Slant Magazine
It careens from one tonal extreme to the next, uncertain about whether it wants to be a gritty drama, camp artifact, or violent prison-sploitation flick. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Full of overwrought campery and vicious drag queens, K-11 feels in places like a deranged John Waters remake of "The Shawshank Redemption." - 30
Village Voice
More like an on-the-nose parody of Lee Daniels directing an episode of Oz, K-11 is a pulpy, tone-deaf mess of confused directorial intent—exploitation laughs one minute, somber tragedy the next. - 30
The New York Times
To borrow RuPaul’s delightful catchphrase, the only possible response to a project like this is to advise it to “sashay away.” - 20
New York Daily News
Points for niche audaciousness, but that’s all. - 20
Los Angeles Times
K-11 has the makings of a cult movie campfest but little of the authentic wit, edge or outré vision it would take to get there. What's left is a dreary jailhouse drama that somehow managed to imprison a few notable actors within its lurid walls.
