This is a strange one that keeps you on your toes from episode to episode.

Gets you hooked once you start A cross between Quentin Tarantino And a spaghetti western.

Hmm, the people who like it, really like it and the people who dislike it really dislike it, quite a quandary. My take is thus. If you read up on the show before hand the description is completely apt. Over the last 20 years many western fans have lamented that the genre was a dead horse, so this group have given you exactly what you want ie: Gratuitous Bloody Violence, killings galore, pretty prostitutes, forlorn farmers, evil land Barons, Corrupt officials etc... Lots of viewers use Eastwoods spaghetti westerns as the benchmark but that's unfair to this gem in that it is far more Italian, in the vain of Sabata or A pistol for Ringo or A bullet for the General. It's full of deceit, manipulation and a really weird one episode side story that just made it more intriguing for me.👍👍

I don't understand the negativity around this series. It has all you want in a western. Just because it's not made in America and is directed by Italians? Get a grip. It's a dark and gory western and keeps you hooked throughout! If you simply enjoy this genre then I very much recommend.

That Dirty Black Bag is a dark, sometimes violent but we'll written and acted western that pays homage to the classic spagetti westerns of the 60s with Clint Eastwood, Lee van Cleef and a host of well known actors of the time. Not only is it filmed in the province of Almeria, Spain (near Tabernas) with its stark, dry, desolate landscape, but it has overtones of Quentin Tarantino's dramatic, violent, oversized red credits style similar to what we saw in The Hateful 8. But more importantly it's a nod to the great director Sergio Leone who pioneered the good vs evil western with closeups of the cool, calculating and terror-filled faces with rousing academy award winning music by Ennio Moricone. We see hints of Sergio's directing style throughout the series but especially in episode 8 "The Great Duel" which is so reminiscent of the final scenes of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly replete with a cemetery, wide angle POV followed by angst-ridden closeups of the gunslingers as they prepare to shoot em' up. To make it even more interesting the evil protagonist is of Italian descent and of course the crew is 95% Spanish. As I write this there are few ratings for the last few episodes but I expect this series to be a sleeper, and fan reviews will come out soon with headlines like "the best western you missed" or that you should see... Definitely in the 8 area of IMDB...

I'm a fan of the old spaghetti Westerns and enjoyed watching this one. I found myself anxious to see what happens next after each episode and hope AMC does a season 2!

Just completed season 1.

This is a very solid western, it has its usual story lines that you may find familiar if you've seen many westerns. I really like the characters and the backstories - there is a very creepy undertone to the entire series. This TV show has a LOT of potential.

The main takeaways :

• This is definitely worth your time
• The casting and acting is really good (Not to mention they have a seem good budget)
• the first 3 episodes are a tiny bit mundane so the real meat is ep 4 onward
• .As far as westerns goes - this is a action packed one

Happy watching This is my first review ever :)

The show has a lot of twists and turns but all believable and realistic. It's certainly not a Hollywood style film where you know what's going to happen and there is way too much cheese. This show is very realistic with some really great screen writing and acting. It's quality and I'm surprised there aren't more reviews of the show. I really hope they do at least a second season and I could certainly see this going on for a good four seasons, but only if they keep the sane people who made the first season. This is the big problem with a lot of shows is that they don't retain the same people who made it great and that includes actors but also screenwriters, casting, directing and so on. They don't need to change a thing! I think next season is going to attract a lot more viewers and I see this show going hire up on the charts if they continue to make this type of quality show. Westerns are real popular right now because they're raw and real! I think people like it a lot because they hate how much society controls us and fantasize about a time when people made the rules and they were freer but also had to fight to survive in a very different way than now. All around gear show and if the people at AMC are reading this then I hope you take my word for it that this show has too much potential to not make a second season!

It's an awesome show, gritty western. Watched first episode, great even pace. Acting is good, I'm hooked & can't wait to see the different characters eventual collision. It's already an explosive beginning...

This is a very weird series. Although the story ties together and clearly was thought out from the first episode it still felt like each episode was written on the fly. A lot of it could have and should have been eliminated to make a tighter story. 4 episodes instead of 8 would have been more than sufficient. Also, the ending is unsatisfying. The acting was good so it's a 4.

It is a western ! And it is a good western - it has dominick cooper !! I thought every show and movie these days could only take place in a "universe" where people where capes. Between this show and 1883, i am hoping that westerns get a little more love. I am so sick of the super hero stuff. Its been going on for a decade now. It has been nothing but wonky cgi generated super hero's doing wonky super hero things via bad cgi and vfx. Burnt out. Give us more content like this please ! Good stuff ! Now, put your head in my sac.

