3.5/5
"...when it plays to our sense of selective memory and fills in the blanks on issues long forgotten, Sputnik Mania is masterful."  PopMatters  Bill Gibron

4/5
"reminds us that there was a time in the past when world leaders had morality and values"  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

"Refreshingly, 'Sputnik Mania' stands back and allows its tale to be told in memorable actuality footage backed with unobtrusive period music."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Donald J. Levit

2/4
"So obsessed with delivering a story about "mania" through overcooked narrative and aesthetic means that one ultimately feels as manipulated as enlightened."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

7/10
"The reigning champion in the archival footage department features great Soviet footage of those days that (hopefully) will never be seen again---the days of the US-Soviet space race."  Monsters and Critics  Ron Wilkinson
