Television Review - Hell On Wheels S01E02

 HELL ON WHEELS
Season One Episode Two
"Immoral Mathematics"
Directed by David Von Ancken
Starring Ansom Mount, Colm Meaney, Common
2011. 60 mins, [TV-MA]

 
Re: Cullen is suspected of murder while Doc Durrant searches for his missing maps.
 
Outstanding: This is still a very pretty show. The newly intoduced character, The Swede is excellent.
 
Unacceptable: It's a very slow burning show, which may turn some folks off.
 
Summary: But then again, it's a show about the railroad set in the the wild west 1860's, so it may turn a lot of people off, but I like what I'm seeing. Though not a lot happens in this episode action-wise, it does manage to cram a lot of story into its runtime. Looking forward to the next episode.


 
4/5
