Danette Chavez AV Club Gangs Of London doesn't just put bodies into the ground; it exhumes the ones in the foundations of these supposed beacons of civilization. Rated: B+ Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Sophie Gilbert The Atlantic Gangs of London exists on a fully realized plane of its own, where brutality is power, death is inevitable, and even the pigeons are on cocaine. I love it. I cannot get enough of this show. Apr 7, 2021 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Magazine/Vulture Finch is a terrific audience surrogate, radiating the disgruntled lumpenprole badassery of Charles Bronson. Apr 2, 2021 Full Review Olly Richards NME (New Musical Express) With a long wait until Peaky Blinders returns, there's room for another lavish, sprawling crime drama. Gangs of London confidently barges its way into that space. It could well wind up challenging for the title of best crime drama on British TV. Rated: 4/5 Apr 29, 2021 Full Review Joel Keller Decider Despite all our reservations, we're recommending Gangs Of London because it feels like the story is going to be relatively straightforward. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Lindsay Traves CGMagazine By being one part The Departed, one part Guy Ritchie movie, and splashed with the blood of a thousand The Raids, Gangs of London ends up scratching multiple itches simultaneously. Rated: 8/10 Feb 24, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Adam R COMIC BOOK GANGSTERS I love a gangster show the sopranos is incredible television and this show couldn’t be more different but in a good way. The action sequences are amazing and some of the acting is unbelievable as a comic book style gangster thrilled this ticks all the boxes it’s gritty and dark and characters are larger than life but I prefer an element of realism that this show lacks in spades. However the action scenes are the best I have ever seen on television and you can’t have gritty realism and that level of action it doesn’t work and the writers clearly knew that so they don’t overcomplicate characters or slow the story too much. My only issue would be the Shaun Wallace character I don’t like the put on voice or teary eyed acting I don’t think they cast that character properly and the storyline is woeful and basic but the action scenes make up for it and it’s worth a watch just for that. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/27/24 Full Review Gaming N my glorious king gareth evans never fails Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review John C The story line and acting are good….but the action scenes (fights, chases, shoot-outs) are next level. This show is a kick. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review Matthew S This show is INTENSE. This show is jaw-dropping. This show is very much worth watching. A+ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Alan B Absolutly the BEST gangster series in YEARS..Bloody, fast paced, hard hitting...strong , believable characters....not for the faint hearted....strong intertwining story lines that leave you on the edge of your seat...season 1 and 2 flew by...roll on season 3....A MUST..! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Kirsty M ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️......... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
