Certainly it’s easy enough to click the next episode button. As such, it’s a shame when scenes capitulate to cartoonishly sleazy brutality (the climax to the second episode is particularly off-putting). The bigger problem is the loss of the film’s streak of humour.
-
Not only is Sexy Beast a series that feels unnecessary, given its connections to a film that wasn’t a big hit a quarter century ago, but it doesn’t even rise to the level of being a good heist show on its own merits.
-
Sexy Beast the series exorcises his fever-dream flourishes and fills in the blanks with monotonous mobster clichés. It’s entirely lacking in the eerie power of the source material, instead playing out like EastEnders with a bigger budget while lacking any sense of mischief or danger.
