Critic Reviews of "Outside the Law"
Time OutMay 03, 2011It's a big, bold film defined by a reserved passion, a stately style and strong performances from its three leads.
Minneapolis Star TribuneMarch 31, 2011It's a ham-handed "issue" movie that preaches to the converted, but the mid-century threads look cool and those Coppola moments remain effective all these years later.
Toronto StarMarch 25, 2011Think The Godfather II as told through France vs. Algeria tensions, and you have the essence of Rachid Bouchareb's vivid combo crime saga, action movie and historical drama.
Arizona RepublicMarch 02, 2011"Outside the Law" is an epic film about Algeria's fight for liberation from France, with three outstanding performances and a grand, sweeping feel.
Philadelphia InquirerFebruary 17, 2011A gripping French-Algerian coproduction that makes Algeria's epic struggle for independence from France look like a gangster movie.
San Francisco ChronicleFebruary 10, 2011The movie is impressively made but finally feels rote and, at 138 minutes, outstays its welcome.
Movie MetropolisDecember 29, 2011Ultimately, the common criminal has as much in common with the career soldier and the idealistic revolutionary . . . .
Fan The FireMay 20, 2011Outside The Law is a fairly run of the mill slice of historical action/crime-drama, but ironically one that has just enough story to sustain your attention, but all too little historical fact to truly deserve your it to begin with.
Birmingham PostMay 19, 2011Part Western, part Godfather and with topical reflections of French colonialism meeting contemporary struggles for freedom in north Africa head-on, this is a thought-provoking film despite its over-ambitious nature.
ScotsmanMay 16, 2011Bouchareb makes subtle points here about the damaging legacy of colonial rule.
Total FilmMay 10, 2011Exciting but one-sided, Bouchareb's film is a Melville-lite study of honour among dangerous men.
The SkinnyMay 09, 2011A little on the long side, it nonetheless keeps us involved in the deadly cat-and-mouse games between the Algerian freedom fighters and increasingly desperate police, and the performances from the reliable trio of lead actors are excellent.
