In 709 AD, in the Iron Age, a spacecraft crashes in the Viking kingdom of Herot, Norway, and the pilot Kainan survives. He turns the beacon on; learns the language and culture of the planet using a machine; and finds that the predator, Moorwen, that he was transporting, had escaped. While chasing the alien monster, he finds a village completely destroyed and is arrested by the warrior Wulfric, believing that he killed the locals - Kainan is brought to Herot as a prisoner.
During the reign of the Vikings, Kainan, a man from a far-off world, crash lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator known as the Moorwen. Though both man and monster are seeking revenge for violence committed against them, Kainan leads the alliance to kill the Moorwen by fusing his advanced technology with the Viking's Iron Age weaponry.
Okay I was bored, I made a on the spot decision, it&#39;s not my fault the ticket machine malfunctioned, my finger slipped, I went in the wrong screen, I know the film magazines said it was schlock I just couldn&#39;t stop myself, I was curious. And guess what, I&#39;m glad. It was actually much more enjoyable than I expected. It is a little over-long but it&#39;s got that sort-of fun b-movie type charm of some of those 80&#39;s fantasy movies, like Dragonslayer, Conan the Barbarion there are some others I should mention but their titles escape me at the moment. I don&#39;t no, something about this film just gives me that sort of eighties vibe even with the fantastic special effects. I like the way the actual creature design works with the darkness to give you a kind of impression of what the creature looks like without fully revealing it until near the end, thats how monster movies used to be done, now everyone just wants to show off the special effect right away to sow how realistic the creature can be, whatever happened to building a little suspense.<br/><br/>Okay so it&#39;s not going to win any awards or anything but if your in the mood for an action romp you could do far worse than catch this fun albeit just a tad over-long (I&#39;d say they could have shaved off about fifteen mins) adventure.
…since I was expecting more. Maybe it is my mistake but I did not expect to see a copy of &quot;The 13th Warrior&quot; (McTiernan-Banderas and co.) And a bad copy I must add. Was expecting more from a crew like that. The story was good but the execution and presentation bad. Very bad. The characters were not worked out fairly. They look some how incomplete. The vikings are so friendly it makes you cry. The logic in their behavior is as well &quot;from a different time and culture&quot;. The casting is as well with flaws. It is very important what are you expecting from the movie but from a hardcore fan of this genre I just could not allow this &quot;quality&quot; to slip trough. The movie is worth watching, someone before me gave the 6 for the effort but again do not expect much.They have tried but could have add more intelligence in to the casting, character or the dialog creation. According to me it is just on the average or maybe a bit below…
Not helped by a wooden perf from Jim Caviezel as a humanoid alien who accidentally imports a real alien to eighth-century Earth.
Outlander was first conceived by director Howard McCain as similar, but not based on, the classic Old English epic poem Beowulf but with Viking overtones. When McCain later joined with Hollywood screenwriter Dirk Blackman to produce the screenplay, Blackman added science fiction elements to the story by changing the main characters into aliens. In an interview with Sci Fi Wire, principal actor <a href="/name/nm0001029/">Jim Caviezel</a> described Outlander as &quot;kind of like <a href="/title/tt0112573/">Braveheart (1995)</a> (1995) and <a href="/title/tt0091203/">Highlander (1986)</a> (1986) combined.&quot; The movie states that the story takes place in 709 A.D. Norway, although it actually was shot around Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and Laborador in Canada. The language he speaks at the start is Old Norse, the precurser from which modern Scandinavian languages such as Danish, Icelandic, Norwegian, and Swedish originated. The actors were coached in Old Norse/Icelandic by an Icelandic professor. Yes. The Department of English at McMaster University, (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) has placed the text to Beowulf online here. The choice of reading it in old English or translated into modern English is facilitated.
