Can’t wait to see this. Looks amazing. Netflix doing some good stuff. Never heard this story from the law perspective

Looks great

Really well made. Loved that the main focus was on the former Texas Rangers and how they tracked Bonnie and Clyde. Also loved the real life photos at the end and in the credits. Definitely going to see the famous car the next time we pass through Primm, NV.

This was really good. I loved this movie and everyone I know who saw it had nothing but good things to say about it.

Great performances by Harrelson and Costner

We’ve never really heard this story of the two old school Texas rangers who tracked em cross country and got them.

Like Brian said the photos at the end made this 10x better

Really cool movie

Yup. Enjoyed it too. Happy to see the other side of this story as Bonnie and Clyde have been too glorified through the years. Would like to a shift in motion pictures back to glorification if good people rather than the anti-heroism that’s become the norm.

I just finished it. It was very well made and very entertaining except for one very, very stupid scene (seriously, dust?).
