The Gentlemen on Netflix is a fun,

dark, Guy Ritchie production with hysterical characters.

A British soldier, Edward, is sent home because his father is dying. His father is a duke, and the title and property are supposed to go to the eldest male heir, an elder brother who is a playboy, bad gambler, and drug addict. But when the duke dies, he leaves the bulk of the estate, snd the title, to Edward, the younger son.

The younger son discovers that his father has been raking in $5 million a year as his cut of a secret cannabis operation on the estate. As he tries to work towards moving the business away from the estate, he becomes more involved in the criminal activities created by the ineptitude or stupidity of others. Hilarity ensues.

There is violence, f-bombs, brief nudity.

Some unexpected twists. For a while, the episodes got really gory. That's all I will say.
