Da Cap'n 2099 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Ever since Hell On Wheels ended I've felt that western void (the Deadwood movie, I'll believe it when I see it). Texas Rising was forgettable. Couple others, too. Damnation on USA comes close, but I think I found the winner in Netflix's Godless. Gritty. Real. Smart. Original (but familiar). Godless gives me hope that westerns can be at the top of my list again. Still only a few episodes in, but I'm hooked. I hear that the ending is satisfying as hell, too. Can't wait.

Donatella Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 This looks right up NZA's alley. Michelle Dockery is awesome. Loved her in Downton Abbey. Have you seen Westworld? I'm not big on westerns but I really enjoyed that weird take on the genre! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 Yeah, Westworld was cool as shit. Just don't know if I would put it in the same category as Godless or Hell On Wheels. This is, straight up, a western. And, yeah, Nick would love it. But, I think, you would too. The women run the show which is different for a western.

Da Cap'n 2099 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Finally finished this and, yeah, this was great. Badass and gritty as hell. Couple dumb things here and there, but never hurts the whole of the thing. HIGHLY recommended (to western lovers). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
