Top critics, in their words
Rotten
While a fictionalized account of Lee's career certainly held some sex, drugs & rock 'n' roll potential, the blandly pedestrian film "Spaceman" seldom delivers despite an engagingly game lead performance by Josh Duhamel.

Rotten
Overall the results are amiable, if also slack and talky.

Rotten
Whiffs on the sports, the action, the story, the dialogue, the acting, the cinematography, the production design, the costuming, the humor ... and somehow turns a potentially compelling character study into one big yawning seventh-inning stretch.
April Wolfe, Village Voice
