Reception
Quim Casas of El Periódico de Catalunya rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, writing that "the only possible charm and interest of Diana is perhaps its character, natural or intended, intuitive or premeditated, of an amateur film".

Jordi Costa of El País assessed that "[the presence of] energetic displays of style" in the film does not hide the fact that "there is no convincing character portrayal, but only a highly questionable male fantasy".

Sergio F. Pinilla of Cinemanía rated the film 4 out 5 stars, considering that it features "a diabolical plot, profuse in contextual details" and "two memorable characters".
