LIONESS
If you’re a true Taylor Sheridan fan, this is another must watch well done series.
“Real life military advisors helped in producing a more authentic execution of gun handling, house clearing and squad-based activity.”
Talk about “on a roll” Sheridan has cornered the market again. I’ve watched everything her’s done and can honestly say I love it all - can do no wrong in my mind.
This guy knows how to bring the heat into testosterone-fueled, macho worlds. The cast was well chosen and executed their rolls with realism, as always.
Story line is well written and specific to women, as he did for the women in Yellowstone, that captures all our attentions (e.g. Beth, Teerter & the barrel riders)!
Now we have Zoe Saldana, doing some of the best work of her career. Not to take anything away from the new comer De Oliveira - a women with a broken past and burning rage that will capture you throughout the series.
All in all the characters are likable and well developed. Great balance of dialog and action with some amazing Sheridan fights and chase scenes.
Realistic? you be the judge. I for one loved it and binged the entire series in 2 days. Enjoy the show. It's great!
