Some of you need to learn how to have fun and not take everything so seriously. I swear some people are so uptight with their reviews. I thought this show so far (I'm three episodes in) is lighthearted and fun. The comedic writing is good, the storyline/plot is entertaining so far and I like Nell and most of the cast. It's fun natured and clearly meant to be entertaining and lighthearted and good fun. You're not watching a freaking documentary for the love of God, so if you expect it to be perfectly accurate to the time period and history, watch something else. This clearly isn't for you. It's fun and it's not meant to be watched as a film snob or to be taken quite so seriously, I thought that was pretty evident from the very first episode...Some of you didn't get the memo clearly.

LOVE this show.

I LOVE this show, reading the book is definitely on my list. I wanted to watch it because I am a huge fan of Michael Sheen & David so of course I had to watch this. And I watched American Gods which also based off Neil's book so I was stoked to watch this.
Definitely DID NOT disappoint, episode three of season 1 is one of my favourites because of all the flashbacks.
I love that Michael and David are real friends in reality after filming this, also watch STAGED with them if you haven't. They filmed it over the pandemic over zoom & it's hilarious, it's on prime video!
Anyways glad this show got a season 2 because it's just fabulous.

Beautifully & hauntingly shot!

This might be one of my favourite films to come out in 2017. It's so beautifully filmed, Taylor Sheridan did an amazing job. The cast is perfect all around & all the scenery shots are so stark & haunting, it really fits in well with the plot. This whole movie made my heart ache since I've known few kids that have lived on reservations & the families & children that grow up there do not have water or electricity in most cases. It breaks my heart because of the way they live, a lot of the youth resort to drugs & drinking to get away from their reality. This movie accurately depicts what every day life is like for Natives. This movie just proves that white man is always out there destroying someone else's life. We are to blame for a lot of the injustices & horrors that have happened in the world & are still happening. This film broke me in more ways than I can count & it was done so well. The soundtrack was perfect, everything about it. Also I've read a few reviews on here where people were complaining that a lot of the actors mumble in this & they were wondering if that's something the director planned on purpose. As someone who's met a few Natives, I can tell you it was not done purposefully. That's just the way Natives talk when they do talk. They have low voices and very seldom are super chatty so they're usually quiet and tend to sound low & quiet. It's as simple as that. If you can't hear or can't understand, get subtitles or turn up your TV. Simple.
Overall I loved this film and would recommend to everyone to watch, but I do warn you it will break your heart to see what these people have to live like & what goes on in their world. I also want to say I'm relieved with how respectful this film is towards the Native community, and overall what a great job Taylor Sheridan did to tell this story with grace. 9/10
