Hidden gem alert – why doesn’t anyone talk about this? A miniseries done well, a miniseries that illustrates why I love miniseries’ so much. There’s a couple storyline’s going on but the way they all come together is masterful. Emily Blunt is beautiful and charming as always, but stealing the show is absolutely Chaske Spencer – what a powerful POWERFUL performance. Also a big shout out to Rafe Spall – you did brilliantly at making me hate you. Applauding 👏 👏

Can’t shake the feeling of this show. It is so bittersweet, so deeply melancholy, I felt quite bereft at the end. A clear eyed and unfettered depiction of the racism and brutality of America’s founding. Every ep is breathtakingly shot, a sheer visual feast. The chemistry built between Emily & Chaske was something else. Emily has never put a foot wrong in her entire damn life, so her brilliance here is expected but Chaske was astounding. Truly one of the more moving performances I’ve seen in a long time. Capturing so much in silence. Only a very steady hand, which Hugo Blick shows himself beyond doubt to have, can tackle such atrocity whilst simultaneously building a relationship of such tenderness. Couple of moments so moving I gasped. Desperate to rewatch. (Ps the Golden Globes wouldn’t know good if it hit them smack in the face. How dare this not get even ONE nomination. The absolute audacity).

Chaske Spencer and Emily Blunt really shine in this weird and talky Western. The series started off quite strong, but episodes 2-4 didn’t grab me as much. I am glad I stuck with it however. The last two episodes are exceptionally powerful and I was unable to end the series with dry eyes. Rafe Spall plays damaged people so well. The moment he comes on screen with his cockney accent, top hat and cane, I knew I was in for a treat. He did not disappoint.

The most enjoyable thing I’ve watched in quite a while. Much stranger and more lurid than it first appears, and full of these odd little character moments that you don’t expect to see in something like this. Funny as well. Chaske Spencer and Emily Blunt are just perfect in this. Blunt in particular absolutely devours this weird, twitchy, tragic character. Beautifully shot, proudly showy in its grading and lens flares, with the kind of BIG SKY photography that you only seem to get from folks who aren’t from the US and thus are still impressed by how fucking huge and flat the place can be is. The sky really is entirely too large here. Seriously go watch this. I loved it.

My favorite thing about this is how sad and distressed Emily Blunt gets every time she commits a murder.

The English traveled back in time to the wild west, unearthed and revealed the ugly origins and presented with still existing many contemporary issues while simultaneously looked ahead to the future. Hugo Blick’s latest, Prime Video’s six parter may stumble across mid-way point but found all of it’s glory and horror again at the end. Chaske Spencer’s Eli Whipp ex-cavalry scout and Pawnee Nation, and Emily Blunt’s titular Lady Cornelia Locke rode through sumptuous looking strange wild west (probably the best performer of the series. Spain is rocking here as America west. You will see so many stunning wide shots of vast open great plain with setting sun in background) full of mythic characters and personalities all of who communicated…

First up, The English looks absolutely stunning. Hugo Blick’s decision to shoot it in Spain gives it an unmistakable Spaghetti Western flavour which, when combined with the title sequence and the rogue’s gallery of blackhearted villains and ruthless bushwhackers that Emily Blunt’s driven aristo and Chaske Spencer’s heroic scout face down, is an undeniable hit with me. But overall, this is a production too uneven to impress. When it’s good it’s very good, but when it’s bad it’s a sluggish chore. I also appreciated it more when it stuck to the Spaghetti model, rather than the romantic Dances with Wolves (complete with stirring Barryesque score) story between Blunt and Spencer, whose connection I wasn’t quite buying. Still, the overall approach…

“Home is here. With you.” I haven’t cried this hard since I read TJ Klune’s Under the Whispering Door back in summer 2021. I just — I know there’s no such thing as happy endings in this terrain, and I know it was never going to be possible after learning the extent of Cornelia’s brutalization, but God, I wanted Cornelia and Eli to have a happy ending. I wanted them to find land and build a home together and have children. I wanted them to have a happy ending! The last fifteen-twenty minutes just devastated me. Watching Eli and Cornelia being forced to separate, knowing Cornelia spent the rest of her life alone – I hate it! I wanted them…

This is one of the best series of the year. This blood-soaked tale of revenge is rich with tremendous dialogue, captivating performances, and gorgeous visual storytelling, capturing the harsh grit and beautiful natural landscape each shot paints. Emily Blunt and Chaske Spencer are both powerhouses together on screen. Their perfect chemistry helps enrich the connection you feel with their characters. Hugo Bilck understood and brought justice to the Western genre. six episodes of truly brilliant television. An emotionally charged finale brings a blissfully bittersweet conclusion to this exquisite tale.

