Daft, obvious but hugely enjoyable, 'Outlander' is superior trash.

Tom Huddlestone, Time Out
Fresh

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

Cary Darling, Dallas Morning News
Rotten

Outlander is a cheesy, low-budget, space alien Viking monster movie. And seemingly proud of it.

Tom Long, Detroit News
Rotten

In its second half, Outlander falls apart completely, becoming nothing but a violent, mindless monster movie along the lines of Alien vs. Predator.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten

In 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.
