I was unfamiliar with Bass Reeves prior to this, but I truly hope Isaiah Washington makes more movies about this incredible lawman. The movie was intense, and sometimes was even horrifying. It definitely does not offer a glamorized view of life in the Wild West. It was very suspenseful and had some truly evil characters. Beautiful scenery throughout and the cinematographer did a wonderful job. Makes me miss my home state of Texas. Well done to the cast and crew. I hope Mr Washington will direct more movies. He certainly has a knack for it. And his portrayal of Bass Reeves was authentic and thoughtful.

I can only assume the reviews giving this 9 and 10 are paid for, or know the cast/crew. I realise it's a subjective matter, but I don't know how anyone could give this film more than a 5.

As it stands, it's the first western I haven't been able to finish. The writing is awful, the direction is all over the place and the music feels like it was added by someone who hasn't watched movies since the 80s and 90s. It's soulless.

The only thing that saves it from getting a 1 from me is opening 20 minutes, which made me think I was going to be watching a darkly engaging, if basic, western. It was a strong opening. I'm really not sure what went wrong. Perhaps the team thought they were making a statement piece, when they should have been concentrating on the entertaining the viewer.

I'll keep waiting patiently for a film that does justice to Bass Reeves.

Has a bit of a shocking to the senses beginning, but a really good storyline. It's all about the hunt with some interesting characters. Great job Robert Johnson in the wedding. Includes the historical character Marshal Bass Reeves. I was glad to see the end wrapped you the characters nicely, at least the ones the survived. Isaiah Washington did an excellent job as Deputy U. S. Marshal Bass Reeves, including capturing his appearance.

A good all-around independent movie with quality cinematography, music, locations, and character development. Great to see a movie shot in Texas with local support.

Certainly worth your time, but definitely an R rating so not good for the little ones.

This show lacked the quality in writing, acting, and historical accuracy. It was nothing but a sorry attempt at right winged propaganda for actors who rightfully been off screen for years. Save some time and watch the actual Bass Reeves mini series instead of this sorry attempt. Isiah Washington, man I've been watching him since the early 2000's and I was rooting for a redemption but he truly has gone off the deep end with this. I'm a generational Texan who was looking forward to some true Texan heroics and was severely let down. To take such an iconic story line and butcher it so badly takes a lot of skill, not good skill but just skill in the worst of ways.

Finally a believable western that dares to stay away from the tropes of saloons and tumbleweeds. This film is beautiful on the big screen as Isaiah Washington brings a forgotten hero to life. It is refreshing to see a western detective story that concentrates on the journey and pays homage to the real life US Deputy Marshal Bass Reeves. It's funny how the left hates conservative film makers. As the "Epoch Times" said, "First-time director Isaiah Washington's mesmerizing, mythical film is the best revisionist Western since Eastwood's "Unforgiven" from 1992. As of this writing, it is also my favorite movie of 2022." This is indeed a smart, "Thinking Mans" western. Well done and beautifully shot.
