The Gentlemen

[Section_31]

Just finished it, Guy Ritchie series on Netflix. Thought it was brilliant and funny as fuck at times. I've never actually seen any Richie stuff but this was top drawer.

 

The main bloke would have been a decent pick for the next Bond actually but he's cracking on.

[Jairzinho]

Yeah, watched the first couple of these. Standard fare Ritchie stuff, but it's definitely watchable.

 

The main female character is shit though.

[Bjornebye]

Got two episodes left and it all looks like it’s about to properly kick off. 
 

Freddie is funny as fuck. 
 

Rock N Rolla is a brilliant Guy Ritchie film, similar gangster stuff with some funny moments. Excellent cast as well. 

[VladimirIlyich]

Seen the whole series and it's very enjoyable. Keeping the interest for 8 episodes was also achieved very well too.

[Elite]

It's a solid show, should get a few  more quality seasons out of it.

Yeah, I binge watched it last week and thought it was great. The Scouser making Freddy dress up as a chicken had me in stitches.

Peter Seafinowicz was actually born and is from the city so his OTT accent was pretty much spot on.

Grew up in Belle Vale so if anything it’s soft. His grandad was a Belarusian nazi collaborator apparently.

I think they have to make it sound like that so the audience can understand the stereotypical scouse character. His Preacher Brother is a Manc trying to be a scouser. It shows.

Went to SFX and was the voice of Darth Maul.

Got to have a bit of that.

Could only stomach 3 episodes. 

 

Absolute dogshit show, dogshit writing and even dogshitter actors. 

 

Rubbish show.... 

[Anubis]

Really enjoyed it but felt the final episode Met it down a tad. Everything seems to resolve a little too quickly.

They wanted to set up a second season which was at the cost of an explosive finale.

I’ll put you down as a maybe for season 2 then. 

[Bob]

I was off sick last week so.bingwd it in about 3 or 4 sittings when I was feeling well enough to slouch in front of the TV.

 

I enjoyed it but won't give it a seconds thought a year from now. Enjoyable nonsense.

[polymerpunkah]

Enjoyed the first few, particularly the brother, but after that it was just more of the same.

 

Above average, I'd say, as it's well made and entertaining.
