    Exceedingly grim and often very twisted Western fable. [21 Nov - 4 Dec 2022, p.5]

    The series features gorgeous cloud-specked skies and sweeping horizons in what feels like an homage to John Ford westerns. But most of those elements (including the aforementioned dialogue) feel assembled in such a self-conscious and heavy handed way as to blunt the tribute, making it difficult to discern for whom this exercise is intended, other than creating a TV vehicle to bring Blunt’s marquee name to Amazon’s content-hungry shelves.

    Despite the languid pace of the first episode, the unique perspectives at play in The English make it different enough from your standard Western to make it interesting.
