Guy Ritchie directs the first two episodes of the series co-starring Helen Mirren, in which two rival factions escalate violence to take control of London's criminal underbelly.

Guy Ritchie and the creator of 'The Day of the Jackal' turn their lens on a London crime family in "MobLand" starring Helen Mirren and Pierxe Brosnan.

Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, and Paddy Considine are predictably captivating as its chief criminals, but at least on the basis of its first two episodes, it’s a whole lot of stale plotting and humdrum posturing.
