I'm unfamiliar with the story behind it but for whatever reason, they made a movie 13 years after the show ended. It takes place 10 years after the last episode of the show.
One thing that makes me laugh is the obvious shift in how TV is now than what it used to be. During flashbacks, the nudity isn't show. Gone are the days with HBO proudly showed nudity. In this age of "modern modesty" shows have now. Where showing a woman nude is frowned upon.
I don't mind that either, I just find it funny one of the most iconic scenes in the entire show, is when a naked woman shoots the main villain is now considered "not right" to show anymore in 2019. In fact, the movie have "after sex" people fully clothes in bed for each scene. I find it hilarious.
The movie has some key deaths, a few closures of character arcs. Some relevant and one pointless. The main villain sort of gets his comeuppance, but its unsure whether or not he got away with his crimes or not.
This is a nice ending, yet not as satisfying as I'd thought they'd try to make it. Maybe there were hopes of another film? At this point, I think we've seen the last of Deadwood. A shame, a few tweaks in the story and this could've been one of the best shows on TV.
In the end, it's just one of the better ones.
