The Challenger Disaster Ratings & Reviews
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
That it succeeds as well as it does can be credited largely to William Hurt, who manages to make the physicist Richard P. Feynman interesting all over again.
The Hollywood Reporter
Tim Goodman
Credit the Science Channel with figuring out that this story had the kind of smarts and scientific elements at its core to be a great fit and perfect fodder for its foray into scripted material.
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
The film is an appropriately somber and smoothly told account of the Washington politics and cross-agency obfuscation that nearly derailed the commission's investigation into the disaster.
Variety
Brian Lowry
Ultimately, at a time when the cinematic designation "true story" frequently requires a litany of mealy-mouthed disclaimers, that level of fidelity alone would make Challenger Disaster a trip worth taking.
New York Post
Michael Starr
It's both a learning experience and an emotional reminder of what can go wrong in that gray area separating man and machine.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
It's not just a good story, it's a good story well told.
Newsday
Verne Gay
Hurt is genetically incapable of turning in a substandard performance -- whether in Damages, or name-your-favorite-Hurt-flick, or even in this quiet, intelligent film.
Cleveland Plain Dealer
Mark Dawidziak
You don't need to in any way qualify the positive assessment of this film. It's impressive work by any standards.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
Where a more traditional approach could've easily been bogged down by sentiment, The Challenger Disaster's levelheaded tack allows for a specific understanding of the decisions and shortsightedness that caused the catastrophe.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Austin O'Connor
The solemn inquiry into the cause of a tragic accident is turned into a nifty, shifty whodunit. Or, more precisely, a whatdunit.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
The film is both dramatically viable and instructive. Yes, we learn about science, but perhaps more important, we also learn about standing your ground no matter what challenges you face.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Rob Owen
The Challenge Disaster suffers somewhat from its attempts to create added dramatic intrigue... The film never offers proof either way, and it's an unnecessary embellishment that too strictly conforms to conspiracy archetypes.
