This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Good start, but then it gets ruined
Ogosmith
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Outrage is like watching someone commit suicide by cutting their throat with a spoon. For an hour and a half, they're just hacking and sawing and stabbing and scraping until you practically want to reach over and help them get it over with. What's being killed here, besides the audience's will to live, is the show business careers of writer Chris Soth, actor/director Ace Cruz and actor/producer Paulyd, nee Paul D'Agnese. I can't imagine any of those gentlemen getting another job in Hollywood or anywhere else movies are made. Not at a studio. Not at a production company. Not waiting tables at a restaurant, walking dogs or dressing up like Willy Wonka and posing for pictures with tourists. Outrage is so existentially awful that Soth, Cruz and D'Agnese probably can't even sell sperm or donate blood in the greater Los Angeles area. Forget about not working in that town again. These guys have been removed from the gene pool.It's sad to see Michael Berryman in this insultingly ill conceived, pathetically graceless and astonishingly incompetent debacle, but it's not like he ever had that much of a career. A man's got to eat, after all. For Michael Madsen and Natasha Lyonne to be found wallowing in this stinking pit of dirt, slime and excrement like a couple of hogs desperately trying to escape the heat
that's almost heartbreaking. Professional sports leagues have taken to holding seminars for rookie players about managing their finances so they don't blow their newfound millions on drugs or bad investments and wind up penniless when their athletic careers are over. Well, somebody should do the same thing for young actors. They should sit them down in a room, make they watch Reservoir Dogs or Slums of Beverly Hills and then force them to view this piece o' crap. The only way anyone with actual talent winds up in something like Outrage is when you're either permanently high, need money more than you need to breathe or have burned down and then salted the earth of every relationship you ever had in the entertainment industry. Madsen or Lyonne doing commercials for hemorrhoid cream would be a step up from this thing.About the only thing you can say for this motion picture is that someone obviously made a real effort to take a mass of howlingly stupid and incoherent footage and edit it together into something vaguely comprehensible. And while I admire the commitment to salvaging something out of this abhorrent disaster, they would have been better off rearranging the scenes under the guidance of a Magic 8 Ball and making the soundtrack a non-stop loop of the Benny Hill theme.The theme of Outrage is that it's the anger in your heart that attracts bad things to you in life, but I could be a serial killer and it wouldn't justify being subjected to this shoddy trash. Narrated by the unholy offspring of Sling Blade and Forrest Gump (Paulyd), the story concerns Christine (Katie Founatain) and her three friends going out to sell the colossal cabin of Christine's dead father. There's her sort of boyfriend Try (Ace Cruz) and two annoying urbanites (Derek Lee Nixon and Natasha Lyonne). Once they arrive, the quartet is set upon by some dude with a rifle (Michael Madsen) and his three inbred, mountain man accomplices. People get killed, somebody turns into a ghost, there's a mute with a banjo and a tuning fork, magic rocks are involved and it's all revealed to be one big, idiotic scam. I seriously do not have the strength of will to go into any more detail. It's that bad.I usually like to give at least one specific example of how much a movie sucks, but Outrage befuddles me. It is like the crayon scribbling of a 6 year old and defies critical analysis. I feel like I should pat these filmmakers on the head and say "Well, at least you pointed the camera in the right direction most of the time".This is one of the worst bits of alleged cinema it has ever been by misfortune to witness. Staring directly into the sun for 90 minutes would be a better use of your time.

I love this movie because it is so amazing. The story is great and it has an all-star casts including my favorite Michael Madsen. This film is packed with thrilling actions that will make you scream. Watching the trailer has made me be interested in watching it not only because of the casts but because of the story. This has a great cinematography and sound effects making you feel the suspense. Michael Madsen had showed awesome talent that made this movie to be excellent. Ace Cruz had also made a great job in directing this film. Though this is an indie film, its quality is far better than other movies made by popular film companies. There are movies that are expensive yet not interesting to watch. Great job Ace Cruz for making a good movie!

The movie had good effects. I thought it was a cross between "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze and "The Hills Have Eyes" Very interesting the way the story line denoted a positive image theme.This movie is worth a watch. You are either entertained with the suspense and fun chase scenes of the movie or be enlightened by the words of wisdom the movie projects. This film is a filled with exciting suspenseful moments and a spiritual message we should all live by. What we have in our hearts is what we attract in our life. I give it a thumbs up.

I was at the screening in Atlanta, Ga., and the movie not only made me think, but the spirituality aspect of the movie, is what drew me in. The message was tremendous! I was on the edge of my seat.Yes, Billy (played by Pauly D) was quite funny in some parts, which I feel was a nice contrast to the very serious goings on, that were necessary to get the point across. In addition to his comedic talent, I feel Pauly D deserves accolades for his true and spot-on portrayal of Billy. Great job! Also, upon overhearing a few people discussing the cost of the film, I was privy to the figure being more like $2.5M. I don't know where the figure $400K came from.As for Ace, Great job acting and directing. Really enjoy your work both on and off the screen.PaulyD: yombtnwthimi
