This is a pretty impressive beginning. After the first 10 minutes I started getting interested and towards the end of the episode I knew that I have to watch more.
They managed to put quiet a few things into the pilot that brings us action and also introduce a big variety of characters to us. It seems like an interesting gangster show with interesting story lines and characters.
I must say I need to get used a bit to Charlie Hunnam. His acting is a bit weird to me, but it could be just the uniqueness of the character and I might be getting it within a few episodes.
Other than that there was some superb acting. I was very impressed by Katey Sagal and Drea de Matteo. Their scene at the end was pretty powerful. Gemma actually seems to be a very important character who has a lot to do with the criminal activities. I also liked her conversation with Clay about her son. Them trying to make sure Jax stays with the family business will most likely be an important story of at least the first season
