Though predictable, isn't half bad.

Really lost in space.

It just goes to prove that in space, no one can hear you scream when the studio massacres your movie.

This was a mission that should have been aborted long ago.

USA Today
Good actors seem plastic and plastic actors seem worse in a knockoff of every rocket-ship movie you've ever seen.

Austin Chronicle
Fails chiefly because it's senseless. How it even managed to bypass the straight-to-video route boggles the mind and is a speculative fiction far more engaging than any to be found onscreen.

Just doesn't live up to its title.

TV Guide
This big budget mish-mash is almost unbelievably derivative and shockingly cheap looking.

Looks and moves like a film whose vital organs were yanked before shooting commenced.

Village Voice
Apparently fallen victim to the transparent damage-control tactics of studios in possession of perceived stinkers.

The New York Times
Light on originality and low on suspense though high on design and special effects.

Appears headed for a deep-space rendezvous with audience indifference.

Chicago Reader
This mildly moody SF thriller belabors standard dramatic conceits involving jealousy and sexual betrayal.

The flick's ultimate flaw? For a movie about space travel, it's an awfully uninspired trek.

This poor movie is like an abandoned car without plates: Nobody wants to admit it's theirs.

Given the tainted history of Supernova, it's difficult to figure out where to place blame for either the undernourished screenplay or the moribund action.

Supernova isn't so super.
