It's a beautiful western with rising sexual tensions, but it also feels a little empty, and that was a real cheap ending. Ruined a otherwise intriguing profile of cowboy, no matter how hard it was to take Benedict Cumberbatch as one.

S P O I L E R S Slow burn modern western where the tension rises from start to finish. Really loved the costumes, score, and setting. I had so many doubts about Cumberbatch in this but he was outstanding. He plays the guy who the world is passing by so well and with a western drawl nonetheless. Thought we were headed back to Brokeback County and then suddenly he’s dead. And the beauty of that rope and the cunning killer kid was so gorgeous… A-

What stops me short of loving this film are issues with the final act that are difficult to go into without spoiling the plot. I'll say ... I have minor issues with the logistics of the film's climax, and major problems with how the film handles subtle shifts in the relations between the characters. In particular, characters who were clear aggressors turn out to be more complicated, but I don't think the film shifts at all in tone, seeming to pretend that nothing changed.

Not bad and not ugly but like most Netflix movies it lacks the visual flairs needed to really make the movies work. I don’t agree with Elliott when he talks about social stuff in westerns but I do agree when he says New Zealand ain’t the old west of America

Serial killer origin story? The Dog throws off some serious There Will be Blood vibes, with its cinematography, score, and setting. And it is striving for that type of greatness, but it never reaches it. I appreciate the mystery of it all, the tight plot, the subtext, and the performances. The pace is just too slow, there's a lack of memorable scenes, and the uncomfortableness didn't tickle me the way it could have. It's good, but not great.

I was unimpressed by the first half which doesn’t quite land the setup to the amazing final part. Cumberbatch is great, but he is better in a lot of his other stuff.

The most interesting aspect of this is the generational shift in the final chapter - a reckoning with the death of the wild west, changing attitudes toward masculinity, and the passing of trauma from one generation to the next.

Beautifully shot and builds a believable universe quickly. My score is probably overly harsh, but I just could never get over Cumberbatch's accent. Every single scene he's in just reminded me that I'm watching a movie - which kind of ruins the experience.

A classic 'triumph of the nerds', if the 'jock' was a closeted 1920's cowboy (who studied classics for some reason). Not quite as menacing as J.K. Simmons in Whiplash, but getting there. There are some fairly good thematic explorations of masculinity, but not worth the Oscar hype.

A more interesting film than a successful one; much like THE PIANO, the characters behave in ways more convenient to the plotting and messaging, than convincing characterisation; paradoxically Dunst and Cumberbatch give the best performances, but their characters behave in ways that defy logic or reason, especially robbed as we are of any expository information about their pasts. Stunningly filmed, with New Zealand making a fair (if unconvincing) stand-in for the “American” west.

Boring, Brokeback Mountain with A-Levels with insufficient character development for me to care about any of it, and then it just sort of ends out of nowhere. Excellent cinematography though.

A very awards season film. It's not bad by any means but...The plot unrolls itself, rather than progressing, which is fine if you like a slower narrative. There's good acting, without the more showy ACCCTTTIIINNNGGG you get in similar films. Ultimately the ingredients are better than the cake, so it can't help but be disappointing.

Overall direction, score, acting - all great. But I struggle praising a film when I’m at a loss with what it’s really trying to say. It flirts with machismo dogma (…) but if I’m even close to the answer of the Rorschach’s Test presented here as I think I am, it sets LGBTQ+ representation back an additional 20 years from where the Sex and the City reboot landed. It’s all the worse because it’s wrapped in this prestige film bow that conditions otherwise smart viewers into thinking dogshit is good.
