MobLand

Where shall I start, it is very hard for me to start any series that isn't driven by mystery. However, in this series Tom is just a charismatic character that forces you to start this series.

The series stands out because of three main reasons in my opinion. Firstly, the clear direction of the series. To illustrate, you can expect how the final episodes look like once you finish two or three episodes. This is important because some serieses (aka The gentlemen) weren't able to do this. Secondly, every character is important and will contribute to the main story. Thirdly, even thought the series is somehow predictable but it was well presented to keep us interested.

Highly recommend.

MobLand is a fantastic film that completely exceeded my expectations. The story is gripping, the atmosphere intense, and every scene feels raw and real.

Tom Hardy delivers an outstanding performance - cold, calm, and terrifying at the same time. He brings depth to his character in a way few actors can. The pacing is tight, the cinematography is beautiful yet gritty, and the tension builds constantly.

If you enjoy crime thrillers with strong acting and a dark tone, Mob Land is a must-watch.

10/10.

There's way too much of these types of shows now. In an ideal world they would take the best elements of all these and put them together to make a brilliant series.

There's so many holes in the plot and so many unbelievable things happening considering the prestige of the family and their enterprise. If it wasn't for Tom Hardy I may have switched off before the end.

I was stunned to find out the Pierce Brosnan was Irish, that accent is wild. Same as Helen Mirren and her ridiculous character.

Too much of this stuff is designed for the yanks, the Cotswolds isn't around the corner from London.

MobLand delivers exactly what you'd expect from a top-tier crime drama - and perhaps even more. The screenplay is incredibly well-constructed, with sharp editing and a clear, efficient introduction of characters, free from any redundancy. Information is revealed at the right pace, and the use of parallel storylines only enhances the main narrative rather than distracting from it.

Character development is handled to perfection: each figure is explored to the exact extent necessary, with depth and intention. The scenes are well-framed from the beginning, making it easy to dive into the story and follow its progression. The plot unfolds naturally, maintaining suspense and engagement throughout.

There may be a moment or two where one could argue a storyline could've been tied up differently - but in the end, everything is resolved. Any debate lies purely in creative choice, not in oversight. Every thread is ultimately connected.

This is a polished, well-directed, well-written, and well-acted series. A prime example of how to deliver a layered narrative with clarity, rhythm, and emotional impact. A solid 10.

MobLand delivers everything I love about crime dramas-dark family secrets, ruthless rivalries, and a fixer who's more complex than he seems. Tom Hardy is incredible in this role. His quiet intensity carries the entire show, and his scenes are always magnetic. The London setting feels authentic, and the cinematography adds a cinematic flair you don't usually get in TV.

Not every subplot lands, but overall, the writing is strong and keeps you engaged. Guy Ritchie's influence is clear, and it works well here. If you're into crime sagas with a bit of style and soul, this is absolutely worth watching.

Final thought: Can't wait for Season 2.
