Critics Consensus

With a cast this talented, The Out-Laws can't help but provide some laughs -- but they're too few and far between to make up for the movie's derivative, sitcom-worthy setup.

Audience Says

The Out-Laws is good for a few chuckles, but not much more.

Chicago Reader

DeVine manages to make unapologetic dweebishness charming, and the movie is elevated by a mish-mash of wonderful character-actor bit parts.

Everything you need to know about this movie can be gleaned from its title. That's rarely a good sign.

Rated: 1.5/4

For a Netflix movie that was obviously reverse-engineered from its title, and even more obviously made by the director of The Wrong Missy, Tyler Spindel’s The Out-Laws could be a hell of a lot worse.

Rated: C

Mostly just undemanding, amusing stupidity, which used to be taken as a mild compliment back when comedy was actually a genre of movie that got made.

Rated: B-

While you naturally grow a likeness to a film that throws a joke every 30 seconds, it’s a buzzkill that there is hardly anything worth remembering in a film that even has a high-speed car chase in a cemetery.

Tyler Spindel may have a contract, work cheap, or is part of the company's inventory, but the truth is he doesn't show a talent that's worthy of the ensemble. [Full review in Spanish]

Filme: Meus Sogros Tão pro Crime Elenco: @nina @piercebrosnanofficial Ellen Barkin, @adamdevine @laurenlapkus @poornagraphy @michael_rooker @realrichardkind Modelo: #comédia #trash #ação Duração: 1h 35m Ano: 2023 Minha opinião: O excesso do ator Adam DeVine na sua atuação exagerada estragou. Ou derrepente na escolha do protagonista errou. E também não ferou aquela química entre Nina e Adam é casal que não convence. Como no caso de Pai em Dose Dupla onde tem a química. A atuação boa esta com Ellen e Pierce que vemos a química entre eles. Acredito que fosse outro ator no lugar de Adam o filme poderia dar certo. Pois o roteiro e enredo não são ruim. Owen (Adam) esta vivendo com Parker (Nina), ele trabalha como gerente de banco. E chega o dia que Owen vai conhecer os pais de Parker; Lilly (Ellen) e Billy (Pierce) que na verdade são ladrões de banco. E assim eles assaltam o banco do genro. Mas uma antiga amiga do casal esta atrás deles Rehan (Poorna) uma atriz desconhecida da grande maioria, que faz o seu papel de mafiosa. E onde para Billy se livrar Rehar precisará da ajuda do genro. Kkkkk então a confusão esta feita, mas como disse com exageros de Owen. Vale apena assistir? Se não tiver outra opção, mas não tiver mesmo. Nota: 3

The Out-Laws is an absolutely hilarious action-comedy. An unlikely goody-goody bank manager working with some of the biggest bank robbers to retrieve what’s most important to him. An amazing watch if you’re wanting a good laugh

Truly bad. Why does Levine over act? A different lead could have made it watchable..I wanted to like it but he just drives me crazy with the stupid comments every scene. Just bad.

"The Out-Laws" features a charming cast led by Adam Devine and Pierce Brosnan, whose performances provide a delightful distraction from the film's predictable plot. With very low expectations going in, I found it to be surprisingly decent—though it still falls short of true comedic brilliance. The humor didn't land as much as it should have for a comedy, leaving me chuckling only occasionally. The film feels soulless and lacks the creativity to offer anything new or memorable. While it serves as mindless entertainment, it's nothing more than that. Despite my initial apprehensions, it's not as bad as I expected, but I wish it had more depth and laughter. Overall, "The Out-Laws" is a watchable romp, but it’s a far cry from being a standout comedy.

This was so bad. Terrible script and the main actor made this so cringey. Ruined it for everyone else.
