The Outsider (2014)
Directed by Brit 'ard man Craig Fairbrass, straight to 'on demand' and dvd with a miserable 5% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, not a great advert for the movie is it.
Fairbrass plays ex-military Special Ops Lex Walker who is summoned to LA to identify his daughters body, only to find out it's not her, so where is her daughter, and who is covering up information on her whereabouts?
Well the movie has a quite a decent cast, Fairbrass is always watchable as he punches and shoots his way through the LA underbelly as is James Caan as Mr Bad Man, and Jason Patric as a Cop, we also get a wooden appearance from Shannon Elizabeth (American Pie) but these are the only minor plus points in a rather pitiful thriller. Full of clichés, punch up's with security, shoot outs in the middle of the City, with barely a Police response, Fairbrass knocks anyone out who crosses him, and it all comes to a rather predictable show down between our two protagonist's.