I have always sung the praises of The Honourable Woman, a convulated, le Carré-esque political thriller which focused on … optical fiber cables. In my opinion, better plot device than the 5000th doomsday software that can start a nuclear war … remotely! Anywho, when I found out that the maker of that show was tackling a revisionist revenge Western, with Emily Blunt, I was all on board. But whatever I expected, it was not this show. The show has a lot of typical Western tropes (“cowboys and Indians”, the unruly Wild West, the new towns being created from new money like oil), but there is a certain quality, and it is hard to put it into words, that makes this…

Watched for Emily Blunt. Definitely worthed it in this way. She gave an dramatically layered performance. My expactation was Revenge Angel mode. But not badass and cool as in Edge of Tomorrow. The cinematography was a delight, every frame was literally a painting! The story decisions are too safe and classic and it gave me no connection to the characters and their backstories. The revenge theme is so bizarre made. In the first four episodes, I didn’t understand exactly why and whom Emily Blunt wanted to take revenge on. The story hides this from you so nothing until episode 4 made me feel anything. The revenge in the final and the whole journey were dramatic but unsatisfying. But it has…

This series really has me in two kinds, the performances and the script were brilliant, perfectly poignant. However, until half way through the series the plot didn’t make total sense ( even thought it was over 100 minutes of television already) and I was left confused even close to the end. Still this was a very enjoyable, well executed series

the last episode…oh i am hurting. it’s such a bittersweet ending and it was so so beautiful. idk if im going through something rn but it’s been 30 minutes and when i think about cornelia and eli i start crying. i enjoyed the story – it didn’t turn out to be what i expected and finding out what happened to cornelia’s son really stuck to me. it was also so visually stunning – gorgeous gorgeous cinematography and i loved the saturation. i’m so glad i picked this show up but im also so shocked it wasn’t more widely recognised during awards season.

i truly don’t think i have been more starstruck by a tv show then i have by this one. everyone and i mean everyone’s performance was just absolutely amazing. i started to find this show a bit boring but the second i reached the 4th episode, everything started falling into place. i don’t think anyone hates david melmont more than me and ugh i just hated to see cornelia feel that way. black eyed mog freaked me out so badly…

Beautiful. Horrific. An epic. A tragedy. Every scene had these mythic moments that were often simple, yet epic all the same. With incredible framing that looked straight out of a painting. The writing is powerful. Some scenes had 7 minute long dialogues, and I was never bored. Each word had purpose making a simple conversation make me hold my breath. Emily Blunt is incredible, paired with Chaske Spencer’s great, stoic performance that speaks volumes. Some of his lines are only…

As I am making my way through the entirety of Emily Blunt’s filmography, I am sorely disappointed that I have not watched this sooner! I remember reading about it when it came out; I should’ve watched it then. Emily is, as usual, an absolute powerhouse. Cornelia is such a complicated, fidgety mess of a character, and Emily rises to the task, delivering one of her career best performances. Her chemistry with Chaske, who is also phenomenal, is off the charts.…

I’m honestly blown away by how good this is, I really didn’t expect it to be THAT good. How is no one talking about this ?! I love the themes it touches on. It’s such a beautiful, moving story (literally never cried so hard). Emily Blunt, the actress that you are

Emily Blunt could shoot me with a gun or a bow and arrow in that red dress and I’d say thank you. Now that the obligatory letterboxd thirst comment is out of the way, I can say that I genuinely enjoyed this limited series and was impressed not simply by how well made it was, but how nuanced it was also. I only know of this series cause I was going through Blunt’s filmography, and was surprised that this even…

breathtaking story, I did not expect it to take this turn at all, the last episode broke my heart, the cinematography is amazing and the casting is pure perfection! my beloved emily blunt, you never fail to make me impressed with your talent, and chase was just as incredible!! my only problem was with how many times we had to see unnecessary scenes with the other characters, it was not only boring but most of them didn’t feel so relevant to the story. but still, this is reaaaally good!!

