**SEASON ONE REVIEW:**
Season Rating: 9/10
Overall Rating: 9/10
Great TV!
It took me about an episode and a half to fully get into it I admit, but from then on I was locked in constantly. S1 of 'McMafia' is outstanding! Riveting plot alongside some terrific acting, particularly from James Norton (Alex) and Merab Ninidze (Vadim). The locations are stunning, I love the worldwide feel to the show - I know that sounds obvious given the premise, but they truly make it feel global which is important.
Of course it isn't perfect, but it's very close to being so. Can't wait for season two!
