Billy Bob Thornton Shines in Taylor Sheridan's Oil-Driven Drama 'Landman'
TL;DR Summary
Taylor Sheridan's new Paramount+ series "Landman" is a West Texas-set drama featuring Billy Bob Thornton as a corporate fixer in the oil industry. Despite its star-studded cast, including Jon Hamm and Demi Moore, the show is criticized for its lack of character depth and over-reliance on melodrama. Thornton's performance is a highlight, bringing life to Sheridan's dialogue, but the series overall is seen as a typical Sheridan production, catering to fans of his testosterone-driven storytelling.
