The Hollywood ReporterRobyn BahrApr 2, 2026
Immortal Man certainly is a lot of misery business, but the misery is done in high style. Read full review

Wall Street JournalJohn AndersonMar 20, 2026
Straightforward storytelling was never the strong suit of the show, which relied very much on Mr. Murphy’s charisma and that of his co-stars, notably Sophie Rundle, who plays sister Ada Shelby. The future always looked grim in Peaky Blinders, but the fate of the show, which apparently has two Murphy-less years to go in a planned sequel, is beyond uncertain. Read full review

Time OutPhil de SemlyenMar 9, 2026
It’s often enthralling – especially with Murphy at its heart – though rarely explosive. Read full review

The Travers TakePeter TraversMar 6, 2026
Cillian Murphy’s gangster icon Tommy Shelby makes his big-screen debut in a standalone film that can’t stand up against the great series that spawned it. For all its entertaining fan service, it’s an unnecessary coda to an unforgettable TV classic. Read full review

Radio TimesTerry StauntonMar 5, 2026
Of the newcomers to the saga, Keoghan imbues Duke with a tender vulnerability beneath all his surface bluster and violence, and his scenes with Murphy give the film palpable heart whenever it runs the risk of being overwhelmed by beatings, bullets and bombs. Read full review

The IndependentClarisse LoughreyMar 5, 2026
What’s worked before works here just as well. Tommy Shelby persists. Read full review

NMEJames MottramMar 5, 2026
With so many of the gang now in the ground, this swansong doesn’t boast the same punk energy of the show’s early seasons. Only occasionally does it snarl and show its teeth, with flashes of the cold-blooded violence that gave it so much of an edge. Read full review

EmpireDan JolinMar 5, 2026
With its edgy style intact, The Immortal Man never takes its eye off the Peaky faithful. But keeping the fans happy is a double-edged sword, as it can’t help but just feel like an extra-long episode rather than a standalone cinematic experience. Read full review

It is a resoundingly confident drama. Read full review

The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisMar 20, 2026
In its quest to give us a little bit of everything, it finally delivers not nearly enough of anything. Read full review

IndieWireMiriam BalanescuMar 5, 2026
Though imperfect, if it were the Peaky Blinders’ last hurrah, it’s certainly a spectacular way to go. Read full review

The A.V. ClubRory DohertyMar 5, 2026
The Immortal Man is not a good entry point into Peaky Blinders for the same reason it is not rewarding for existing fans: It traffics only in the late stages of Shelby’s arc, but offers nothing new to those who have already been there, done that. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleZaki HasanMar 5, 2026
There’s a difference between extending a story and deepening it. While this latest entry is thoughtful and stirring, it doesn’t exactly improve upon the elegant finality the series granted Tommy Shelby four years ago. Sometimes the most powerful ending is the one that understands when enough has been said. Read full review

The TelegraphChris BennionMar 5, 2026
It’s stylish, yes, it has verve and swagger and real love for the time and the place. But this is Tommy Shelby and the Peaky Blinders playing their greatest hits on what feels a little like a farewell tour. Those peaks just aren’t as razor-sharp as they used to be. Read full review

The Irish TimesTara BradyMar 5, 2026
What once felt coolly stylised now seems mannered, even silly. The cufflinks gleam from the heritage cosplay: the razor has dulled. Read full review
