The Gentlemen (2024)
7/10
The posh version of Brassic.
15 March 2024
I really enjoyed episode 1 to 6 of the show but by episode 7 and 8 I kind of lost interest in it.

The show started off really fun with great humour. It was sort of ridiculous but in a good way, the type that is so ridiculous it turns out being funny. The whole "all rich people are criminals" really worked but it got a little desperate and rushed towards the end.

In the last 2 episodes I just felt like it stopped being funny and silly and got really serious. They also really rushed the ending I think.. instead of having it all wrapped up in episode 8 they could have added the extra episode and had a really good, action packed ending.

The John the Gospel story seemed like it was going to be rather interesting but I'm still not even sure what happened with that. It just burnt out rather fast. The end storyline with The Game Keeper as well (Vinny Jones) was so cliché it turned into being cringey.

I probably will watch season 2 though because as a whole the show wasn't that bad and its definitely the best thing Netflix has made in a while.
