Pictures from 'Hatfields and McCoys' and Blu-ray review by Brandon DuHamel. Excerpt: "I don’t claim to be a historian, so I can’t say exactly how accurate this series is about the actual events that took place between the Hatfields and McCoys, but as far as being an interesting series to watch goes, this is, in fact, the real McCoy, if you’ll pardon the pun. The casting is exceptional, from Costner and Paxton through Berenger and right on down to Jena Malone as McCoy cousin Sally. Recommended."

Excerpt from review by James Rocchi: "'Hatfields & McCoys' is a big and brawny miniseries that plays with the sweep, scope and scale of a feature film...... There are some extras, but the best thing on 'Hatfields & McCoys' is seeing two great actors give everything they've got to one majestic tale."

Excerpt from review by Toni Guagenti: "In high-definition, the killing is a bit overwhelming; there is a lot of it in this unedited version. Still, the cinematography and clarity of picture are exquisite; we almost feel as if we’ve stepped into the mid-to-late 1800s. Paxton’s beard, his clothes and demeanor are incredibly realistic; Costner’s acting and his look are also captivating. The dank circumstances of the era are well-portrayed, while the acting is flawless."

Excerpt from review by Mike Spring: "This Kevin Costner-Bill Paxton starring miniseries started off with some good buzz and ended up becoming one of the highest rated programs in cable history. Not bad for a show about a feud that most people actually know very little about. Costner is never better than he is in westerns, and here he re-teams with his Robin Hood and Waterworld director Kevin Reynolds, for a show that’s worth checking out.
