The Outpost

It's a true-life story, masterfully directed by Rod Lurie who instinctively captures the danger, risks and moments of desperation and humanity of the event.

Each death mattered. Each sacrifice resonated. Each act of heroism in the face of overwhelmingly lethal odds stopped my heart and forced me to pay rapt attention.

A solidly made and well-acted film.

Whenever [Caleb Landry Jones] showed up on screen, this movie kicked up from OK to awesome.

The most haunting issues the film raises... remain long after the smoke and dust have cleared.

For those who appreciate the genre, this is a better-than-average merging of technical craftsmanship, narrative coherence, and competent acting.

It is, at best, a somewhat average war film. [Full review in Spanish]

The Outpost will shake your core and rattle your bones.

While the first half of “The Outpost” is a borderline disservice, the second half is a fitting tribute to the soldiers who fought the Battle of Kamdesh.

Action scenes felt random and deaths felt emotionless. Caleb Landry Jones is probably the only good thing about this film. [Full review in Spanish]
