The Outpost
audience Reviews
, 81% Audience Score- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars82%. True story about a basically indefensible base camp at the base of a mountain in Afghanistan, protecting from the taliban trying to enter from Pakistan. Documents four or so head officers that head things for portions of the film. Pretty intense throughout with the Taliban constantly coming down the mountain and ends with a long battle. Cool to see the comraderie amongst the guys but not much real character development. Don’t get to know anyone too well. Good movie but not great. 3/5 on rewatch
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsThis is a really good film. The performances are good, the actors resemble the real soldiers they portray and honor them well. The battle is brutal and intense. Worth a watch if you're into war films
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsVery intense movie, I very much appreciated several of the actual soldiers playing themselves, I'm sure it wasn't easy.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsVery solid war flick. Orlando Bloom gives a great performance.
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsA solid war film depicting true events from the war in Afghanistan. War is hell and this movie puts you directly in the line of fire to experience its horrors. Great acting, tense, violent situations and a sobering reminder of the cost of war. No doubt U.S. historians will be discussing and debating the merits of this particular use of our troops for decades to come.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsReally good movie especially if you like Clint Eastwood and watching his son who looks an ax just like him!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsCrazy good flick! Very well written and acted. Plot was engaging and really set up of the climax conflict realistically. Considering it's based on a true story that's no surprise. Intensity kept on all the way to the end.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 starsNot bad. Great if you like a war scene for 2 hours. I lost count of how many times the F word was used...lol.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsNon-stop action. Lots of insights into personalities. I found the infighting one of the most interesting things about it. We see egos fighting egos all on the same side. This is what got the Germans losing WWII. How to keep control when all around you others are losing theirs and are desperately looking for leadership.
- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsThe Outpost offers a great perspective as to life in Afghanistan as a soldier. The uniforms and equipment look good. However, Scott Eastwood continues to attempt to act and sound like Dad to his fail. Additionally, this story deserves a much better tactical and situational accurate depiction.
