External critics' reviews

Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
This is one of the year's best films. more
Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington
Sumptuously exciting, glowing with expertise, seething with life, gorgeously designed and thrillingly articulated. more
USA Today Mike Clark
Despite the film's sporadic lulls, both director and star are on full beam. The first and third hours of this 20th-century epic are as dazzling as big-scale movies get. more
Baltimore Sun Michael Sragow
If you didn't know that Martin Scorsese made The Aviator, the enthralling new adventure-biography of Howard Hughes, you might think it was the calling card of a neophyte visual genius. more
Variety Todd McCarthy
An enormously entertaining slice of biographical drama, The Aviator flies like one of Howard Hughes' record-setting speed airplanes. more
The New Yorker David Denby
Brilliantly entertaining. more
Portland Oregonian Shawn Levy
The Aviator, though, if not prime Scorsese, is the closest thing in a long time to the old Scorsese. What a splendid year-end gift! more
Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold
It's not his (Scorsese) best film, but it's his most accessible and most thoroughly entertaining. more
Film Threat Chris Barsanti
This is Scorsese’s "Schindler's List", for better and for worse (mostly the better). more
New York Magazine Ken Tucker
The result is an admirably bumpy ride of a biopic, a rare one that leaves you feeling not safe but bracingly unsettled. more
