Critic Reviews

Diaz has said that she hopes the film asks the right questions. But it seems, in this case, that the questions are leading - and rightly so. Marcos is given all the tape she needs to hang herself.Full Review

Imelda is at its most acridly useful when comparing the former first lady's recollections with others' less sanguine memories.Full Review

Ty Burr
Boston Globe

Fascinating and impressively balanced documentary.Full Review

Ruthe Stein
San Francisco Chronicle

Captures a complex and contradictory world figure. Imelda is by turns humorous, insightful and infuriating.Full Review

The Hollywood Reporter

For the fascinating character study Imelda, Ramona S. Diaz was given a month's access to the former first lady, who supplies so many bizarre equivocations that it's hard to tell whether her actions were malicious or merely delusional.Full Review
