	A mild look at the wild West - The Boston Globe - Boston.com - TV - A&E
		The miniseries is lousy with breadth, and woefully lacking in character shadings and distinctive dialogue.
		As the ''Into the West" narrative toggles between the generic Wheeler brothers traveling West to settle and the Lakota tribe predictably staving off assimilation, it's a flat canvas painted with too many broad strokes.
		Everything Jacob (Matthew Settle) does in the miniseries is a lesson for us in rectitude, as he turns up his nose at liquor and women, for instance, or refuses to rat on a runaway slave.

	Miniseries worth the time
		The film's reach wildly exceeds what it is able to grab hold of, and its leading characters tend to be one-dimensional repositories of national virtues rather than believable human beings.
		Into the West consistently goes for that deeper psychic connection with the audience and achieves it often enough to promise one of the more elevated viewing experiences of the summer.
		But those who make the commitment and give Into the West a chance to make its case are in for a grand, mythic ride.

		Their time was the '70s and '80s with mega-productions such as “Rich Man, Poor Man,” “Holocaust,” “Centennial,” “Shogun,” “Lonesome Dove” and of course “Roots.” The miniseries allows for stories of depth and complexity not possible within the confines of the traditional half-hour or hour-long TV series.
		Many miniseries are based on best-selling novels, and the novelist’s name is often attached to the project as a selling point (“Stephen King’s ‘The Langoliers,’” “Armistead Maupin’s ‘Tales of the City’”).
		Miniseries are usually part of a network’s strategy for the television season.

		There are, you see, two sets of protagonists: a Virginia-born family moving west and a Lakota tribe coping with the influx of white settlers.
		Before the miniseries has ended, the Wheelers and the Lakota have been touched by the California Gold Rush, the Civil War, the building of the Transcontinental Railroad, the massacre at Wounded Knee, and other historical events leading up to the dawn of the 20th century.
		But Into the West has much to recommend it, not the least of which are feature-quality production values and uniformly fine acting.

		Into the West boasts an enthralling story, a cavalcade of stellar performances, captivating cinematography and ambitious directing by a half dozen well-credentialed veterans, each of whom helms an episode.
		Into the West never rises to the level of story; it's a series of vignettes strung together with extraneous, clunky voiceover, the above example of which is not the most egregious by far.
		"Into The West" is deeply respectful of the Indian experience -- the characters speak in indigenous languages, which are translated in subtitles -- but the tribute to the Lakota turns out to be mostly stifling.

	Into The West: Parts 5 & 6: TNT And DreamWorks Television Original Miniseries Review
		Spielberg has proven with his previous miniseries events like “Band Of Brothers” for HBO and “Taken” for SCI FI, he and those he works with can create a miniseries for television that are as close to the classics of the 1970s and early 1980s as one is likely to find.
		I mean Hallmark has also done a great job with resurrecting the miniseries for television, but the majority of their programs last about three days max and few are as epic as Spielberg’s.
		My only problem with “Into The West” as a whole is that the final resolution seems too polished and almost watered down.

	Into The West: TNT & DreamWorks Television Miniseries Review
		Whether it is the HBO miniseries “Band Of Brothers” or the SCI FI Channel miniseries “Taken,” Steven Spielberg has brought back an epic quality to television storytelling that I would argue has not really been seen since the 1970s and early 1980s.
		With “Into The West” Spielberg attempts to tell on a grand scale the story of two cultures clashing as one form of life gives away to another in the nineteenth century.
		The third episode appears to set up the concluding half of “Into The West” as if they were two volumes of a larger text.

	Into the West (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Star-studded, commendably ambitious and blessed with the kind of epic scale almost never seen on television anymore, the six-part, 12-hour TNT miniseries "Into the West" is a project quite obviously dear to executive producer Steven Spielberg's heart.
		While "Into the West" doesn't quite represent the home run DreamWorks TV was counting on, it does whack a clean double into the gap (to continue with the baseball analogy).
		The miniseries -- rolled out in two-hour chapters during the next six weekends, premiering each Friday and encoring Saturday and Sunday -- is laden with violence rather than edge and trumped-up symbolism at the expense of any deeper meaning.
