Blunt and simplistic, there's not a moment in this thriller that feels inspired by anything other than criminal TV shows.

This isn't Taken, unless that's how you feel after forking over $10 bucks to see this thing.

Given a lot of style, this could have been another "The Limey"; given even a bit more humor and flashier action sequences, it might have passed for another Statham picture.

A thoroughly generic action picture...The Outsider never rises above the clichés of an overpopulated genre.

The Outsider doesn't break the action movie mold in any way but it is an efficient little, low-budget crime thriller that has the good sense to not overstay its welcome.

Just know, then, that when the big caper finally arrives, you will neither grasp nor care about what's going on.

Sadly, [a certain] baseline competence elevates The Outsider, just barely, into the realm of perfect forgetability.
