    Recommandations

      Boston Globe

      The director gives us a small, sincere and nearly perfectly realized film about adolescence in Oklahoma, aptly entitled The Outsiders. [24 Mar 1983]

      Rolling Stone

      Francis Coppola's revision of his 1983 film of S.E. Hinton's best seller The Outsiders is funny, touching and revelatory, with twenty-two minutes of added footage and a new soundtrack featuring Elvis Presley. [Review of re-release]

      TV Guide Magazine

      The charismatic Dillon is a believable delinquent and gets solid support from a cast that went on to populate some of the better youth pictures in years to come. [Review of re-release]

      Chicago Sun-Times

      Coppola's teenagers seem trapped inside too many layers of storytelling.

      Variety

      Francis Coppola has made a well acted and crafted but highly conventional film out of S.E. Hinton's popular youth novel, The Outsiders.

      Christian Science Monitor

      As a movie, it's mediocre.

      The Globe and Mail (Toronto)

      This is an honestly moving, ungainly film. [25 Mar 1983]

      Time

      Alas, The Outsiders is not quite a good one. Because it falls in with the undulating rhythm of the life of its heroes, for whom a fatal fight and a quiet night have almost equal importance, the picture never manages to reach the peaks of satisfying Hollywood melodrama.
