The Outpost (2019)
8/10
The criticism that the movie doesn't develop the 'minor' squad members is patently ridiculous.
4 July 2020
I've been watching war movies since the fifties and this is the most rousing-harrowing-insane-based on a real-alamo event war movie I've seen. Which up till now was the last third of "Come and See". For me, this is essentially the Afghan version of "ZULU". The criticism that the movie doesn't develop the 'minor' squad members is patently ridiculous. The movie is ABOUT them. If anything, this shows why you maybe shouldn't: it hurts when the stuff hits the fan and boy does it hit hard. A deserved heavy weight of poignance pervades the credits. Excellent work by Caleb Landry Jones. Scott Eastwood's DNA causes him to appear to be doing a weak imitation of Clint.
