- 80EmpireNikki BaughanEmpireNikki BaughanCo-written and directed with sensitivity and visual flair by Anne Zohra Berrached, Copilot puts an intimate spin on the devastating events of 9/11.
- 60The Irish TimesTara BradyThe Irish TimesTara BradyTechnically impressive and anchored by two terrific turns, Copilot walks a fine line as it attempts to delve into the humanity under extremism.
- 60The Observer (UK)Simran HansThe Observer (UK)Simran HansThe director treats the film as an empathy exercise, hoping to complicate and humanise a terrorist. Yet this is undermined by the obvious red flags that she plants in each section. Saeed’s flight path becomes a foregone conclusion.
- 40The GuardianPeter BradshawThe GuardianPeter BradshawAnne Zohra Berrached’s film is ambitious and interestingly intended, but naive and flawed, with a fundamental problem, which is right up there in the title.
