Notorious criminal Frank Griffin and his gang of outlaws are on a mission -- get revenge on Roy Goode, a former protege who betrayed the brotherhood. On the run, Roy seeks refuge in isolated mining town La Belle, N.M., where he lives with Alice Fletcher, a hardened widower and outcast. When word reaches La Belle, which is governed mainly by women, that Griffin is headed there, the residents of the town band together to defend against his murderous gang.

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.

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? Go to Full Review Nick Schager The Daily Beast 05/15/2019
Godless is a work of confident artistry, casting well-worn clichés and archetypes in a fresh, illuminating light. Go to Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 05/15/2019
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. Go to Full Review Cristina Escobar LatinaMedia.Co 06/26/2021
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 Go to Full Review Sarah Musnicky Legion of Leia at Vital Thrills 09/19/2019
I can definitely appreciate Scott Frank and Steven Soderberg tackling this particular untouched (in terms of Hollywood) subject matter. Go to Full Review Alberto Carlos Espinof 08/05/2019
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. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews

James G @Jiminamin Jan 14 I loved it. Rock solid acting throughout. Very sombre in parts but the payoff is the ending which I feel is one of the most satisfying I have watched in years. Highly recommended See more R J Dec 30 •Pointless subplots that tire out into nothingness •Many empty characters who feel like outlines of characters due to lack of depth •Horrible finale •Before realizing the subplots are pointless, the writing won't develop decently or knowing the finale is going to be mid with multiple idiotic character writing flaws - the series will first fool you into enjoying it for a while. See more Matheus F @matheusf_neto Aug 18 One of the best minisseries of the 2010s. O'Connell, Dockery, Daniels and Wever are phenomenal. See more John R Jul 30 Simply wonderful. Up there with Dances with Wolves, Shane, The Good the Bad & the Ugly, Unforgiven and all the classics. See more frandigar V @Frandigar Jul 26 Instant Western Classic masterpiece, stylish, intriguing, violent and beautiful, all at the same time...💯👌 See more Bat M @Batman281 Jul 15 Great cast and story line. Certainly binge worthy. See more Read all reviews
