    This film is unique as a western. In 1820's north western USA, a friendship between a Chinese man & a cook is the focus. The plot moves slowly, but the beautiful cinematography & fascinating details holds your interest. Only criticism is some parts are too dark to see.

    I continue to admire Reichardt's penchant for slow placing and little in the way of plot mechanics. One could easily imagine a more energetic version of this story but I think you'd lose a lot of the interesting little details the film lingers on.

    Very slow. Can pass the time on a lazy day. But doesn't hold the attention.

    Quiet yet utterly captivating, Kelly Reichardt's First Cow utilizes some breathtaking cinematography en route to a period human interest story that feels all too modern.

    Slow burn extraordinaire: take inventory with Cookie, proceed with caution with King Lu & heed the warnings of Chief Factor - This one heats with the grease, and will leave you searching & stomping into the dark wilderness as well.
