The Hollywood ReporterKirk Honeycutt
The film, narrated ably by Leonardo DiCaprio, who seems to share the audience's amazement at what is appearing onscreen, is over too quickly in a mere 43 minutes. So line up and see it again. Read full review

Computer travel may not be the real thing, but IMAX makes this an astonishing trip all the same. Read full review

Austin ChronicleMarc Savlov
It's an out-of-this-world, real-life adventure for kids of all ages, budding Neil Armstrongs and Ray Bradburys alike. Read full review

New York PostLou Lumenick
Astonishingly sharp and stunningly beautiful images of galaxies as far as 100 billion light-years away. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesGlenn Whipp
It's a movie that not only puts you in space but lets you travel through it with a speed and wonder that would make James T. Kirk go a little weak in the knees. Read full review

The New York TimesNeil Genzlinger
Dazzling to look at of course. But such ponderous, cliché-heavy narration. Read full review

Boston GlobeMark Feeney
Is it being a spoilsport to suggest that the Hubble’s original 2-D images are a lot more stupendous than all the IMAX 3-D hurly-burly? Read full review

Washington PostJoel Achenbach
The daring mission by astronauts to repair and upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope in May 2009 is the perfect subject for a brilliant, thrilling 3-D Imax movie. Such a movie, alas, has yet to be made. Read full review

Time OutNicolas Rapold
The 20-year-old Hubble Space Telescope--whose repair mission is the subject of this chronicle--turns out to be a bit of a stage hog, and audiences expecting a blissout of swirling galaxies will wonder why so much time is spent on astronauts sweating over screws and bolts. Read full review

L.A. WeeklyAaron Hillis
Even at 43 minutes short, with earnest but marketable narration by Leonardo DiCaprio and one amusing zero-gravity taco-preparation scene, Hubble 3-D's perilous endeavors are about as thrilling to watch as plumbers snaking a drain ... in space suits! If you want an eye-popping cosmic epic, rent "Star Trek." If you want interactivity, take the kids to the planetarium. Read full review
