McMafia

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 !

As the series progresses I think it's getting better and better, it's gripping, high octane, pulse racing viewing. The McMafia name I'm assuming is an attempt to show the globalisation of crime, how something can quickly spread worldwide, crime is unfortunately global these days. I get why the Russians are a little miffed as there is a bit of Russian bashing in it, but in real life there are Russian criminals, as in deed there are British and Israeli (American etc.) James Norton impresses in everything he does, McMafia is another in the list of successes for him. Is this a pre empt for James Bond, time will tell. So the series perhaps starts off a little slow, and is very political heavy in its story telling, but it's intelligent, compulsive, gripping viewing, more please.

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.

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.

Story takes time to evolve but boy does it evolve. It gives a new direction to globalization of crime and how mafia work together. Love the characters and this show will definitely become a hit
