He travels to London, but is informed that he needs to fly to LA to identify the body. When he arrives at the morgue, he finds that the corpse is not hers and decides to look for Samantha´s whereabouts. He discovers the last phone calls and places where Samantha was and meets her former boss Karl Schuuster (James Caan), who has a suspicious behavior. Lex proceeds his investigation, while is followed by Detective Klein (Jason Patric) that is assigned for the case, and by Schuuster's men that want to find Samantha. What happened to Samantha?

"The Outsider" is an absolutely underrated action film. The story is good, the characters are well-developed and the conclusion is highly entertaining. Fortunately I have not seen the IMDb User Rating before watching this movie; otherwise I would might have been misguided. Fans of action films will certainly enjoy "The Outsider". My vote is seven.
