• "Outlander," in its early minutes, does hold out one faint promise of relief. It presents us with a protagonist with a modern consciousness, a man who wants to be there no more than we do."The San Francisco Chronicle: Vikings and Spaceships in Outlander

• "Predator meets Beowulf in Outlander, a wan little B-movie done in by terminal deja vu. There isn't a single scene in this story about a traveler from another planet (Jim Caviezel) who crash-lands on Earth during the Iron Age that doesn't remind you of another, better movie."Miami Herald: Outlandishly Bad Effects... and That's the Good Part!

• "You can think about "Outlander" 16 different ways, and still arrive at the same conclusion: It just doesn't work."The Seattle Times: Fine Cast Fails to Save Outlander
