With the iconic duo of Ford and Helen Mirren (reunited after starring in “The Mosquito Coast” back in 1986) heading an impressive cast, cinematic-quality visuals, sprawling set pieces and a myriad of promising storylines, the pilot episode of “1923” holds the promise of yet another addictively compelling project from Sheridan.
Just take it on its own merits and it’s a classy product. ... Ford and Mirren have a comfortable chemistry as husband and wife.

Taylor Sheridan delivers again, picking a monumental period in history. This entire season is set in an amazing era when the ancient world fell away and the roller coaster ride toward modernity began. We can see the seeds of the world today being sown, and of course, the writers take pains to inject wisdom and warnings about the state of affairs today, especially freedom of thought, speech and the pursuit of happiness. The Dutton family is aptly tough as nails, a clear carry over from the struggles of 1883 and carry forward to the ongoing saga of Yellowstone. Salute to Taylor’s courage to explore the painful history of North America after the physical genocide of natives, namely their cultural genocide through church schools, associated humiliation, and many unmarked graves. This issue has barely been addressed in popular media. More historical wrongs are unearthed every year, so this issue needs to be highlighted and reconciled. The Kenya storyline is sweeping and romantic, taking me back to the glory of Out of Africa. Having spent my childhood there, I was enamoured by the accuracy and authenticity of the storyline. The great pains taken to reproduce Africa of the period were truly impressive. The romance between Spencer and Alexandra is for ages and makes one feel alive, and immersed in destiny. The calibre of the acting is just top class, especially from Ford, Mirren and Dalton. What gravitas and finesse. It is clear this tale is a multi-season arc of survival and greed, of revenge and ambition. Can’t wait to see it unfold.

One of the best show I even see. Harrison Ford is the man with hat one more time. Hellen Miren is real wild west's woman. Taylor Sheridan's next masterpice !

It’s still unclear from the first episode alone how all of the storylines will inevitably converge, or if all of the storylines even work to begin with, but if executed correctly, Sheridan’s prequel can be a worthy star vehicle for its sprawling ensemble.
Just based on the premiere, 1923 is an ambitious undertaking with a ton of potential that will give fans of Yellowstone a series that at times feels familiar and other times feels like it's expanding what Yellowstone can be.
The premiere achieves the rough emotional outlines of an epic – the feel of sweeping ambitions – without much specificity of feeling, yet. But there are more reasons than not, especially if you root for Ford and Mirren as elder statesmen of the screen, to watch more.
Stream it, if only for the presence of Ford and Mirren, and the fact that we know that Sheridan’s shows get better as they go along. But the first episode of 1923 does not do the presence of its stars justice, has disjointed stories and a glacial pace.
One episode does not a series make, even one of the limited variety. But "1923" tests our faith by presenting subplots running on separate tracks in various places on the planet. ... Ford's stoicism leads the "1923"' mood, a match for the land nature has turned against Montana's cattlemen. But it doesn't make for the most compelling flavor over an hour that struggles to prevent the casual viewer's attention from wandering.
We just finished 1923 Season 1 -- very impressed. The actor who plays Spencer Dutton could be the next Tom Sellick or Gerard Butler -- very commanding presence. Every member of the cast seems right for their role, and the cinematography should earn an Emmy for sure. Africa scenes were amazing, shot in three countries, but so was Bozeman Montana in 1923, and the killing fields of France in 1918. Unlike the stupid superhero movies, they are getting their money's worth on visual effects.

This is pretty bad. The story is convoluted, although it is supposed to be a continuation of 1883 up to Yellowstone (another soap opera). The acting is unbelievable and Han Solo looks really bad trying to act tough. When will this Hollywood trip end? Our view is "don't waste your time."

It's return to the Dutton family again..Like they can't squeeze in another generation. This time 2 of Hollywoods own can do no wrongs play the leads. Well, it's like they put an old boxing ring in town and got dressed by designer Hollywood stylists. Just not very believable. The story line **** guessed it! Bad nuns, good Indians, bad sheep hearders and good Duttons. Yawn... but like said, no matter how diluted, there will nothing but rave reviews for 2 of their own....