I'm not sure there is enough here to compel me to keep watching. The main problem is there is not enough here in the first episode to justify further viewing. There is nothing you haven't seen before in a Western. Characters boil down to a brutal outlaw, crooked sheriff, desperate farmer, crime kingpin and an ambitious brothel owner. The brutal violence adds a little flavor and some of the cinematography is nice to look at. Some of the story threads are a little interesting. For example, red bill's predicament at the end of episode one. Unfortunately, everything else is a little boring in my opinion. That Dirty Black Bag has potential, but the first episode does not do a good enough job keeping me intrigued for further viewing.

Loved the show from the first minute another diamond in the rough great cast(Dominic cooper for example from preacher another great show) and filmed really well don't let the other comments put you off this is a top show.

It isn't as good as it should be but I think it's still alright considering only the pilot episode's out. The cast lineup is full of actors who often play supporting roles pretty well so I'm looking forward to the rest of the episodes to see how it unfolds. I'm surprised I didn't hear about this show prior because I really just came across it by chance. For the most part, it felt like a simple, daytime action spaghetti western but there are a couple scenes that suggest things might get a little more crimson, I hope it does because it feels like it's floating in no man's land, it's not too this, not too that so it doesn't feel unique and memorable. Not bad, it can be better, I'm gonna watch the next couple episodes to see how it goes.

UPDATE: Few episodes in now and it's getting better, there's an intriguing story building up with a couple subplots and I'm looking forward to seeing how they all connect. Nothing to really complain about, nothing spectacular but everything's pretty decent and it might turn out to be a good or good enough show just that it doesn't seem to be attracting a lot of viewers. Whether that's due to lack of promotion or people just not as interested in spaghetti westerns anymore, I don't know.

This is better than 99% of the shows put out in the past 5 years.

The pacing is perfect. The framing is at par with the best movies you've seen. The characters are complete people and not just serving a plot.

The plots that exist are well written and unravel at a very good pace.

The actors are obviously having a blast.

I can't recommend this show enough. I hope it's on for a long time!

Spaghetti Western? Yep. Made in Spain instead of Italy. Dark western. Yep. Arty film? Yep. Great cast? Absolutely. Shock factor for shock factor value only. Yep. Blood and guts? TONS of it! Good writing? Not sure. I have no idea what the story line is - other than a town filled with very angry people and some religious ones too. But a story. Haven't found it yet. Black bag and all. Visually: Absolutely stunning.

Even the music is reminiscent of another series, but I'll be darned if I can remember which one. Makin' me nuts! Like this series!

Once you think you have it figured it out - you don't. Now I'm conflicted. Should I call this a spoiler? I doubt it. If you stick with this series - you know what you're in for much sooner than later. And you'll be reminded very often.

This is a bummer because it could be decent but the acting is pretty bad, especially the lead. He feels very forced and out of place. Probably not a show I'll stick with.

I wrote a "preliminary review" as I watched the first episode. Having finished the first season's 8 episodes now, I'd have to say it met my expectations and more. The cinematography and acting are superb. A very interesting cast of characters played with great finesse by top-notch actors. It is set somewhere in the Old West, but it's beyond the usual spaghetti Westerns by being more mythic and somewhat "supernatural." If there's a downside, that I'm sure some viewers will not like, it's that the the symbolism and hysterical motivations are kind of far-fetched. But as I said before, the "Mad Max" series was also far-fetched but due to being a fantasy of a dystopian world.

This is for sure a dystopian "Old West," extremely grim and violent. Reminds me of Cormac McCarthy's famous trilogy. If violence gives you the flibberty-gibbets, then don't watch it. I won't comment about the finale except to say that the following seasons are going to be made or broken by how that turns out.

Nah, it doesn't break any new ground, but you might break a dark smile. Bag an episode of decapitation laughs and head on down to the sordid saloon. (Waffle here to fill out the required character limit.)

One of the best TV shows out there, great acting, action, its also fun. It must be hidden gem as i see not many have seen it. If you havent defo give it try.

This is a new spaghetti western. This centers on a dusty town and its inhabitants. There hasn't been rain in years. The gold mine has run dry but a farmer finds a huge nugget. Bounty hunter Red Bill takes down his target. Arthur McCoy (Dominic Cooper) is the local Sheriff. Eve runs the local brothel. That's before all the baddies. There are so many baddies. There may be a few too many people in this story but many of them get killed off eventually. The visuals are immense and beautiful. I've never heard of the show's creators. They seem to be Italians who love their spaghetti westerns and they have served up the spaghetti and the sauce. This should be a limited series although I read that they're planning for more. Maybe they're shooting for their own version of the Dollars Trilogy.
