Outsiders: Ponyboy... Stay Gold

Fri, 28 Dec 2007 20:13:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author freebird91 - Growing up in the 80's, I noticed quite a few movies that used the 50s and 60s as the timeframe, The Outsiders is one of the films that did this... and a fine job if I might add. The movie was released in 1983, and based on the book from S.E. Hinton...

Outsiders: Outsiders

Sat, 18 Feb 2006 15:22:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author scorpioangel - The outsiders was an exalant film. It is very well done. Although the special efects when Johnny killed the Soc were kind of lame.

Tue, 13 Nov 2001 04:36:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author artbyjude - This film has to go down in film history as one the the most underrated of movies created since 1950.

Mon, 28 May 2001 20:18:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bomberbo7 - Although a book is usually better than a movie, in this case the movie was just a tad better than the book. This case happens to be The Outsiders by S.E.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author SKAD13 - Francis Coppola's movie version of S.E. Hinton's novel The Outsiders suffers from having too good of a pedigree. It might have come off better if a lesser-known director had been at the helm. The movie takes the book's references to Gone With the Wind...
