	Author	Review
United States	Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"The lack of subtlety in its title tells you what you need to know about 'U.S.S. Indianapolis: Men of Courage'"	NEG
United States	Noel Murray Los Angeles Times	"The tone of the film is awkwardly split between the grit of modern cinema and the boisterous adventure of old Hollywood"	NEU
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"A tale of survival that never provides the audience with a basic entry point into how and why we should care"	NEG
