About
You may enjoy this if you like gritty, serialized crime stories with a vintage noir feel and a tense cop-versus-gangster rivalry; Not for you if you want light fun, fast payoff, or something closer to Knight Rider.
Pros: gripping cop-vs-mob feud; strong atmosphere and music; ambitious long-form story | Cons: uneven acting at times; episodic detours; rough or dated elements
