Terra da Máfia

You won't be disappointed with the characters, plot, plot twists, relationships. It's devilishly good. At times, a story line might be hard to follow or you don't understand how all the pieces are connected, but it is explained soon enough. All cast is amazing but Tom Hardy, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan are standouts. Just when you think you've figured it out, there is another twist. Looking forward to season 2....hurry up.

MobLand is a proper gem, easily one of the best British gangster shows in years. Helen Mirren is ice-cold as Bella Harrigan, Pierce Brosnan oozes charm & danger, and Tom Hardy brings real grit to Harry Da Souza. Paddy Considine's tortured Kevin is spot on.

The supporting cast aren't just there to pad the story line, they all add to the dynamics of the plot & each has played an important part by the end of the series.

The story moves fast, the dialogue hits hard, and there's no filler. It's not just about gangsters, it's about family, power, & what people do when the pressure's on. Every scene feels tense, but it never goes over the top.

It looks great too. Stylish without being flashy, with a soundtrack that keeps things simmering underneath & the best use of "The Beast in Me" by Johnny Cash in a series ever. You believe in this world, and you want to stay in it.

Absolutely brilliant.

The first word that comes to my mind after watching Mobland is...amazing! Mobland is about two mob families that are in a war with each other that threatens everyone lives and the empires they work for. In the middle is a fixer named Harry Da Souza (Tom Hardy) who tries to stop these two families from eliminating each other. The cast is just brilliant...Tom Hardy, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan lead a terrific cast who are all at the top of their game here. Mobland is directed by Guy Ritchie so if you're a fan of his you'll love this and if you're not you'll still love it. This is easily one of the best shows of the year and I hope we get multiple seasons of it. It's a gritty drama with plenty of action and twists to keep you entertained throughout each episode. I really can't recommend this show enough.

Drawn to the show via some Facebook or YouTube reel, any gangster show with Tom Hardy is going to be worthwhile.

The accents from Brosnan and Mirren are grating and wildly inconsistent. I'd be happy to see far less of them in Season 2.

A stellar cast aside from that, and a familiar story but from a different POV. Not as good as Kin, but they're not trying to be the same show either.

Expecting something radically different now that ground has been laid, a la Love/Hate, where everything flipped after the debut season. More Jan, more Zosia, more Paul please.

/Refers to Season 1/

MobLand is a crime drama that delivers strong characters, tension, and psychological depth-even if it sometimes reaches beyond its limits. Led by a standout cast including Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren, this Guy Ritchie-produced series brings slow-burning suspense and emotional weight to the classic gangster story.

Tom Hardy is excellent as Harry Da Souza-quiet, intense, and fiercely loyal. He adds power to every scene he's in. Brosnan and Mirren, though their Irish accents have divided opinions, still grab attention, even if their performances sometimes feel a bit over-the-top. The supporting cast-Geoff Bell, Paddy Considine, and Lara Pulver-help build a world where loyalty, power, and betrayal constantly clash.

Visually, MobLand strikes a good balance between Ritchie-style flair and a more grounded, realistic tone. The cinematography is sharp, the music adds to the mood, and the direction keeps things focused. While the early episodes move slowly, the story picks up mid-season, offering twists that feel natural, not forced. The season finale leaves a few questions unanswered-enough to make you want more, without feeling unfinished.

The show's weak spots include inconsistent accents, some underdeveloped characters, and a few overly dramatic moments. Still, these flaws are outweighed by strong writing and powerful scenes.

In short, MobLand doesn't reinvent the gangster genre, but it gives it new energy. If you're looking for a smart, character-focused crime drama, this is well worth watching. Just don't expect Snatch-this one's darker, more serious, and takes its time to unfold.
