- Critics' reviews
-
-
"'Cocoon: The Return' is the best kind of sequel: It doesn't merely cash in on the success of the original but actually continues its story in new directions"
-
"'Cocoon: The Return' is so tired, in fact, that it can barely recapitulate the winning formula of the original hit"