I’m honestly at a loss for words with this show. For a show that’s so beautiful and colourful it contrasts with the brutality and melancholy so well. Oh how this piece of art really showcases how brutal and depressing the wild west era was. Eli and Cornelia have such tender and intense chemistry. I spent the last 15 minutes sobbing. It’s heartbreaking, raw, but bitter sweet. Short or long, we ain’t here but for a moment. You nor me. None…

This is one of the most beautiful westerns I’ve seen in a long time. Every frame looks like a painting, and the cinematography alone is enough to make it worth watching. But beneath all that beauty is a surprisingly emotional story about revenge, grief, and redemption. Emily Blunt is outstanding. She brings so much quiet strength to her character, and her chemistry with Chaske Spencer is what makes the series truly memorable. Their journey feels heartfelt without ever becoming overly…

The series understands that there are losses that no form of justice can ever repair. That there are absences so profound that not even the punishment of the person responsible can return what was taken from us. And yet, the most painful question remains: what does one do with a love that has survived its own destiny? A man who took her life from her in every possible way: first, by stealing the version of herself that existed before the…

Enjoyed that this both confronted the western as a genre while also embracing it. It’s a very brutal and raw miniseries; pretty interesting how syphilis became the connecting device between all the characters? This is probably peak Emily Blunt. She’s badass but also really warm and charming. Chaske Spencer as Eli… legitimately phenomenal. And! Rafe Spall! Initially unrecognisable but a thrilling and disgusting character, a man emboldened by the freedom the frontier gave him in all the worst ways.

That photograph scene in the last episode was just too good and haunting oh my god. Emily Blunt and Chaske Spencer are so good and the plot is so devastating and the cinematography is so gorgeous!!! I actually started watching this like 3 years ago when Emily Blunt got a SAG nomination for her performance in this, but then I never got a chance to finish it. I remembered this existed after I watched Disclosure Day and wow I can’t believe I never finished this show the first time around.

«You didn’t blink.» «At a mothers love?» Oh my dette må være det beste visuelt jeg har sett. Det er nydelige shots, med natur, farger og stemning. Interresant / unik dialog, og en spennende historie.

This mini-series can’t be accused of a lack of style… so much so that in fact I was immediately turned off by it and settled in for some cheese.

That said, the rest of the pilot episode kicks into high gear with a series of…

What sets The English apart from a typical Western is not just its unconventional leads—a posh Englishwoman and a displaced ex-US-military Pawnee scout—but its sheer depth and complexity, tackling themes like identity, loss, and justice with nuance far beyond the expectations of its genre. It’s a masterclass in character-based plot and proof that it too can be intricate. Blink and you’ll miss the reveal and half the plot. It demands a second watch to fully appreciate the puzzle of details…

I watched this over two days, and liked much of it. The first thing to note is that it’s a sensational looking series. Costumes, locations, every shot was a picture; even the titles look terrific. Maybe too many silhouette or noticable lens flare shots, but that might just be personal taste. The plot, at times, was unnecessarily knotty, potentially a symptom of having to fill five hours of a series rather than two for a film. Expanding into side stories…

The stupid contrived “Jack died cuz he couldn’t fit on the door”-esque ending pisses me off. But other than that, this was 10/10, a deep and nuanced reimagining of what a Western can be.

