I'm up to episode 3 and I'm liking this one. I'm not one to give much away. If you want to watch a crime drama then this is one I'd happily recommend!

This is a well-crafted tale of family, loyalty, crime and vengeance set in present day Dublin.

Clare Dunne, Aiden Gillen and Ciarán Hinds are - as always - excellent.

Methodical and gritty. This series has great potential.

I personally thought the second season was better than the first. The character of Bren brought this series to life and made it much more gritty. I wasn't keen on the relationship with Michael and his estranged daughter in either season. The acting and dialogue just wasn't working and was slow and repetitive. Ciaran Hinds in the first season was also good and the camera screen just loves his presence. Obviously can't go into details with the storylines because it will spoil this but I thought the character of Eric also did a great Job in both seasons. Overall I preferred the second season of this series.

It's intense, gritty, stylish, and cleverly written. There's a whole crew of fresh faces, and a few very welcome familiar ones. Expertly done!!
