danteberrios-29823 It's an incredibly entertaining take on the underground workings of the mob/mafia. It supplies several characters worth taking interest in and provides a story engaging enough to keep you interested as to how the problems get sorted out. Cillian Murphy is at his best as the gang's leader. You might have to disregard logic for a couple small parts of the plot, but there's nothing that just flat out ruins the storyline
foxtheoutsider Well acted, cinematography is brilliant, but the writing is as formulaic as House. Main characters seem to have divine intervention occur in every situation that would otherwise see them in trouble. Any time you think something bad has happened it just turns out it was all part of the main mastermind's plan after all. Like watching a magician try to pull the same trick on you over and over again, I hope it wraps up soon because it is getting very predictable.On another note, I can appreciate the Citizen Kane nature of the main character, however there doesn't seem to really be any redeemable arc for him. He starts as a scheming antihero that will trade his own family in to gain power and it doesn't ever seem to deviate, which I feel kind of hamstrings any character growth of the other, more relate-able characters.
ljgwynn-19156 I only watched the first two seasons because my partner was hooked from the first trailer. His obsession quickly became mine too. The acting is phenomenal and the writing doesn't dry up or bore. Consistently over the years the storylines have gripped and excited. The direction and cinematography has been phenomenal and the casting - from day one - has been spot on. The actors have grown into their roles well enough that they must be hard pressed to distinguish themselves from their roles by now. Exceptional from top to bottom! Hopefully many more years to come!
freddydominguez-71579 Great! Love every piece of it. By order of the peaky blinders.
