Outlander movie (Vikings - Predator)

Anyone seen this, released July 2008 it sounds like a good SF movie. (I hope). I just found out about it.

One of the writers wrote Underworld & Conan (2010). So im thinking this might be a ok movie.

It destroyed his world. He won't let it destroy ours. Plot:

During the reign of the Vikings, Kainan (Caviezel), a man from a far-off world, crash lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator known as the Moorwen. Though both man and monster are seeking revenge for violence committed against them, Kainan leads the alliance to kill the Moorwen by fusing his advanced technology with the Viking's Iron Age weaponry.

IMBD review

I managed to see this in Spain over Christmas. It's a really fun movie and gave me just what I was looking for. Great SF, plenty of action and a bit of drama in the mix as well. The sets, music and cinematography were good too. James Caviezel was excellent as usual as was Sophia Myles - to think of it, there wasn't a bum note in the cast and the script was fine. The battle scenes were very well done and the monster was as good as anything else i've seen on the big screen. Aliens, Vikings and Spacemen..come on! It's one of those movies I would buy on DVD and i've had a look on the official site etc..The positive feedback i've seen lately seems to have had an impact because the straight to DVD option has been shelved and the UK distributor has changed the release date from Feb to the Easter break. With any luck they will beef up the marketing and give this canny film the boost it deserves. If you like 13th Warrior or AVP type movies then this'll do for you.

Is that old guy third from the left John Hurt? :hmm:

But then he always looked old...even when he was young.

Looks like it.. and the the guy with the two hammers looks like Ron Perlman (sp?)

Kind of difficult to tell with all that manly hair on his face. Almost looks like him though. :hmm: That John Hurt look-a-like definitely looks like, well, John Hurt. :lol:

according to the IMDB credits

it is infact john hurt and ron pearlman

Well, if it has Antonio Banderas in it and he quickly learns their Viking lingo in just a few nights by simply watching their lips move as they throw curses and insults at each other over a campfire I'll go see it....when it goes to video.
