CRITIC	RATING	QUOTE
E! Natasha Vargas-Cooper	9	A superbly crafted, bargain-budget documentary that profiles a fascinating underdog...
filmcritic.com Chris Barsanti	6	...a cool and streamlined documentary...
New York Post Lou Lumenick	5	Though this is the rare documentary that admirably admits recording "reality" on film actually shapes how people behave under the camera's gaze, I think Eleven Minutes is going to appeal mostly to hard-core fashionistas.
Slant Magazine Paul Schrodt	5	...for Project Runway obsessives only.
New York Times Stephen Holden	5	...might be described as a low-rent answer to Douglas Keeve’s documentary about Isaac Mizrahi, Unzipped (1995)...
Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas	8	...lively and suspenseful...
Village Voice Aaron Hillis	7	...a charming and unexpectedly perceptive portrait-cum-procedural...
Onion AV Club Scott Tobias	6	[Directors] Selditch and Tate try to manufacture some drama in his dealings with publicists, but Eleven Minutes is better when the cameras stay on McCarroll and allow him to voice his extreme ambivalence about being a reality-TV creation, and about the industry and his place within it.
