VARIETY
"Indisputably 'America's Favorite Dragapella Beautyshop Quartet' -- they're the only such group -- campy San Francisco-based Kinsey Sicks hit the screen in I Wanna Be a Republican. Their doo-wop vocal polish impresses, as does the technical slickness of this first feature from gay-market-targeting shingle Eyethink Pictures." - Dennis Harvey

BAY AREA REPORTER
"A night of sizzling satire and sexy trash talk ... a laugh-out-loud funny... showcase to rival the Margaret Cho franchise ... a comedy concert that equals the best of HBO." - David Lamble

“The Kinsey Sicks' performance of I Wanna Be a Republican makes for an entertaining 90 minutes of film... Billed as a fundraiser for the Republican Party, the show's premise... allows for some biting humor at the expense of the current administration.
The show kicks off with ‘our national anthem,’ ‘I Wanna Be a Republican.’ (The good ladies of the GOP also remind you that it's brought to you by ‘the royal family of Saudi Arabia, the dictatorship of Pakistan, and the GOOD Bin Ladens.’)
Other highlights include a take-off on the Priscilla, Queen of the Desert favorite ‘I've Never Been to Me,’ reworked as a safe sex tribute called ‘I've Never Had VD’; the astonishingly talented Trampolina's scorching gospel rendition of ‘God Loves You To Get Laid’; and the tax-freedom anthem ‘We Are Over-Taxed,’ sung to the tune of ‘We Shall Overcome.’ - Christie Keith

METRO SOURCE
"Just when you thought there was nothing new to be done in the realm of drag entertainment, along come the Kinsey Sicks, a "dragapella beautyshop quartet" that has spent the last decade maturing from guys in heels having a laugh to bonafide drag stars with devoted followings across the country. ... indulge in this great recording of a typically raucous live show featuring the Sicks (so named for the exclusively homosexual end of the Alfred Kinsey scale) aiming their choral critiques squarely at the right with lyrics like, "We arm the world. We harm the children." WORD OF MOUTH: Though their outfits and bawdy between-numbers antics already place them pretty high on the entertainment scale for a drag show, their songs - with perfect four-part harmony vocals, well-chosen parody melodies and laugh-out-loud lyrics - approach genius."

GENRE
"REPUBLICAN PARTAY! Dick Cheney must be rolling over in his grave ... oh wait, he's still not dead. Anyway, The Kinsey Sicks, that legendary troupe of drag tricksters out of San Francisco, just might be doing their best to push him in that general direction. In I Wanna Be A Republican, the Sicks skewer everything the Republican Party seems to hold dear. The 4 drag a cappella chanteuses perform spotlessly, while serving dish after dish of humor and political satire. They sing about minorities, homosexuality, immigrants, poverty and anything else they can dissociate from the Republicans. Plenty of parodies on famous songs and a poignant message make this a must-see from beginning to end." - Bryan Pirolli

FRONTIERS
“This is a filmed stage performance, which I know can be a bit iffy, but being the sensible (and camera-aware) drag queens that they are, the Sicks know how to make this work - and work it does! I can't tell you the last time I laughed out loud as much as I did during this film. Of course, this has little to do with the actual drag and much to do with the sheer brilliance of the Sicks' talent and wit.” - Geroge Skinner

FILM QUEEN REVIEWS
“The Kinsey Sicks are a ‘dragapella beautyshop quartet’ with a decidedly political slant to their songs. In 2004, they toured a show called I Wanna Be a Republican, filmed for your entertainment, with brief bits of interview footage sprinkled in. The songs are fabulous, the singers divine, and the subject material exceptionally timely. See The Kinsey Sicks live if you can, but otherwise go see this movie.” - Lincoln Madison

BAY TIMES
"Do not miss this comical political musical extravaganza in four-part harmony! The talented a capella singing and dancing drag actresses invite you to a side-splitting mock Republican fundraiser... it’s not only entertaining—it’s a morale booster...It should be on a required list for the training of those who believe in the freedom to laugh. You will weep (in hysteria.)"
