Reception

The Move Scene gave the movie a bad review stating that: "What this all boils down to is that "Outside the Law" is not a great Cynthia Rothrock movie and unfortunately the editing and camera work robs the audience of what they watch the movie for which is Rothrock kicking butt. But for action fans it is just about watchable even if it is all incredibly familiar".^[1] Robert Pardi from TV Guide the film two of four possible stars, concluding: "A well-constructed star vehicle, this vigorous action flick exploits Rothrock's athletic prowess without taxing her acting skill. Her unique niche as a female action icon remains secure in this fast-paced, escapist trifle".^[2]

Outside the Law currently holds an 86% score on Rotten Tomatoes and is regarded as "Fresh".^[3]
