Outland (1981)

A space western detective story with a badass Space Marshall, O'Neil (Sean Connery) and a snarky Space Doctor (Frances Sternhagen). Peter Boyle is unrecognizable.

The production design reminded me of Alien.

The way people die in this movie is rather explosive. The countdown clock was unnecessary. The special effects did not age well. And sniper shotguns?

I enjoyed this seemingly underrated Connery film, it was really entertaining.

Rated 7 out of 10.

Movie post for Outland with Sean Connery in a space suit. Words read: "On Jupiter's moon, something deadly is happening."

it’s basically High Noon in space. Completely serviceable movie. Good, but great.

Been awhile since I last saw #Outland (1981). As I recall, I liked it (as I like most #SeanConnery movies) but I don't own the #DVD, which means it was ok but not a notable film, warranting a rating of 5-6 at best from me.

I didn't encounter this movie probably until a decade after it's release, much like Alien, but was pleasantly surprised, and have watched regularly since then.

I love this movie.

Going to be that guy and note that people do not explode even when explosively decompressed.

Still a good movie.
