Critic Reviews

Stephen Holden, New York Times
This captivating romantic fairy tale for grown-ups could be described as a yuppie Bonnie and Clyde in which alienated corporate climbers break the rules.
Matt Singer, Village Voice
Nice low-budget cinematography and authentic New York City locations aside, there's little to engage viewers over the course of 100 wandering minutes.
Jeremiah Kipp, Slant Magazine
Satellite is about the idealism of love and how that is placed within the complex and contradictory real world.
Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central
A fairy tale about love: aren't they all.
