Outlander

I saw it. I was really excited to see it and waited a long time. I was disappointed. I was hoping for a bit better. Ron Pearlman's part was pretty small. I did enjoy his double hammer head shot. I always wanted to see the Mighty Thor do that with Mjolnir and Beta-Ray Bill's hammer, Stormbringer.
I was disappointed that Caviezal lost his ray gun immediately. I would consider it substandard by normal movie standards, but the ultimate epic by SyFy channel standards.

Wow, this film has taken ages to get released, I saw it last year sometime.
Good movie though, stupid but excellent
My kind of movie then.
Going to see Inglorious tonight.
I saw it... And unfortunately I was underwhelmed. I usually like Sophia Myles, but her character bugged me. And the background on the main character was a bit hamfisted. Add viking caricatures, and I understand why it went direct-to-DVD here in the states. Still, it had some good moments, just not enough of them.
Hmm, yes it may have had a short limited theatrical run, you could be right. But not anywhere where I live. 
My dad recommended the movie to me a few months ago so I checked it out, and I enjoyed it. It had a good cast and the combination of the Caviezel's future-guy and the Viking-era was pretty cool. The ending they seemed to suggest they could make a sequel to continue Caviezel's adventures with the Vikings, but somehow I doubt that will happen.
The soundtrack for Outlander is fantastic. Since no one else had mentioned it, I thought I would.
I love the film. Vikings! Giant monsters! What's not to love? Oh, and Sophia Myles!
Though I started wondering what might've happened if Outlander had had a wide theatrical release. Would there have been people who went to the film, thinking that it was an adaptation of the time-travel romance series of the same name? (Such is how I saw Ultraviolet; thinking it was a big screen adaptation of the British vampire series, I was sorely disappointed to discover that it was a overlit piece of crap.)

A sequel would be interesting, but I doubt we'd ever see one. The film was something like 50 million to make, it sat on the shelf for two years, and then it was essentially dumped direct-to-video. It's unfortunate, because Outlander is a lot of fun.

So, it's like seeing the best Skiffy monster movie ever?
Sounds worth a rental...
It was OK. A fun couple of hours but nothing too special.
I've seen it twice and I must say I liked it better the second time.
