Brian Merchant of Motherboard wrote that "Science fiction is supposed to be all about exploring the unexplored, not rehashing the well-trod … one of the most unabashedly creative enterprises of the 20th century has been rendered another largely enjoyable, but mostly forgettable Hollywood reboot."
Brian Merchant fra Motherboard skrev, at "Science fiction forventes at være om at udforske det ukendte, ikke et opkog af det velkendte (...) en af det 20. århundredes mest skamløst kreative foretagender er gjort til endnu en for det meste underholdende men hovedsageligt forglemmeligt Hollywood-reboot."
