      The Hollywood Reporter

      It's entertaining nonsense with major league special effects, larger-than-life characters and inventive monsters that draw on the "Aliens" and "Predator" models, being terrifying but also vaguely sympathetic.

      Surprise number one: It's smarter than it looks. Surprise number two: That doesn't entirely ruin it as an action film.

      An enjoyably goofy hybrid of extraterrestrial sci-fi and Iron Age action, Outlander boasts a super-serious Jim Caviezel in the title role

      Not helped by a wooden perf from Jim Caviezel as a humanoid alien who accidentally imports a real alien to eighth-century Earth.

      Outlander is interesting as a collision of genres: the monster movie meets the Viking saga. You have to give it credit for carrying that premise to its ultimate (if not logical) conclusion.

      The nuttiest hunk of junk in many months.

      Boston Globe

      By taking nonsense seriously Outlander never achieves camp. It's a comic book that's mistaken itself for scripture.

      If only Outlander was as fun as the premise makes it sound on paper.
