The Outsider Ratings & Reviews
Contactmusic.com
Rich Cline
Blunt and simplistic, there's not a moment in this thriller that feels inspired by anything other than criminal TV shows.
TheFilmFile.com
Dustin Putman
Embraces its disposable B-movie leanings, but remains mediocre even under these modest prospects.
PopMatters
Bill Gibron
This isn't Taken, unless that's how you feel after forking over $10 bucks to see this thing.
The Dissolve
Chris Klimek
Sadly, [a certain] baseline competence elevates The Outsider, just barely, into the realm of perfect forgetability.
Film Journal International
Maitland McDonagh
A thoroughly generic action picture...The Outsider never rises above the clichs of an overpopulated genre.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
Just know, then, that when the big caper finally arrives, you will neither grasp nor care about what's going on.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
Any entertainment value comes from peripheral things, like wondering what excuse they'll find to get Shannon Elizabeth into a tight, low-cut dress, or why every single light source in this film, no matter how small, emits a blinding lens flare.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
"The Outsider" is a subpar version of "The Limey" starring a subpar version of Terence Stamp.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A futile attempt to emulate the box office success of Taken.
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
There's not enough here for even an imported action hero to work with.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
The Outsider doesn't break the action movie mold in any way but it is an efficient little, low-budget crime thriller that has the good sense to not overstay its welcome.
Chicago Daily Herald
Dann Gire
The imposing Fairbrass makes for a formidable action hero, but he's no match for the inert direction, boilerplate dialogue and razor-thin characters he trounces with ease.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Miller fights to create panic out of nothing, employing a bland leading man and a repetitive sense of violence to snap this snoozer awake.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Fairbrass moves stiffly through both the drama and fight scenes - as if he were underwater. Supporting parts in Jason Statham movies may be his calling, instead.
Village Voice
Nick Schager
Fairbrass proves a hulking wannabe ass-kicker without much distinctive charisma, and his leaden performance is matched by sleepy, one-note supporting turns by the slumming-it Patric and Caan.
Examiner.com
Travis Hopson
As far as poor man's versions of Steven Soderbergh's The Limey go, one can probably do worse than The Outsider.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
May Fairbrass the actor find a more interesting story than the one by Fairbrass the writer.
Observer
Rex Reed
The Outsider is so far-fetched it redefines the word "preposterous" and is made doubly untidy by the star's clotted accent.
Mark Leeper's Reviews
Mark R. Leeper
as is frequently the case when the same person writes and directs, one talent is stronger than the other.
