What an impressive movie, you''re on the edge of your seat a lot of times. Humor and grief so close together. Also stay for the end credits you''ll get real interviews with survivors!

**08/10** One of the best war films to come out in recent years. Though at first it may seem like a generic war film and given the VOD cast and the poster I wouldn''t blame you. But the theme, story and battle sequences are impressive to say the least. Please don''t be put off by the disjointed first half, because the latter half makes up for it in entirety. All in all, don''t skip this one. It is definitely much better and deep than the Mark Wahlberg shoot ''em ups out there.

deserves a much higher IMDb score, extremely intense.

Typical American war Movie, nothing special about it, always the heroes and always the others are the bad guys.

I don''t know what to say about this movie. It is definitely worth watching to see how our tax dollars are spent. As a veteran Marine I will just say that the movie left me more than just a little pissed off to watch my brothers in arms die so needlessly. While I can''t question the brass for putting them there without intelligence reports, more should definitely have been done to secure their position. This was a CLUSTER FUCK of the highest magnitude! This is not just a war movie. Please understand that Americans gave their lives when you watch this movie. These are not '"characters'" and hopefully at the end you are as outraged as I am.

The acting was fairly good and the visual effects were great. The first hour was suspenseful and a bit slower but there is enough action to keep you interested. The way they filmed the ending was gripping and almost felt as though you were there. The best war film I’ve seen for a couple of years.

Based on the Battle of Kamdesh in the Afghanistan War, _The Outpost_ is a gritty and captivating film. The story follows a group of soldiers who are sent to Outpost Keating, one of the most indefensible US bases in Afghanistan, as they ward off regular attacks by the Taliban, culminating is a full-on assault in one of the bloodiest battles of the war in which two soldiers received the Medal of Honor for their heroic actions. Starring Scott Eastwood, Orlando Bloom, and Caleb Landry Jones, the film has a pretty good cast that delivers strong performances. However, there are some pacing issues, as the plot lags at times, and there’s a lot of needless vulgarity and crassness to show how tough and on edge the soldiers are. Still, the fight sequences are incredibly intense and exciting. And director Rod Lurie does an impressive job at using the locations and showing how isolated and confined the base was. _The Outpost_ has its problems, but in the end proves to be a powerful film about the courage and sacrifice.
