A really good violent crime family story with the best of 80's nostalgia smacking you in the face. It's a camped up London Gangland, Costa del Sol and retro, yellow Rolls Royce ride. It's not particularly realistic or completely believable and it's not supposed to be. That doesn't mean it isn't gritty or a high quality production.
The acting is top drawer - Jason Flemyng particularly puts in an exceptional performance.
The show is full of twists and turns and I found it thoroughly entertaining and managed to binge watch it in a weekend.
The sound track is phenomenal so get that sound bar plugged in.

Thank you for not ruining something as awesome as the original
Thank you for not just using CGI, therefore providing some of the greatest action ever to grace the screen
Thank you for making a sequel that didn't let me down
Thank you for showing Hollywood how to make a real movie again
... this is what happens when actors and producers really care about the original film showing it the respect it deserves instead of just raping it and the fans to make fast money.
One word final word - EPIC!

Personally I find the child playing Leia really precocious. She's supposed to be 10, yet speaks like a know it all self righteous teenager, and looks like a 6 year old.
Ewan / Obi and the cinematography crew are top drawer but this episode in particular has an air of blade runner about it.
The storyline and drama isn't particularly compelling for the simple reason that we already know Ben Kenobi, Leia, Luke, Owen, and Darth will all make it through the series alive.
For the record I really enjoyed The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get into this if the screen time continues to be taken up by quite and irritating child character.
