A Thousand Blows - Kritiken

...the irresistible new boxing drama from the Peaky Blinders creator.

Going toe-to-toe with Peaky Blinders was never going to be easy, but A Thousand Blows puts up a decent fight.

Set in a gritty and grimy underworld, the show is brought to life through impressively dressed sets and costumes, all of which make it an immersive watch.

Peaky Blinders comparisons will come, but this boxing drama is its own beast.

The myriad bouts of pugilism are equally violent and vibrant, powered by the convincing, pumped-up physicality of Graham and Kirby.

Steven Knight’s gritty Victorian boxing drama A Thousand Blows strikes true.

...en riktig smocka till serie som hela tiden stimulerar.

Stemningen indkapsles perfekt allerede ved det allerførste skud, hvor smudsige og tætbefolkede gader understreger, at vi befinder os i de rå afkroge af et victoriansk England.
