I didn’t think it was shit, I enjoyed it. Haven’t watched Yellowstone yet so not sure if it helps to have done so but wouldn’t have thought so with it being a prequel.I've not seen it yet but it's written by Taylor Sheridan, who wrote Sicario, Wind River and Hell or High Water which were all IMO very good and critically acclaimed, so it'd be a shame and a bit of a surprise if 1883 is shit.
Agree Bill. I watched a few episodes of 1883 - looks like a fun diversion - but not awesome.1883
I like a good Western, but this is slow and dreary. Acting is a bit shit as well.
Really, you didn't like Flight or any Tarantino or Coen Brothers movies,I didn’t think it was shit, I enjoyed it. Haven’t watched Yellowstone yet so not sure if it helps to have done so but wouldn’t have thought so with it being a prequel.
Long stopped telling people what they should or shouldn’t like anymore when it comes to entertainment as it’s personal choice, though I tend to go the opposite of whatever @Bill Walker thinks is great… :-)
Yes mate I've seen it, excellent movie, I really enjoyed it.Agree Bill. I watched a few episodes of 1883 - looks like a fun diversion - but not awesome.
Have you watched the movie, "News of the World"? It's set in roughly the same timeframe, and is, IMO, really, really good.
Wind River was a great film.I've not seen it yet but it's written by Taylor Sheridan, who wrote Sicario, Wind River and Hell or High Water which were all IMO very good and critically acclaimed, so it'd be a shame and a bit of a surprise if 1883 is shit.
Speaking of...Wind River was a great film.
Loved this series - my wife watches anything and everything in this genre. Nicola Walker (she's played a few detective roles) is also very good as his partner.Speaking of...
River
Amazon product ASIN B084T2QBWC
It's nominally a detective mystery - but it's much, much more. About a lonely, elderly cop who recently lost his female partner.
I won't go into further detail - to avoid spoiling the plot.
I can't recommend River enough - 9.9+ out of 10. One of the top 5 series on TV I've ever watched.
Nicola Walker is an amazing actress. Moreover, she seems to be very discriminating - everything I've seen in which she appears is top notch.Loved this series - my wife watches anything and everything in this genre. Nicola Walker (she's played a few detective roles) is also very good as his partner.
The Split is back on BBC1 next week. The only series I have not liked with her was Annika.Loved this series - my wife watches anything and everything in this genre. Nicola Walker (she's played a few detective roles) is also very good as his partner.
Isn't the accent supposed to sound 'off'? The character is an American with dissociative personality disorder. I suspect as the series goes on, we'll discover that the British accent is an unconcious immitation. Oscar Isaac can do a very good British accent (see Agora), so I imagine he's intentionally doing a 'American trying to do a bad British accent'.That might be an issue. I found it jarring in the trailers because it's so different to his usual voice but I have met londoners with a similar accent and he nails the small turns of phrase and IMO sells it pretty well. It's not Dick Van Dyke.
The stand off/shootout at the end is incredible. Not felt that tense watching a movie for years. Brilliantly done.Wind River was a great film.
There's a new one on AMC called "That dirty black bag" or something like that.
It's a western and looks good from the trailers. I'll wait for it to finish so I can watch all at once.
Edit: Added the trailer.
The wife has never watched Lost, so thought I would sit through it again. Half way through season 2 and really enjoying it (been 12 years since I finished it previously), lots of things I had forgotten, however, I know I'm on the road to disappointment again!

Have you watched Unforgiven? Awesome film.Never liked Westerns. Ever.
Watched 1883 last week - I'm hooked. I actually want a Stetson hat.
I'll be on Red Dead Redemption 2 all weekend in between episodes of Deadwood I've just sourced.
