I like it a lot!
Yes, it is focused on this russian family but, I don't see it as the usual thing against russians in the movies.
The main character is the son of a big russian boss but they live in london and have ordinary life now... He is discovering his dark side during the show and he begins to like the power. Money drugs, power... I really really like it. Hope there will be a season 2.

After watching 7 episodes, I have to say it is very well done. Gets better with every episode, and I noticed a trend with the bad reviewers, which is most only watched the one episode.
They don't realize most slow shows get better over time...because they build up the climax for the ending.
All I can say is their lost.

This is a great show, illustrating how crime has gone global, just like capitalism. One reviewer didn't like it because some villains were Russian. Did he even watch the show? There are criminals from Israel, India, Pakistan, Mexico and Czech Republic. Just because there are no Americans yet (they may yet show up), doesn't mean it's unfairly portraying Russians as criminals.
Did anyone else notice that this is based on a very good NON-fiction book by Misha Glenny, a reporter who does excellent work? Just because the producers made it into a drama doesn't take anything away from the veracity of the story.

This is an excellent piece of drama if one likes subtle intrigue with a dark sombre looming menace.
I have seen episode 1. The acting is professional, as is the director's lead, but most importantly the story is not only plausible but current. What do the world's real super villains want and need - a banker who will do their work, and this young man has fallen right into it through no fault of his own
So no bang bang shoot 'em up, though a bit of blood and guts. If you liked the "The Game" with Brian Cox and Tom Hughes you will love this.
Thanks.

I don't think I've seen an entire English production like this one. And I'm so glad I've seen this one, otherwise, I would have missed a lot !
If you are looking for a John Wick kind of action, well, this is not it. This is more about the love of family and things you are willing to do for them. The sacrifices you are willing to do to ensure their safety, even if you've tried all your life to lead a life "away" from your family's past.
I would like to commend all the actors and the production staff who participated in this series. Job well done !
Don't dare miss this one !

- WissenswertesMcMafia is a book by Misha Glenny about global crime written ten years ago. Many crimes/scams of the book have been included in the television series but it is the Russian chapters that formed the basis for the programme. Certain characters are based on real people and real events. The name McMafia refers to the way criminal syndicates would 'lend' the use of their name to smaller criminal gangs for a fee (such as a small Russian gang using the 'chechyn mafia' name to make intimidation and extortion easier because of the Chechyn mob's feared reputation) This is where the 'franchising' idea like that of McDonald's relates to 'McMafia'.
