A small unit of U.S. soldiers, alone at the remote Combat Outpost Keating, located deep in the valley of three mountains in Afghanistan, battles an overwhelming force of Taliban fighters in a coordinated attack. The Battle of Kamdesh became the bloodiest American engagement of the Afghanistan War in 2009, and Bravo Troop 3-61 CAV became one of the most decorated units of the 19-year conflict.

Told with gripping realism, The Outpost is a thrilling technical feat and a worthy tribute to military heroes.

It's a true-life story, masterfully directed by Rod Lurie who instinctively captures the danger, risks and moments of desperation and humanity of the event.

Each death mattered. Each sacrifice resonated. Each act of heroism in the face of overwhelmingly lethal odds stopped my heart and forced me to pay rapt attention.

It is, at best, a somewhat average war film. [Full review in Spanish]

While the first half of “The Outpost” is a borderline disservice, the second half is a fitting tribute to the soldiers who fought the Battle of Kamdesh.

🍅 7.4/10 “this time my sources are telling me that the Talibans are coming on us” “how many are gonna come on us?” I feel like with this film it perfectly captures the brotherhood and camaraderie of the soilders and all the lil banter. It also has its fair share of intense and even emotional moments. It’s consistently entertaining throughout and worth the watch it’s a good little gem on Netflix and it’s leaving pretty soon do check it out if you’re into he’s kind of movies. Also the stay tuned for the interviews at the end of the credits.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Netflix is kinda hit or miss with their action movies, their military films are a little bit better, but they hit this one outta the park. Very surprising intense non-stop military action with no soft spots.

Not quite sure all the five star reviews and what they saw, but they really isn’t a storyline. The acting is subpar and it’s just a bunch of sensationalism if you are a military buff you will just shake your head for the whole movie. Better ways to tie up two hours of your time.

Enjoyed this one. I'd put it up there with the better war movies. Kind of movie that grew on me the longer it went. First half is the set up with brief flurries of action then the second half is non-stop entertainment.

Good movie one can not deny they held out, but of course it is all from the American side of things, to make America look good, when they were in a country they had no business being in.
