| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonKudos are in order for the entire cast, which recites the corny dialogue, and never once turns a glowing red. |
| Montreal Film JournalKevin N. LaforestThis is honestly better than all the big Hollywood blockbusters that have been released so far this summer. |
| AMCtv.comEugene NovikovFor a movie about aliens and Vikings, Outlander turns out to be awfully rough going. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekSurely they mean Outlandish...ready-made for a late-night slot on the Sci-Fi channel. |
| eFilmCritic.comPeter SobczynskiIts blend of crappy special effects, cheesy acting and straight-faced silliness is enough to provide viewers with a taste for camp trash with a couple of hours of cheerfully ridiculous mind-rot. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterBeowulf meets Aliens in a rip-roaring mixture of B-movie clichés, wooden acting, dumb dialogue and bloodthirsty action scenes. Indulgent fantasy fans of all ages should find it a guilty pleasure. |
| SFX MagazineRichard EdwardsAbout as subtle as being punched in the face by an angry Norwegian, it delivers everything you could possibly want from a movie about Vikings and alien monsters. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfOutlander is a fluid genre exercise that satisfies cravings for action and Norse mythology in one fell swoop. It's a full-bodied adventure movie that's responsive and reverential to the needs of sci-fi escapism. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongOutlander is a cheesy, low-budget, space alien Viking monster movie. And seemingly proud of it. |
| Little White LiesEd AndrewsAs the ginger offspring of a Ridley Scott/Peter Jackson gangbang, Outlander is a wannabe B movie classic that's so shit, it's just... shit! |
