I'm not sure what "Harry (Tom Hardy) goes on a bloody rampage against Brendan (Daniel Betts)" was supposed to mean since that didn't happen.

Some of the storylines in this show are so ridiculously trite that you start thinking "ah, there's going to be a twist on this old trope" but no, Gina gets with Eddie even though it's formulaic and stereotypical and makes her seem less interested and oh course Jan blabs away to her new friend despite knowing she shouldn't because "reasons" or she's lonely or something and of course Harry who's been running around non-stop all day has the energy to Rambo waves of mercs and thugs without breaking a sweat.

Might be time to watch something else instead 🤷

*hell bent not "he'll bent".

"Review bombing" doesn't apply to an opinion on a seperate.com, the term only applies to IMDB or Google etc where the public write bad reviews to make something seem worse, like they did with Show White.

😒 there's an echo chamber of similar opinions in the comments section apparently so me saying I mostly agree with the review probably won't go down well.

It feels like Guy Ritchie has such a success with Lock, Stock... that sometimes with other projects like this he just says "make it gangsters and have lots of different things happening, that's what worked before" but like this review points out that can often just lead to threads and stories going nowhere because they've hi been thrown in to make it seem like lots of things are happening.

I'm not sure what was the "this is too ridiculous to be believable any more" part for me this episode: Harry somehow getting blackmail information on a specific hotel clerk that was definitely on shift and definitely at the front desk at the hotel on the 1 hour 45 minute helicopter flight from London to Antwerp or Ritchie somehow organising dozens of mercenaries near Antwerp-a city of just over half a million people-to scope out and infiltrate the location of the ruby deal without any of the guards there noticing until just after the deal was done...oh wait, maybe it was Vron apparently driving around with two bricks of C4 under her car for "six days" was it before blowing up?

Maybe I should've given up on the show having any credibility when Valjon went to the trouble of cutting up Tommy's body, wrapping every part and then decided to just keep all the bits instead of getting rid of them even after Harry asks for CCTV footage of Eddie in Valjon's club.

I was actually thinking of cancelling my Paramount+ subscription and realised I wouldn't mind not seeing the end of Mobland even though I still watch it because, unlike a lot of commenters here seem to be able to understand, some of us can watch things we're not completely in love with and make a critical assessment of what's wrong with it.

I'm your age but SFW? What TV "used to be" like a trite Guy Ritchie gangster story? Did you actually think your read was insightful? Maeve being Machiavellian is so obvious it's only insulting to pretend it's not obvious to anyone with a decent IQ.

Why are you commenting on an article if you clearly don't like it? Take it for what it is, move on and try and understand someone else's opinion that you're not forced to read doesn't actually affect "the rest of us" at all.

Also, maybe stop assuming you're a spokesperson for some "rest of us" and speak for yourself.

Questions are supposed to end with a question mark by the way.

So your counter argument is just "uh uh, you're wrong, I believe the opposite and I'm not going to explain why"? Just because something is confusingly written, unpredictable and illogical doesn't mean it's deep and well written.

The show is reminding me more and more of watching "Lost" (coincidentally another show about a plane crash and stranded survivors) years ago where the longer the show ran the more it felt like the writers hadn't planned out properly the storylines and were just throwing "mysteriously confusing things" in until the show got ridiculous.

A lot of the writing isn't great and doesn't make sense, you can it that and still enjoy watching the show. I do: I think a lot of the show is ridiculously stupid and there's more plot holes than parts that make sense but I still watch and enjoy it every week.
