American Outlaws Reviews
Aspires to be a Young Guns for the Eminem generation. They deserve better.
I suppose the way to watch this film, if you feel compelled to watch it by some masochistic tendency you are powerless to control, is to regard it as a comedy.

A film that can best be described as the "dumb version" of Young Guns 2, American Outlaws ranks among the year's most entertainingly insipid movies.

St. Paul Pioneer Press
[Mayfield's] incompetent direction leaves the actors floundering, trying to find the point of these aimless, wayward scenes.
Movie Reviews in Croatian
It fails because of a weak screenplay by Roderick Taylor and John Rogers and laden, lazy direction by Les Mayfield.
So brainless it's a wonder it can find its own ending.

From A to Z, this is a poor man's imitation of that legendary classic, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Narrative techniques are so fundamentally flawed, choppy and uncreative that Outlaws plays like a ESPN highlights reel and not like a movie at all.

If you're not deliberately aiming for cheesy beefcake, and it happens anyway, then you're in trouble.

It makes a viewer feel like an investor in one of the banks Jesse James hit.

It's the Wild West re-visited as a galloping, formulaic date movie.

Never mind that it's already been done before and better; it's never been done this pretty.

Confusing a serving of beefcake for real chow, American Outlaws sadly symbolizes the decline of the Western.
It's history be damned in this cartoonish version.
