Yellowstone (2018– )
5/10
Unconvincing

Well, I might have liked this more if the actors had been instructed to speak clearly. In some scenes the dialogue simply cannot be deciphered. Even though the actors can be heard to be speaking, they are doing so in such an indistinct manner as to make it pointless. I gave up on this half way through S01E03 when Beth, in the most ridiculously implausible manner, punches her brother in the face and demands that he 'be a man'. That's just one of the many things I hate about modern films: the characters resort to physical violence under the slightest of pretexts which otherwise would lead them to be characterized as psychopaths if that's how they behaved in real life. Yes I know films are not 'real life', however, they should at least have some verisimilitude; which this series most definitely doeso not.
