A Review By: Kevin Lovell

Disc Rating: 9/10

 

Synopsis:

When it premiered in 2011, HELL ON WHEELS was credited for helping to modernize the Western genre.  “Imbued with epic sweep[1]”, the series tells the story of post-Civil War America and of Cullen Bohannon (Anson Mount), a soldier who sets out to exact revenge on the Union soldiers who have killed his wife.  When his journey takes him west to Hell on Wheels, a lawless melting pot of a town that travels with and services the construction of the railroad, the lavishly-produced series gathers steam, and introduced characters and plotlines that have helped the Western drama become one of AMC’s top-rated series — and underscores just how  uncivilized the business of civilization can be.
