Black Tuesday

I was not dissapointed after the long wait between seasons. Goof... Someone mentioned "The Hollywood Oscars." It's late 1929. Yes the Academy Awards ceremony had already taken place, however, calling the statuette Oscar did not happen until several years after this was supposed to have taken place. Still, great episode.

I've been waiting for this season for awhile. They weren't sitting on their asses were they? Great episode. They picked up right where they left off. I had to laugh at the misguided soul who said that unions were about flexibility and understanding. That's not what unions are for. But, I digress. Great show. One more thing... Whomever is responsible for plugging that Sabbath in deserves a raise. Brilliant. If you don't know what I'm talking about, think of where this based. If you still don't get it turn off the rap.

Well, here we go again for the fifth time. I've been an avid watcher of the Peaky Blinders since day one and while this opener wasn't as good as the others, it still was a very good and strong episode. Has it changed? Yes. Is it understandable that some people don't like the change in cinematography? Absolutely. But compared to all the other shows out there, it's still well above average. The acting and dialogue were good, although a bit wooden at times. The cinematography is different, but also very refreshing. On the downside: Too much time was wasted on finding the best camera angles and shots which left the story behind. Since the very beginning, Peaky Blinders has lived from the strong and fast forward moving plot. The plot was there, but as others have already pointed out, the pace was too slow for a six episode season.

I don't mind the new art style from the new director, as long as the plot stays as strong as it was during the last 4 seasons. Hopefully the next episode will have a better balance between the two.

Nonetheless a very strong episode.

8/10

Enjoyed the episode but it felt way too slow for a six episode season. Camera work with the wide angles, the slow motion moments with the musical presence just felt a bit weird and too over the top. Not the greatest premiere.

I liked the episode but i loved last 15 minutes of it !. Also, great cinematography they worked real hard on it.
