| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 13, 2024

Due to the inability to dig deeper here, it resembles a commercial that never ends ... The Blue Angels is great for footage of these masters of aerial maneuvering doing their thing and not much else.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jul 9, 2024

Simply put, go for the breathtaking, spectacular, and adrenaline-pumping visuals and stay for the lessons The Blue Angels teaches cinephiles of all ages.

It's almost as much fun as watching the Blue Angels perform.

| Original Score: 3 1/2 stars | Jun 14, 2024

The moments of cinematography and [their choreography] are thrilling and exciting. When the documentary lands and tries to do their day-to-day, it loses me.

| Jun 8, 2024

Is it transparent military propaganda, and a recruitment tool? Yes, it is. Is it also very exciting and great-looking? Also yes.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 7, 2024

Watching The Blue Angels in your living room, you can’t help but be envious of those making the effort to catch the documentary in IMAX.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 31, 2024

It's not quite like being at a live performance of this elite flying team, but this film -- especially the limited IMAX release -- is sure to thrill fans with its cockpit views of in-air maneuvers.

100 percent, a cinematic thrill ride.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 28, 2024

A visually stunning documentary that places viewers in the cockpit with the pilots. While the aerial artistry is the selling point, the human story about what it takes to be the best of the best is equally compelling.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 28, 2024

[capsule review] Absolutely astounding feat, superhuman precision and sky-soaring choreography. Get the feeling of being inside the world-spinning cockpit, and learn more about the outstanding people and preparations that pull off the aerial miracles!

The members of the Blue Angels are put through some of the most rigorous flight training imaginable, all of which is shown in this impressive, if fairly standard-issue, film.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 24, 2024

This is one film that demands to be seen on the 'big screen' in an IMAX theater.

| Original Score: B- | May 24, 2024

The aerial cinematography is impressive, but the movie is a bit humdrum when on the ground. Overall, it’s a respectful, eye-catching salute to those daring pilots.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 24, 2024

The Blue Angels doesn’t dig deep, but there’s no arguing against the exhilaration of watching up close and (sort of) personal as these pilots do amazing things.

| May 23, 2024

With this level access, the sights and sounds of The Blue Angels are noteworthy. The rest of it is half-hearted filler.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 23, 2024

The film crew not only got up close with the Blue Angels and the planes but also recorded in high-definition resolution that will blow your mind.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | May 23, 2024

The Blue Angels could have been much deeper and more introspective than it actually is, and it can sometimes just feel like a demonstration of how great IMAX cameras are and just how impressive this flight squadron is.

| Original Score: 7/10 | May 22, 2024

“Top Gun: Maverick” proved if you make a great movie supporting traditional American values and common-sense morality, people will come out in droves and “the Blue Angels” is poised to continue that success.

| Original Score: 5/5 | May 19, 2024

The Blue Angels is a film that needs to be seen on the biggest screen possible.
