Critics' reviews

"An enjoyably preposterous thriller"

Rene Rodriguez: Miami Herald
"Since we've lost our innocence, our 'fun' movies have to be smarter than they used to be (...) But 'Capricorn One' is just too dumb to be fun"

Jack Kroll: Newsweek
"Overlong but interesting thriller."

TV Guide
"The premise of Capricorn One is so intrinsically arresting that it almost saves the film from the sheer incompetence of its script."
