Critic Reviews

It's every bit as good as "The Sopranos" was in its prime.

Hardy and the supporting cast deliver.

The takeaway from The Take again proves an old showbiz saw: Cast the right actor as a mobster, and being bad can be pretty damn good.

It's nasty, hard-core stuff--a tale well told.

You can feel Hardy and his mad energy desperately pushing The Take along, but you can hear the gears grinding.
