Outlander (2008)
Why, oh why?!
There's really not much to be said here... The script was appalling and didn't give anything to Jim Caviezel or John Hurt. Their acting look bad anyway. The amount of cheese and clichés that arose during the film made me want to be sick as well... Terrible special effects and I can't stress more at the sheer waste of talent!! Why agree to the script?!?! The closest comparison I can think of to this movie is Attack of the Sabretooth which is probably the worst movie ever made. Watch that first and you'll laugh harder at this. The goofs were also very obvious. Seeing as the protagonist can read English in the beginning of the film yet he speaks 'alienese'... strange.
OK, there was some amusement that came from the movie. Although it felt like 100 minutes of slow torture, the sheer hilarity of the movie TRYING it's hardest to be profound will make you giggle. If you can see how bad this really is.

Disappointing
Before I went to see this movie I had heard so much good about it. 'Brilliant action sequences, good story and funny.' I thought this would be one of the best movies I would ever see, it had everything! The movie didn't follow up at all, it was so disappointing I almost left the cinema. The only thing that stopped me was the final fight scene towards the end of the film.
My reasons for saying this is that the story was lame and silly, the actors didn't sell their roll to me and it was NOT funny at all. It felt weak and just like another 'cutsie' routine actioner. I feel that this movie is made for children and didn't deserve the 'M' rating it got in Australia.
If you want a family movie that could possibly keep you interested, this is it. But otherwise it's not worth it.
