Bob L @RT76975801 May 13 Netflix has denied 2nd seasons to far better, more interesting shows. Giancarlo Esposito reprises his brand as pompous person of color, saving himself the trouble of ever having to develop a new character See more P M @Mind-pool Mar 13 It’s watchable, but the whole thing is just so unbelievable. The actors trying to come across as hardened gangsters are about as convincing as kids in a school play pretending to be mob bosses. The show constantly asks you to believe situations and characters that never quite feel real, which makes it hard to take seriously. That said, if you’re happy to switch your brain off and just have some easy, non-serious TV on in the background, it does the job. Just don’t expect anything particularly believable or grounded.

Ok, so its not like Guy Richie has swayed beyond his usual genre, and the formula is definitely there. Nevertheless, The Gentlemen series is a brilliantly twisted cocktail of class, crime, and dark comedy — imagine if Downton Abbey and Lock, Stock had a dangerously funny love child. The show is both sharp and stylish, yet unafraid to dive into the grimy underbelly of British criminal enterprise. Nothing is off-limits: aristocrats sniffing cocaine at dinner, impeccably dressed gangsters plotting mayhem, and rough-around-the-edges Liverpool barons navigating a world of money, menace, and manners. The writing is razor-sharp, balancing wit, tension, and absurdity with effortless precision. Every character feels alive, every scheme pulses with danger, and the blend of sophistication and savagery keeps viewers constantly engaged. From the very first episode, you’ll be hooked — seduced by the style, entertained by the chaos, and laughing at how outrageously clever it all is. It’s classy, it’s grim, it’s hilarious — a modern gangster saga that proves nothing in crime drama has to be boring. See more Denise T @Dee1925 Oct 19 It’s slick, for sure. Nicely shot. It’s clever and harsh but ultimately mush inside. No real meat. It’s like barbed wire pablum. Halfway through the second episode, I thought to myself did guy ritchie grow up rich? Because he seems to fetishize those from poor classes. It feels like phony, cockney, stooge material. I don’t know. Something about Guy Ritchie movies— they feel like they were made by a spoiled frat boy who never grew up. See more Francis S @Francis101 Oct 16 Michael Vu as Jimmy is a gem. It's a good show, will directed, well made although the director's aestethics often takes over a well told story. See more Read all reviews