Uma revisão do faroeste (e da construção dos EUA) sob uma perspectiva feminina e indígena, “The English” é de uma beleza triste e cruel que às vezes parece quase poesia. Usando o tempo necessário para contar sua história (mas sem negar fogo nas cenas de ação) e com planos abertos que enchem os olhos, a minissérie só peca por algumas tramas paralelas que pouco contribuem para a narrativa. Chake Spencer e Emily Blunt (provavelmente na melhor atuação de sua carreira)…

“A Inglesa” se destaca como um faroeste dramático elegante e melancólico, que transforma uma história de vingança em uma jornada emocional profunda. A narrativa acompanha uma aristocrata movida pela dor, cruzando um território hostil ao lado de um ex-soldado indígena, criando uma dupla improvável e carregada de significado. Visualmente deslumbrante, a série aposta em paisagens amplas e silenciosas para reforçar o isolamento e a brutalidade daquele mundo, enquanto o ritmo mais contemplativo pode afastar quem busca ação constante. Ainda assim,…

Para além de tudo bem feito e bem cuidado nesta minissérie, eu espero que a pessoa que descobriu a química entre Emily Blunt e Chaske Spencer tenha ganhado (e continue) ganahando muito dinheiro por causa disso.

DNF, bailed in the 2nd episode. The first episode started out relatively strong, though it was self-consciously referential. Every damn scene and take was a nod to something or other. Then the talky tedious scenes started, and my mind wandered, and by episode 2 I was just bored out of my mind. (I also dislike Emily Blunt and think just about any other actress would be better here, but nevermind that.) Also disappointed that Gary Farmer appeared in episode 2 but they did absolutely nothing with him.

I watched this when it first came out because somehow watching westerns reminds me of my very happy childhood because my mother was a huge lover of traditional American westerns . So on a whim, I watched this when it first came out and I was absolutely blown away. It’s an absolutely wonderful story focusing on the amazing character played by Emily Blunt an actress who I had previously thought was a bit meh but in this I thought she…

Music, cinematography and Emily Blunt’s performance are all outstanding. The screenplay is weak, with the second part of the series falling apart. It’s also such a sad story…

Serien åpnet med en lang monolog, som fremsto svært skrevet. Jaja, vi kommer vel snart inn i noe ordentlig. De første par episodene var jeg nysgjerrig på hvor serien skulle ta oss hen. Etter hver gikk det over til en “får vel fullføre”-følelse.

Epic in its breadth and scope, and utterly intimate in its emotional storytelling. A beautifully shot story of violent retribution and desperate atonement.

Cornelia Locke: “What about my things?” Eli Whipp: “Take what you need.” Cornelia Locke: “I need everything.” Eli Whipp: “Difference between what you need and what you want is what you can put on a horse…” The sweeping Hugo Blick western series, THE ENGLISH – I had a binge. A few thoughts… Four episodes in one evening and yes, I was hooked. It’s very eclectic, but then that comes with the territory; Federico Jusid’s score alone referenced Lennie Niehaus’s work…

A fine show with a mostly sturdy emotional core and a handful of questionable choices. The shootout scenes are the worst ones I’ve seen in a big budget production. Muzzleflashes look like they were made for a Youtube video. Especially surprising since overall it’s shot very well and looks pretty. But it takes you out of the atmospheric experience when you know a tense situation will end up with actors looking like kids holding toy guns and effects that look only slightly better than something drawn in Paint in 60 seconds.

An amazing western miniseries and the best portrayal of Christ-like love I have ever seen on film.

the english is slow, confusing, and absolutely stunning. i was lost more than once (thank god i watched it with my dad), but the atmosphere and sets are breathtaking. loved all the badass women, and the chemistry between emily blunt and eli carried a lot of the emotional weight. not always easy to follow, not always gripping — but memorable and beautifully made.

Very well done Western mini series. That has some outstanding cinematography and performances. Emily Blunt and Chaske Spencer play off each other really well while Stephen Rea steals every single scene he is in. Get this guy in more projects stat.

Gledao samo zbog Emili Blant. I isplatilo se jer ne samo da sam uzivao u njenoj glumi, nego je serija brutalna, svaki kadar, svaka epizoda nosi odredjenu tezinu i napetost. Scenario je pisan na nivou svetskih blokbastera.

Watch this entire Amazon Original 6-episode mini-series in one screening for the extraordinary experience. Intense, emotional and exhilarating narrative introduces us to several intense scenarios and archetypes of the American Western Frontier. While some aspects are purposefully allegorical and not rigorously historically accurate – the cast and story manage to weave a compelling story against the blood stained tapestry of American History. The historical backdrop is tragic but the magnificent cinematography provides ominous and beautiful juxtaposition to a mythic fable of perseverance in spite of imminent overwhelming danger.
