Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Acting and Writing are top notch. And the best yet are the haircuts. You know a show is good when you go into a barber shop or Salon and say you want the Peaky Blinders cut and they know what you're talking about. But seriously Cilian Murphy is absolutely wonderful as the leading role, he carries himself and the show, but the show doesn't even need it because the supporting cast is phenomenal. It's stupid that the bad reviews all say I got to the 2nd episode and quit watching, well your opinion and review are irrelevant. Only minuses is lots of Radiohead music and it starts off a tad slow, but picks up steam very quickly.

For the longest time I had no interest in watching this show. It looked too much like another "B'walk Empire" which I never cared for all that much anyway. But I started watching and became hooked. I must be one of the few who likes the music choices. I mean, what are you going to do? Nick Cave is prefect, PJ Harvey...and I also discovered a great song "Arthur's Hanging" via the show. The cast is IMO much of the strength. There can be a bit of over acting at times esp. from Arthur, but all in all I'd say they are all very good. One small note that threw me: the character of Grace obviously had some work done ion her nose in between Season 1 and 2. One can understand that actress's choice, but in a weird way I think that she was more beautiful with that imperfection before.I had seen other people's reviews who obviously had seen all seasons, and had grown disillusioned. I now understand why. Season 3 was unwatchable. Hackneyed writing, going for cheap responses, glaring plot holes, over acting, slow motion used to extreme.

If there is one "sin" in this totally perfect series, it is that it is precisely much too perfect; almost overwhelms me to experience all at the same time: fantastic turns of the plot, location, customs, acting, light, photography, camera use, and... audio and music! Kind of baroque experience. Music would be obvious for anyone seeing it (please, connect it to a good audio system and play it loud!), but I mean audio also: the way it often transfers from the wide scale scenery to the intimate one in the same take, just using audio is nothing short of spectacular. Another of the many remarkable things in PB: some chapters (specially at the opening) are a simply a poem in the use of traveling cameras, color punctuations (the sparks or fire bursts for example, red colors going all over the screen in a time sequence: a mesmerizing visual pleasure). I think this must be seen several times to really appreciate all the beauty that's inside it.

Great! Love every piece of it. By order of the peaky blinders.
