Critic Reviews

  • Chuck O'Leary, Fantastica Daily

    A crushing bore. Even Connery can't save this one.

  • Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews

    Incoherent look at life for the upper-crusts during the turbulent last days of the corrupt Batista regime.

  • Steve Crum, Kansas City Kansan

    So-so Connery vehicle

  • Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice

    Cuba showcases Richard Lester's knack for making movies with ragtag plots and colorful characters.

  • Derek Smith, Apollo Guide

    'A vivid and dazzling depiction of the Cuban landscape and culture but also a weak plot that barely supports the intricate, detailed visuals.'
