Reception edit
Critical reception edit
In a review of the newspaper El Comercio, critic Sebastián Pimentel: gave the film a very low rating and described that "the psychological content is reduced to a matter of actions obvious, set phrases or grimaces of café-theater. The possibility of a popular, intelligent and imaginative Peruvian cinema is once again far from the big screen".[5]
Box-office edit
In its billboard debut, Eleven Males achieved 45,000 viewers; becoming the most watched Peruvian film of 2017, surpassing "Cebiche de Tiburón", "Av. Larco" and "Gemelos sin cura".[6]
Sequels edit
With the success of Once machos, a sequel entitled Eleven Males 2 was announced, this time without the participation of Daniel Peredo, who had died in early 2018.[7] After the success of the sequel, the realization of a third part was confirmed,[8] along with a new series titled Once machos, la serie (Eleven males, the series) to premiere in 2020.[9] but they were never released, and it is unknown what happened to these projects.
