The Outlaws, 2017 – ★★★
The compelling performances by Ma Dong-seok and Yoon Kye-sang elevate the film, making it an engaging experience from start to finish. Their strong presence has me eager to check out the other films in this series.

The film treads familiar ground, offering nothing we haven’t seen countless times before. The unsatisfying ending only adds to the overall disappointment.
Initially, I was torn between giving it 1 or 4 stars, but after some thought, it definitely deserves 4 stars for capturing the 1970s retro-futuristic aesthetic perfectly. Alvarez’s bold direction and commitment to the style make it a standout entry in the series.
The stunts and questionable acting offer some fun moments, but they fall short of their full potential. I found myself wishing they had pushed the envelope just a bit more to make it truly memorable.
Even by Mark Polonia standards, this film feels like a low-effort endeavor, lacking the usual charm of his work. The minimal effort put into the production makes it hard to find anything redeeming.
After the intriguing premise wears off, there’s little to hold your interest. The film struggles to maintain engagement, leaving it feeling somewhat flat.
The one redeeming quality of this film is Nick Damici’s dedicated performance; he never phones it in, even when the material falls flat. His effort is the only thing keeping this movie remotely watchable.
The script felt a bit undercooked, leading to a movie that often struggled with uneven pacing and tone. Despite some interesting moments, it never quite finds its footing.
Three movies in, and we’re still left without any real answers or explanations, which is starting to wear thin. The lack of resolution makes it hard to stay invested in the series.

This sequel offers a stronger story than the first, but the two-hour runtime tests your patience. Despite its improvements, the pacing makes it a bit of a slog to get through.
This film feels more like a propaganda piece aimed at rehabilitating the band’s tarnished image rather than an honest documentary. The lack of critical outsude perspective makes it hard to take seriously.
This film marks a real low point for Full Moon Pictures, offering little in the way of entertainment. The lack of fun makes it a disappointing experience overall.
The film is much sillier than I remembered, but it still has a certain charm. The monster suits remain incredible, showcasing some impressive practical effects.
This film is an enjoyable watch, though it doesn’t quite capture the same level of excitement as Barkett’s Empire of the Dark. While entertaining, it lacks the interesting story that made his other work more engaging.
