Wind River

A western with snow-mobiles instead of horses. The trope of the big city lawman (woman) teaming up with the local gunslinger gets effectively spun by the maestro of gritty, Tyler Sheridan. The snowy, cold place is ominous but the reason why the baddies are bad is a little foggy. “Scarlet Witch” and “Hawkeye” are both in top form here; minimalist and suppressed by the bitter cold and the mean rednecks. Tightly-paced and always engaging even if the villainy is vague.
