How Does The Gentlemen TV Series Compare To The 2019 Movie?

It seems The Gentlemen season 1 has partially lived up to the movie’s high expectations despite the challenges of the inevitable comparisons.

The Netflix TV show is a spinoff of the 2019 film of the same name, which was also directed by Ritchie. The movie version holds a critical score of 75% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is fairly comparable to The Gentlemen show’s reviews thus far. However, there seems to be a slight preference for the original movie since it has an 84% approval rating from audiences. The movie version earned praise for its mystery, sharp comedy, and intriguing characters, and the show has received a similarly positive reception for replicating its aesthetic, albeit with some flaws.

The Gentlemen TV series and movie also contrast each other in the star power behind their cast. The movie version included a star-studded ensemble of Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Jeremy Strong, Colin Farrell, Hugh Grant, and Henry Golding. By contrast, the TV show’s biggest-name actor is Divergent’s James. Still, the Netflix show is packed with a notable ensemble cast, including Giancarlo Esposito (Stanley Johnston), an Emmy-nominated actor known for his role as Gus Fring in the Breaking Bad universe.

It seems The Gentlemen season 1 has partially lived up to the movie’s high expectations despite the challenges of the inevitable comparisons. This is likely due to Ritchie being involved in both projects, giving continuity in the portrayal of The Gentlemen universe. If the Netflix show continues to build on its initial good reviews, a season 2 renewal seems likely.
