New York Post
The cheesy techno-thriller The Outsider is a blaring B-movie that doesn’t have much going for it, but it does have an engaging action hero in its leading man, a snarling Cockney badass named Craig Fairbrass. - 33
The Playlist
The film’s dismal action staging and over-complex story can’t seem to overcome Mr. Fairbrass’s lo-fi presence. - 30
The Dissolve
Baseline competence elevates The Outsider, just barely, into the realm of perfect forgetability. - 30
Los Angeles Times
Fairbrass has a certain rugged sincerity and appealing sense of barely coiled rage, but it's mostly wasted in a screenplay (by director Brian A. Miller) of gaping plot holes, wan excitement and dumb action cliches. - 30
The New York Times
After a somewhat tense opening chase involving a lot of girders, much of the film is rather shakily assembled. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
It’s especially sad to see such notable actors as Caan and Patric reduced to appearing in this sort of bottom of the barrel, direct-to-video fare. - 25
Observer
Lamely directed by Brian A. Miller, who co-wrote it with Mr. Fairbrass, this is the kind of curiosity that used to fill the bottom half of a double feature in the day when we still had drive-ins. The real outsider is the movie itself. - 25
Philadelphia Inquirer
When the big caper finally arrives, you will neither grasp nor care about what's going on.
