About

You’ll likely enjoy Hostiles if you want a serious, slow Western with strong performances and an emotional journey through dangerous territory, but Not for you if you want a light popcorn ride like The Hateful Eight or The Revenant.

Pros: outstanding lead performances; stunning rugged landscapes; emotionally driven journey | Cons: slow pacing for some; heavy brutality; subtitles/clarity issues
