Modern 2016-2020 Westerns worth watching

[88man]

What is currently out there worth watching? We watched the Ballad of lefty Brown last night

Longmire is pretty good.

 

[FamilyMan]

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

The Hateful Eight

These are at two different ends of the spectrum, but I enjoyed them both.

I watched Hostiles recently and enjoyed it. It has little more nuance than the golden age of Hollywood westerns.

The Mandalorian is really just a Western set in the Star Wars universe. Magnificent 7 remake fits in there too.

Hateful 8 (2015) was ok. Felt like a lot of retread stuff from Django that Tarantino wasn't able to use. Jennifer JAson Leigh's performance was the standout in that film for me.

NO

Longmire is pretty good.

+1 on the Longmire. Really enjoyed the series. Especially after driving through that part of WY (Buffalo WY). Beautiful country.

 

[jabber]

Yellowstone and The Son are both decent

I'm skeptical about The Sisters Brothers but will watch...

I thought Godless was a pretty good series. I think that one was Netflix exclusive.

Longmire was filmed in New Mexico. Not a bad show though

Wind River gets pretty western....good flic

 

[JLDemo]

Hell or High Water was good IMO. Not a true Western but has the feel.

Yes, a good one but gets ya worked up pretty fast.

Yellowstone is awful...but Beth ain't.

Though it's based in KY, Justified is a hillbilly western. I like that series as well as Longmire.

Ben- Agreed on the Mandolorian which I just finished last night with my 9yo. Good series.

I've only watched the first 4. So don't ruin it for me. I want to know if Baby Yoda ends up blasting those bad guys or just wanders around looking helpless and lost.

Justified was a great western series. All the classice elements & I like Timothy Oliphant in just about everything I've seen him in.

I liked Longmire after I got over that it was different than the books....and that they couldn't film it in WY. I heard an interview with Craig Johnson where he said it was because of the filming schedule starting in March and well, March in WY is kind of like January

Learn something new every day. Let me rephrase....Love everything out West. Living in Western North Carolina, vast expanses out West pull me that way

I agree it was a brilliant movie, as was Wind River, wasn't Bone Tomahawk a western, kind of, but made in 2015
