The plot is just enough to keep you going. There's just enough, perhaps just a little less than enough, to keep the actors going, and to keep the producers producing. And for that reason this is a GREAT watch.
Tom Hardy's playing of Freddie is chilling yet human and very nuanced. Really worth a watch. And his wife, played by Kierston Wareing, is similarly well played. The entire cast is good, in fact. And the production is high quality.
**** SPOILERS ****
Very gritty, very interesting, and there is a very well-acted weird psychosexual crisis going on between Freddie and Jimmy.
The author (or just the screenwriter?) obviously doesn't know too much about gang life, but the timeline is reasonably spread out and and the clichés are largely tolerable. On the more unforgivable side of stupid, there's a token black guy who randomly gets killed.
