L'ultimo boss di Kings Cross

Yes it's good, works for where and when it was.

Still feels like it's not quite all there.

As there is no mention of Ibrahims driving days/nights with- George David Freeman (22 January 1935 - 20 March 1990) was a Sydney bookmaker, racing identity and illegal casino operator.

He was linked to the Sydney drug trade during the 1970s and 1980s, was named in several Royal Commissions into organised crime and had links with American crime figures. Freeman served several prison terms for theft between 1951 and 1968 but was never brought to trial for any of his later alleged crimes, receiving only monetary fines for SP bookmaking in the mid-1980s. Freeman survived a murder attempt in 1979, was married twice, published an autobiography and died in 1990 of heart failure related to asthma and pethidine addiction.

Decent cast each playing a personality of a real person in most cases. They look and sound just like the real people.

Cleary some of the details are fabricated or dramatised.

For an Australian based TV series this is world class.

Don't listen to the haters. Watch a couple of episodes, don't treat it like a documentary and you will enjoy it too.

I started watching with high hopes, yet low expectations. After episode 1, I was pleasantly surprised. I nearly didn't watch the show due to the past few Aussie crime biographies. In my opinion were poorly made and lacked intrigue.

The violence and stories behind it are unexpected for a free to air TV show, yet executed well with me wanting more at the end of each episode.

The quality of actors including " Matt Nable", Callum Mulvey", "Justin Rosniak" and "tim Roth (among others), was a nice surprise, not knowing anything about the show before watching it tonight.

8 stars I feel this could have easily been made into a seasonal tv series, yet I'm looking forward to the final episodes.

This is my first ever review on any show or movie. I think that shows how much of an impact this show has had on me. Having lived some similar experiences throughout my life..

Am halfway through the show now and enjoying myself! The Cross feels like a seedy place where anything can happen and because the show is a fictionalised version of that era they can add in plenty of violence to keep it entertaining. The leads are both great, John played by Lincoln Younes as the successful businessman and Sam played by Claude Jabbour who you think is a stiff older brother but turns into a dangerous loose livewire adding genuine electricity to every one of his scenes. And of course always nice to see someone like Tim Roth onboard adding that extra touch of Hollywood to the whole thing.

Looking forward to more episodes.

The first two episodes have dropped . This a very good violent and somewhat graphic recreation of Sydney's Kings Cross of the 70' and 80's

An epic gangster show based on true story . The Cross comes up a treat re dressed for the era and its retro colours really pop . They have clearly spent money on this show the special effects are high levers Tim Roth adds real international cred . To the gangster world of Kings Cross at that time -

The lead playing main character John Ibrahim the King of the Cross is excellent, he has real talent . Early days yet in his story but the first two eps have build a character arch that makes him both menacing yet likeable . Certainly far more likeable than most of the other characters, which bodes well

looking forward to next espisodes .
