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.

Yellowstone has easily become one of my favorite shows since it originally came on. Every season has been fantastic. It sucks Kevin Costner couldn't finish the series and had to miss the last 6 episodes because of conflicting schedules. I still think they do as good as job as possible without him, I'm sure the ending would've been better with him but it was still worth watching. They now plan on doing a spin-off with Rip and Beth. I'm definitely looking forward to that. I hope the rest of the Dutton family makes some appearances. This series had plenty of action and drama to keep everyone satisfied. The cast is just about perfect as can be as they all give incredible performances. The cinematography is also as good as it gets on tv and shows just how beautiful Montana is. I was completely hooked on this show and was one of the few shows I still watched live because I loved it that much.
Kelly Reilly owns every scene she is in. She must have really enjoyed playing this part because she just dominates. Everyone. Watching her with Kevin Costner & you can see he loves acting with her. The best part IMHO is they have not made Kelly Reilly's character a girl boss who beats up 300lb giants that you see with the MCU.
The character uses her brains to outsmart every men or women opponent.
I am enjoying the series which is Kevin Costner's tribute to modern day cowboys & their keeping hold of traditional values against a backdrop of city developers who just want to make a load of money.

Let me say one thing: if you had come to me a decade ago and said that Kevin Costner's flagging career would be revived thanks to his role in a modern day western, I would probably have laughed and called you crazy.
Yet it happened. Costner's John Dutton will surely go down in the annals of TV history as one of the best characters ever.
Costner played Dutton perfectly: a doting father, a ruthless ranch owner and a man who is no stranger to violence. Unforgettable.
With "Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan has done something quite difficult: he made us care immensely about a bunch of characters of dubious moral standing.
For example, Kelly Reilly's Beth Dutton was, for the most part, a horrible person, yet you cared about what happened for her, cheered on her successes and commiserated her failures, even when said successes might have been on the wrong side of what's right.
That's because Reilly is a brilliant actress, and because she was given top-notch material to work with.
Cole Hauser, Luke Grimes, Kelsey Asbille, Wes Bentley...all brilliant.
Sheridan is a genius.
What a show. We won't see it's like again, that's for sure.

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..).
