Godless

What a gem this is. You gotta thank Netflix for letting this creation blossom and see the light of day. Scott Frank did a fantastic job here; the story is very intriguing and one of the best character building in recent westerns. The direction and cinematography are top notch. It is undeniable that we have a classic on our hands.

If someone would have told me the plot of this show, I would have said nah I'm not watching it. Since no one told me and I'm a sucker for westerns, I did and by god am I glad I did. This show is fantastic! The music is some of the best I've heard in a TV show. The flow is great, the characters have character, the story is so well told. The cast were amazing, I couldn't find anyone to dislike in terms of their character.

Listen, if you're into westerns. You should stop reading this and watch it now! If you're not into westerns and wondering about it, then yes I'd recommend it. It's a good western to get a taste of the genre. It's only 7 episodes so you don't have to stick with it for long. You'd be convince in 1-2 episodes anyway.

Godless is easily one of my favorite westerns I've seen in a long time. I'm actually blown away by how much I liked it. I had high expectations because of all the great ratings and reviews and it not only met those expectations but surpassed them in every way! The writing and acting is would really makes this show so special. Jack O'Connell and Jeff Daniels both give award worthy performances. It's a western that takes place in New Mexico in the 1880's. It follows Roy Goode (O'Connell) who's an ex protege of a a dangerous gang leader named Frank Griffin (Daniels) as he runs from his mentor and hides out in a town full of women after all the men died in a mining accident. If you haven't seen this series yet then do yourself a favor and go watch it as soon as possible!

I can't say anything about Godless that hasn't already been said! It's fantastic and judging by the ratings/reviews, most people seem to agree with me! It's easily one of my favorite westerns of all-time! Jack O'Connell and Jeff Daniels lead an absolutely incredible cast who are all at the top of their game here! Everything about this amazing show is great, I really can not recommend this show enough!

This show is hard to watch with its graphic violence and truths of the times in which it took place. I cannot imagine how hard existence was for folks who travelled to and homesteaded the west. I'm sure much of the very things portrayed in these episodes took place and some probably even worse.

The acting was excellent. The scripts were so believable. I was glad to see Jeff Daniels in a lead role though his character was brutal and, well, Godless. Who knows if any of us would be the same if we were faced with situations such as the ones portrayed in these episodes. Don't judge a man (or woman) until you've walked in their shoes.
