While Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone has become a television phenomenon, his 2015 film Sicario is argued to be his best work. This article compares Sheridan's writing and directing in Sicario with his more recent television projects, suggesting that the film's quality and impact remain unmatched.

One of Taylor Sheridan 's earliest projects, Sicario , is currently available on Amazon Prime Video, and it's still superior to his work on Yellowstone . The Kevin Costner-led neo-Western kicked off in 2018, and despite a lukewarm reception to the first season, the series quickly became a hit, providing Paramount Network with a contender in the prestige television game.

Until Yellowstone's ending in 2024, Taylor Sheridan's series was consistently one of the most-viewed shows in the world, resulting in multiple spinoff series and other high-budget television projects for Sheridan on Paramount+. Taylor Sheridan has become a prolific success from Yellowstone, with his work essentially carrying Paramount+ on its back, giving it a chance against more prominent services like Netflix and Hulu, which have had far longer to accumulate libraries of original, exclusive content. Sheridan's TV shows include Tulsa King, 1923, and most recently, the Billy Bob Thornton-led oil industry drama, Landman. Though they haven't all been critically acclaimed, they've practically all been popular, with the mega-producer pumping out multiple seasons of television each year. Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone Writing Isn't As Good As Sicario Sicario Is Still Taylor Sheridan's Opus Close Despite all of Sheridan's work on the Yellowstone franchise and his other series being popular, he's yet to have a project that tops Sicario as the crowning jewel of his filmography. The 2015 movie was Taylor Sheridan's entry into screenwriting after struggling as an actor for years on shows like Sons of Anarchy. Sheridan's writing, combined with the esteemed quality of filmmaker Denis Villeneuve (Dune, Blade Runner 2049), made Sicario one of the most compelling, rich action/crime thriller films of the decade, even spawning a sequel that was less well-received. Taylor Sheridan's various shows have their high points and their low points. The disparity in quality between, say, Yellowstone season 3 and Yellowstone season 5 is drastic, even though there are moments of genius in both. Sicario's success could be attributed to Denis Villeneuve's direction, as the 2018 sequel, which didn't involve him, was met with far more mediocre reception. Even though Sheridan proved he wasn't a one-hit-wonder with 2016's Hell or High Water, another great film that earned him an Oscar nomination, it's worth examining why he's yet to live up to Sicario. Taylor Sheridan isn't going to stop pumping these shows out as long as they're still finding success on Paramount+ Billy Bob Thornton's Tommy Norris is an incredibly entertaining character, but it's hard not to note the similarities between his dialogue and John Dutton's. Landman episode 4 even saw Rebecca Falcone directly repeat a zinger line that Beth Dutton said in Yellowstone season 3. Taylor Sheridan isn't going to stop pumping these shows out as long as they're still finding success on Paramount+, which is frustrating given what he's proven capable of when giving the proper time and attention to his projects. The issue of quantity over quality is becoming apparent
