-
The violent series once again is breathlessly plotted, and the production details all but make you smell the stench of the mangy streets.
-
It may not feel as fresh a fighter as it did last season, but I’d be willing to bet “A Thousand Blows” still has a few rounds left in it.
-
I like A Thousand Blows most when it dares to put character ahead of story. More Mary Carr, please.

When it’s hitting full stride — in those boxing bouts or with the delicious twist to the Forty Elephants’ central con — A Thousand Blows really is knockout stuff, punching hard, the main event.
