Top Boy

Haven't written a review in years but had to rectify this wrong.

It's really unfair how stupid movies and series get thousands of reviews and recognition but gems like this only have 30 odd reviews. Hopefully now that Netflix has picked up season 3 and produced a masterpiece, maybe it will start to get the recognition it deserves.

For people watching the 3rd season first, you can watch it as a standalone as even though it is a continuing story line from past seasons like Narcos, etc, you will still understand whats going on and will really connect with the characters.

All in all a very gritty and realistic ride. The character development, suspense, twists are great and at the end of it you will be left wondering why you haven't heard of or seen this series before.

P.S - The ending of season 3 left very mouth watering prospects for season 4 to fulfill.

Oh my god Netflix have gone and done it. They have made a great series even better. I think this new revival is even better than the original made by channel 4. Hopefully they commission another series.

I highly recommend Top Boy for any fan of gritty, intense dramas! I didn't watch it until recently because of everything I heard about it and I'm so glad I finally gave it a chance and that Netflix made the incredible choice of bringing it back because it's as good as ever!

Top Boy is a well written, well acted British crime drama that is a must watch for any fan of this kind of genre. People calls shows underrated all the time but this is definitely underrated. It's one of those shows where once you start watching it you can't stop. The cast does such an excellent job sucking you into their world. The acting and writing is just so good that they really make you care about their characters and what happens to them. Each character has depth and this show shows that each of their actions have huge consequences. The only bad thing I have to say about it is that the seasons are so incredibly short. I really can't recommend this show enough!

I can't honestly remember when I last watched a series back to back all in one sitting. This series had me gripped from the start and I just had to watch it all back to back. Really great storyline and fantastic acting from the entire cast - they were all brilliant. I cannot recommend this highly enough - I can see why it scored so high. I am impressed.... Well done!
