Mobland is an entertaining gangster story. That's it. Nothing spectacular and nothing mediocre. With Guy Ritchie involved in the series there is indeed that classic many plots intermingling in the overall story treatment. One thing that stands out in this series is Pierce Brosnan's performance. Definitely not Tom Hardy's. Don't get fooled by the praise showered on Tom Hardy by his fanboys. Any third rate actor can do what Tom Hardy did in this series. He is a talented actor no doubt, but his performance in this series is, I feel, the lowest effort he put in any project. Warning: If you are one of those who couldn't stand Skyler in Breaking Bad, be prepared. Jan Da Souza (played by Joanne Froggatt) is just like that.

"Mobland" is a larger than life but nonetheless watchable, Brit crime drama. This series feels somewhat like a satire, of your British organised crime, figures.Its loud tones, predictable stereotypes and at times implausible plot twists, do tend to rob it, of certain, credibility. Tom Hardy is as brilliant as ever, in the role of the chief family enforcer, fixer, whilst Pierce Brosnan hands in a competent performance, as the family's patriarch. Helen Mirren, who, to be honest, has never much impressed me, fits in well in the role of Brosnan's cunning, criminally deranged, wife. Thus far, there's nothing new on offer here but what is presented, is, for the most part, inherently watchable. Its well paced, with solid narrative, plus creative plots and sub plots. In summary, I like "Mobland". Alright, its not new, yes its overstated but there's still a lot here that's intriguing and engaging enough, to merit a look.
