The visuals as well as Emily’s performance are definitely Emmy Award worthy. One of the best shows I’ve watched in the last few years.

Fantastic slow-building old-school western with great characters, beautiful visuals, and a striking score. The story is complex and confusion over character backstory and motivation is complicated by shifts between present and 15 yearsFantastic slow-building old-school western with great characters, beautiful visuals, and a striking score. The story is complex and confusion over character backstory and motivation is complicated by shifts between present and 15 years earlier, nonetheless, its refreshing to have a period piece that makes you think and listen carefully to each line and which is able to criticise the politics of the past without shoe-horning in present-day agendas.… Expand

binge watched the whole show as soon as it dropped and let me tell you: it’s the most beautiful thing i have ever seen. the visuals are incredible, every shot could be a painting and the chemistry between emily & chaske made me fall in lovebinge watched the whole show as soon as it dropped and let me tell you: it’s the most beautiful thing i have ever seen. the visuals are incredible, every shot could be a painting and the chemistry between emily & chaske made me fall in love with these two characters and their story that was truly written in the stars.

to think this is the first project emily blunt got really credited as an executive producer and its getting rave reviews makes me even prouder. she's such a powerhouse in this show and she has been proving for so long how multifaceted she is. i truly truly believe this is THE performance of her career, and i hope she gets recognized by it for every possible award show next year.

what a masterpiece. what a way to close 2022. what a gift hugo blick, emily blunt, chaske spencer and every person involved in this beautiful project gave us. it actually made me SOB when i finished. ❤️… Expand

What a unique western - weirdly paced, full of fantastic and phantasmic characters that seem like there were conjured up in a fever-dream, and idiosyncratic like you have never seen, yet also grounded with excellent character arcs, settings,What a unique western - weirdly paced, full of fantastic and phantasmic characters that seem like there were conjured up in a fever-dream, and idiosyncratic like you have never seen, yet also grounded with excellent character arcs, settings, and a bit of loose history thrown in.

Add a great cast. Highly recommended.… Expand
