A simple and charming western. Cinematography is what really stood out. Very Wes Anderson-esque
I really enjoyed this, a great build up to one hell of an ending
An odd western that certainly takes its time like the title suggests. But when it gets to the climactic showdown, it definitely delivers.
Gradually paced, as any skilled, beautifully shot, idiosyncratic, revisionist western should be. Much that can be missed, apparently
Emphasis on slow but never boring. Butterfield is very likable and innocent where as Fassbender is perfect in his role. Heartbreaking ending
I adore classic westerns and this is a great modern take. The cinematography is beautiful accompanied with great acting and a good story ❤️
Lives up to its title by being quite slow, but it’s punctuated with bouts of violence and has solid acting to get you through it
The title is accurate as it’s quite slow, but excellent performances and interesting plot that combine for a satisfying climax. Enjoyable
A thoroughly enjoyable trek viewed in a series of vignettes. Moments of levity & an economy of language really work here.
I love the slow-paced dramatic movies and the characters changes slowly if you loved the power of the dog you will love that
