MobLand Season 1 Review
‘MobLand’ Has Good Performances and Some Witty Dialogue but Tired Bones. Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan and Paddy Considine anchor the UK-set gangster series that has top talent behind and in front of the camera, yet struggles. Arriving on Paramount+ on March 30th with its first episode, ‘MobLand’ is a new limited series set within the spiky world of intergenerational gangster empires in London.
Birthed by prolific filmmaker (and no stranger to British screen criminals) Guy Ritchie alongside Ronan Bennett, the creator of Netflix hit ‘Top Boy’, it’s the latest in a long legacy of violent, talky meditations on family within the gangland dynamic, and bolstered by a starry cast.
