An unexpectedly enjoyable science-fiction adventure that should be generating louder fanboy buzz than it has so far.

Top CriticOutlander is a cheesy, low-budget, space alien Viking monster movie. And seemingly proud of it.
01/23/09
Top CriticIn its second half, Outlander falls apart completely, becoming nothing but a violent, mindless monster movie along the lines of Alien vs. Predator.
01/23/09
Top CriticIn Outlander, the nuttiest hunk of junk in many months, Viking warriors and a stoic intergalactic traveler join forces to combat an enormous beetle with whiplash stingers.
01/23/09
Top CriticBy taking nonsense seriously Outlander never achieves camp. It's a comic book that's mistaken itself for scripture.
01/22/09
Top CriticAn enjoyably goofy hybrid of extraterrestrial sci-fi and Iron Age action.

Top CriticI am tempted to describe the plot of Outlander as preposterous, but a movie about an alien spaceship crashing into a Viking fjord during the Iron Age is likely to be preposterous.
