Summary
Reviewers say 'Yellowstone' is lauded for its stunning cinematography, strong performances by Kevin Costner and Cole Hauser, and its blend of family drama and Western themes. Key themes include complex family dynamics, power struggles, and tradition versus modernity. Criticisms highlight implausible plotlines, excessive violence, and moral ambiguity. Some note issues with character development and melodrama. Despite these, the series remains captivating for its atmosphere, scenery, and ensemble cast.
Featured reviews
My opinion of this franchise is based on the fact that I viewed 5 seasons in two weeks. I couldn't get enough, but this waiting for the new content has left me not wanting to continue watching.
The character development and storyline in my opinion is ranked in the top 10. Cole Hauser's character. Works very well in the series. I saw him in another movie and it just did not carry the same realism as it does in Yellowstone.
Kelly Riley's character is riveting, but I don't know if it would be as entertaining in a spinoff or other series.
Taylor Sheridan has come out with so many great new series. I re-watched 1883 and it was completely gut wrenching but loved every minute of it.

I'm happy to say that this show and by all means is the best show I've ever seen in my entire life. I've seen lots of shows as I'm addicted to them, but this one touched something in my heart and soul. If you watched 1883 and 1923 the series, Yellowstone would make sense to you and you will fall in love with the story and it's drama. I love stories that has long history like Yellowstone and how it started. The show had a great beginning and greater closure and this is very rare to see nowadays. I need to recommend this show for people and I would love to see something that has the same greatness one day.
We have always liked Herr Costner's Western output,(...I think 'Open Range' with the peerless Robert Duval is one of the Greatest ever...),and this series is one of his best, although, I suppose his Family, with all their various issues, probably have more screen time...no bad thing as they are all, uniformly brilliant with the 'Cherry on Top of the Cake', Kelly Reilly as his mercurial, combative daughter'Beth' chewing up the scenery every time she's centre stage. Everyone else are superb too, though. We have just finished Season 4 and loved it especially all the proper Cowboy 'stuff' with incredible scenes of competition Horse riding, Rodeo riding and the like...Wonderful stuff. Cannot wait to see how the superb series ends. Bravo to All involved...Yee Hah!!!........
.......Was a bit rushed doing this review, last night, so I didn't even get to mention other great characters like the excellent Native American contingent, uniformly dignified and charismatic and the 2nd 'Cherry on the Cake'.... Cole Hausers 'Rip' who my wife tagged straight away...she loves hunky, rugged men hence...er...me,(..Hee hee..).
This is the type of show where cowboy/western life meets big city mafia life. This show is well cast, the first two episodes have been well written and leaves you wanting more after every episode. Not to mention the Montana and Utah scenery is beautiful.
The Dutton's remind me of the Ewing's from the 70's drama "Dallas". In short Yellowstone is "Dallas" meets "Sopranos".

Yellowstone was one of the best shows on tv from when it originally came on in 2018 right up to the ending in 2024. It was the #1 show on cable for all 5 seasons it was on (really it was 6 seasons because they broke season 5 into 2 parts). It's hard to explain just how good this show really is. The acting, writing, directing, cinematography, production, etc, are all incredible. It's exactly what you expect from a Taylor Sheridan show since just about everything he does is terrific. The acting was as good as anything on tv. Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Cole Hauser, Kelly Reilly, Hassie Harrison, Kelsey Asbille, Wes Bentley and the rest of the cast all deserve recognition for the incredible job they do season after season, episode after episode. It's one of the rare shows where almost every season is just as good as the others. I can't recommend this show enough, just go watch it for yourself.
