What to Know

Critics Consensus

"Je Suis Prest" takes a bleak look at the preparation for war -- a look that may be too far outside the show's usual storytelling scope for some devoted viewers.

I was looking forward to exciting, plot-propelling action on Outlander. But "Je Suis Prest" amounted to little more than a 60-minute training montage -- without the benefits of a Survivor soundtrack or meat punching bags. Go to Full Review

It's really Caitriona Balfe giving the most powerful performance of the episode... pulling the focus away from war and politics and grounding the story in something more human, more personal, more Outlander. Go to Full Review

Even when an insurgency thinks it's ready, it probably isn't; it's merely raring to go. That is certainly the case in this pretty grim episode - titled, dryly, "Je Suis Prest." Go to Full Review

For once, the show seems to have slowed down; it feels less like an overstuffed adaptation and more like an episode of television. Go to Full Review

It is fitting that Outlander's ninth episode of the season, Je Suis Prest, debuted the Saturday after Memorial Day. Go to Full Review

This episode showcases the landscape of Scotland better than any previous episode, clearly in an attempt to display what the men are fighting for. Go to Full Review
