Jan 17, 2023This is rude, this is art, from music to the fantastic camera angles. If you want easy netflix-entertainmemt without any soul, don't watch this, you could maybe even feel something and that's terrifying for people these days

Jan 20, 2023There's so much beauty in every frame, and so much pleasure in watching it unfold, you don't want it to ever end. I don't think it's worse or better than Too Old to Die Young, it's just more of the same magic, however different the story might be.

Feb 24, 2023A bit odd, artistic and slow. Couldn’t really get into it. Can’t really recommend it.
Awards & Rankings

While I appreciated many elements — particularly the look and surreal vibe — “Cowboy” moseys a little too slow for my tastes. That said, Winding Refn is a true original.

It’s difficult to imagine casual Netflix subscribers taking to Refn’s unbridled-Id thriller, but fans of the unpredictable, the bizarre, and the deviant will be delighted to see the streamer investing so heavily in the auteur’s flights of phantasmagoric fancy.

Moment to moment, Copenhagen Cowboy offers plenty of pleasures: the cool of its taciturn hero, the romance of a brokenhearted gangster figure, the wicked thrill of impending violence, the beauty of one particularly vivid shade of cobalt. Added together, though, they amount to a greatest-hits compilation of Refn’s earlier works, rather than a singular statement in its own right.
