Sean Connery is being hunted down by guys with sniper-scopes mounted to their shotguns!
And they mean business. Sparing no time for aiming with their red-vision scopes, they instead shoot from the hip. They are so trigger-happy that they seemingly forget they’re in a space station, blasting windows and getting sucked into outer-space.
Outland is a 1981 science fiction cowboy-ish movie, taking place on a mining station somewhere around Jupiter. Sean Connery is the marshal in charge.
And when the jeans-and-flannel-coat-wearing outlaws get tough . . . Sean Connery has the good sense to put on a spacesuit.

It’s actually a remake of “High Noon” in outer space, or at least it was supposed to be. I remember when it came out. For it’s day, it wasn’t real bad, at least in my book.
