      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Vistas and violence root Godless firmly in traditional Western territory, but its female-driven ensemble sets it apart in a male-dominated genre.

      Gary B Another dreary existentialist western that, instead of celebrating humanity and hope, celebrates their absence. Depressing. Aptly titled, though. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review Ellie F I really enjoyed this series. The violence was a bit hard to take at times, but the twirling of the guns was a comic relief reminiscent of the old westerns. The plot was fine as a good sauvignon blanc. Not champagne, but the acting was great. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/24 Full Review Gero C I love this serie. Highly recommended Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/24 Full Review Barry M Every new generation finds an infatuation with the wild west, and each time is more dated and irrelevant. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Alain L Grandiose!! D'aussi grande qualité que fût Il était une fois dans l'Ouest! Paysages grandioses, acteurs forts et attachants, la touche rude de l'ouest est fort présente ! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/13/23 Full Review Kleber C Uma minissérie nota 1000, simplesmente excelente, recomendo com toda certeza!

      Soleil Ho Bitch Media If genre cliches are brought into a work to be deconstructed, but said cliches remain stylized and centered, then what's actually being upended in this process? Mar 3, 2021 Full Review Nick Schager The Daily Beast Godless is a work of confident artistry, casting well-worn clichés and archetypes in a fresh, illuminating light. May 15, 2019 Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald As events unfold across seven hours certain storylines might proceed a little languidly for some tastes, but things are anchored by some terrific performances, particularly from Wever and from McNairy. May 15, 2019 Full Review Cristina Escobar LatinaMedia.Co In Godless, we see a black town, literally called Blackdom, and its inhabitants as "others..." Think that's bad? Native American characters do not do better Jun 26, 2021 Full Review Sarah Musnicky Legion of Leia at Vital Thrills I can definitely appreciate Scott Frank and Steven Soderberg tackling this particular untouched (in terms of Hollywood) subject matter. Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Alberto Carlos Espinof It shows, in a bad way, that the original material was designed for a short film format, and you can tell that there was no script to fill the more than seven hours that the miniseries lasts.
