By Molly Freeman (149) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 18 Oct 2018

Review of Outlaw King (2018)

Pine neither convinces as a conflicted peacekeeper nor a resolute resistance fighter…

Review of Outlaw King (2018)

By Joe Reid (103) for Decider (264) on 07 Sep 2018

It's a big, bloody, beautifully-filmed epic with so much more personality than I've come to expect from a movie of this genre…

Review of Outlaw King (2018)

By Kayleigh Donaldson (8) for Pajiba (523) on 07 Sep 2018

There are moments of such directorial confidence - a totally showboating opening scene seemingly done in one take sticks out - that you can't…

Review of Outlaw King (2018)

Review of Outlaw King (2018)

By Jason Bailey (832) for The Playlist (3,871) on 06 Sep 2018

By David Ehrlich (1,229) for IndieWire (3,631) on 06 Sep 2018
