Tristen W @RT29728116 Sep 1, 2026 I like this movie a whole lot, I really like the cinematography and the split up stories. I will say there was one or two stories that I didn’t really like, but that’s also because I was coming into the movie expecting something else, overall pretty good movie. See more Ryan D @ryandizz Aug 18, 2026 Great dialogue and great cinematography. I wish the stories had more of a connection to each other and I feel that the Buster Skruggs segment should've been longer. His story was definitely the standout in the film See more Josh G @Parsifal83 Jul 31, 2026 An inventive collection of Western fables that ranges from haunting to hilarious. Not every story lands equally well, and the Coens are occasionally a little too pleased with their own irony, keeping the material from cutting as deeply as it might. Consistently thought-provoking, even if it remains more clever than emotionally affecting. See more Jay W @RT52162311 Jul 18, 2026 The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is a Western movie that consists of 6 shorts. The ranking of them would go: 1. "Buster Scruggs", it's the first one, the title for a reason. A good sense of humor and the fastest pace and best energy of the group. 2. "All Gold Canyon", the most likable protagonist of the whole thing. 3. "The Mortal Remains", my favorite anthology films, have a horror edge to them, and this one fit that mold well. 4. "Near Algodones", keeps up the energy and humor from the first short. 5. "The Gal Who Got Rattled", an exciting conclusion, but serious pacing problems. 6. "Meal Ticket", overly dark, unnecessarily long and definitely the worst one.

The guns and violence are okay but the 3rd skit's horrific ended had me turn the TV off. would never recommend it SUCKS! See more Jerry F @NibbleNuts May 12, 2026 Disturbing., I love The Coen brothers. There's odd - there's horror and then well there's nihilism. Somehow throwing the legless, armless man off the bridge, well - I know folks who would do that. Seems to me that just stokes their fire. So... guys - no go from this dude. And actually I HAVE a sense of humor. But this is a "bridge too far". Now if you want to do that with some politicians - sure - rock and roll. But the average guy, trying to survive. Beware. your target. The bank robber, I get that. The summary execution squad, OK go get'm. But not the kid ... it's just a little too real life and well like 2026 for me. Peace and love guys. Try something a bit less real, what about an M80 up your butt, that would be reality of a kinder kind. See more Read all reviews
