The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
Condorman, the new Disney Studios film, has the odd exploding car or boat in it, but it is sheer amiability. [18 Aug 1981] - 60
The New York Times
It is painless and chaste, and it has a lot of beautiful scenery and beautiful clothes. There are worse things to watch while you eat popcorn. - 50
TV Guide Magazine
The film is pleasant but too hackneyed and heavy-handed to work well. - 50
Washington Post
Condorman is ingenious enough when it comes to mechanical resources. Its undoing is personality resources. - 50
Christian Science Monitor
There's nothing wrong with it, exactly. But there's nothing to recommend it, either, except its generally good nature, which gets rathers strained during an overlong climax full of speeding cars and exploding motorboats. [10 Sep 1981, p.19] - 40
Empire
Unoriginal, unfunny superhero spoof with a bewildered cast and an obvious plot. - 30
Time Out
A pathetic shadow of the Frank Tashlin/Jerry Lewis Artists and Models.
