"The Outsider" is an absolutely underrated action film. The story is good, the characters are well-developed and the conclusion is highly entertaining. Fortunately I have not seen the IMDb User Rating before watching this movie; otherwise I would might have been misguided. Fans of action films will certainly enjoy "The Outsider". My vote is seven.

Title (Brazi): Perseguição Implacável" ("Relentless Pursue")

This movie is a lot of fun, i mean i watched whole movie and i thought what if i had a remote in my hand and i would forward some scenes from it. I also think that this type of movie i have seen back in 2001-2006 year and i felt like that story writer doesn't have the knowledge to make a proper movie.This type of movies, story writer used to make back 5-10 years ago. Nothing new in this. It is like i wasted my time watching this movie. It is like no new ideas to make a movie. And 1 more thing is funny, over-acting that i grab in some scenes. Also, funny story again. And millionaire have a enough security guards to check any person whom comes in to its party when he has many person with guns and bouncers. And without checking they came in and that is the funniest thing i came to know. Guards inside the party available but not the outside to check for security well that funny. Well i have seen movies like Italian job and others. I salute this story writers and directors by not making mistakes like this big things. But this guy whomever the story writer must need to know one thing that when you write story then you or anybody, even the director must know and make a natural movie that may audiences attract. Make a proper movie and i am sure you will earn stars. For rightnow i have nothing but to give you proper 2/10 star.

Sorry..

The outline plot of this movie, and the fact that it had Craig Fairbrass in a starring role made me think this had the ingredients of a fun, action movie so I looked forward to this with much anticipation of a well spent hour and a half. I am not one for being too petty and analysing a movie and I'm sure many movie fans will spot something such as poor acting before I would.

However, there was so many elements of this film. That were below par, I just felt they had to be mentioned.

I was disappointed in the performance of the lead male, Craig Fairbrass.

He did not seem convincing, and his lines simply just did not seem natural.

In addition to this, the editing and sound were very poor along with the picture quality.

I gave this 4 out of 10 and I was possibly being a little generous.

This could have been a really good film but we struggled to hear the whole film. The English accent of the main character was not brilliant and the West Coast US accent of many of the actors meant it really difficult to hear individual words. We went through all the changes of sound on our system - even turned off the surround sound in case this made a difference, but each the voices were mumbled and muffled. it was a case of guess the words the whole way through. Have to say though, that I have to nominate Craig Fairbrass for a better Jack Reacher than Tom Cruise. I hope Lee Childs etc decide to change the actor for the next film

You know the story/drill here, it'll be hardly surprising how this will develop. Recently there was another movie called "Prince" which had Bruce Willis in it (well sort of), but the real funny thing is that Jason Patric was in that movie too. He had a different role than that he has in this one, but just the fact that he'd be in such similar movies alone is kind of crazy.

The action scenes are decent, though nothing to get too excited about. James Caan is great as always, even if his role is pretty paper thin, he makes the most of it. It's very simple as stated before and acting from other is not really something to look forward to exactly. Without Caan I'd given this max a 4/10
