
Lovely and lovable.
I like the plot but it was lacking something.
Super Reviewer
Impressive acting all round, the story?s focus is on being an outsider within a community and is a pretty original idea, however my advice would be not to read the synopsis before watching, as it is a bit of a story spoiler. This is certainly not a movie made for teens, it will be enjoyed by anyone who enjoys realistic Drama.
It was pretty good. I liked the ending.
This movie was a lot more serious than i was expecting. Every minute is entertaining and full of heart. It was refreshing to see a gay latino thug on film handled so well. The ending is a little abrupt, but it makes sense. I love Mexicans!
