What gives the show its kick is the gleefully childish lack of repentance shown by most of these rascals--countered by Olyphant's coolly amused control. [4 Feb 2013, .39]
-
It keeps going about its business, getting better than ever each season with a restrained but gripping approach that's also sure to wear well decades from now.
-
The dialogue in the first two episodes of the new season crackles with brilliance.
-
Character--as the old saying goes--is a long-standing habit, and their habits remain very much intact. The same could be could be said of Justified.
-
Justified is the strongest, liveliest, and most tonally accurate adaptation of the writer's work to date, and the latest season bracingly suggests that isn't likely to change anytime soon.
-
By forcing Raylan to retrace his father's decades-old steps, Yost is reinventing his show yet again, but he's also going deeper into the heart and mind of the man with the big hat and gun.
-
The dialogue remains as pin-prick sharp as usual, with that clever mix of directness and humor.
-
For all its gore, gunfire, and criminal nastiness, it's a joyous show; even when the characters are scowling, the show seems to be grinning at you.
-
A fourth season of wryly amusing but often shockingly brutal backwoods mayhem.
-
The lovely thing about Justified is that it delivers all the shaggy charm of a diverting character piece even as a supple, strongly structured story gives the whole affair an unmistakable energy and direction.
-
The fourth season of Justified gives us exactly what we want: much laconic tough-guy humor from Timothy Olyphant's U.S. marshal Raylan Givens, much grandiloquent nastiness from Walton Goggins' drug dealer Boyd Crowder, and much swift violence.
-
Justified takes a purely procedural setup and turns it into a long-term story arc, a season-long mystery that will presumably get less goofy than it first appears.
-
It's intriguing and promising that season four kicks off with another detour–this time into the past–that connects to Harlan County here and now.
-
Always fun, the first two hours of the FX drama's fourth season are also meandering, introducing several new players, but as yet failing to betray much about how or when they'll intersect. Fortunately, star Timothy Olyphant by himself remains ample reason to tune in.
