Let's not pretend this is a smart and clever show, because it's really not. Let's also not pretend that Stallone can act convincingly, because he really can't.
But was he likeable as cartoon gangster Manfredi? Totally.
Suspend you disbelief because the silliness is dialed to eleven pretty quickly and this gets progressively worse (or better, depending on your taste).
The show doesn't seem to take itself too serious however, so paired with the rather short runtime of each episode, it's pretty easy to stomach and get entertained if you accept everything for what it is.
It's shallow, it's cliché. It's not even good. But it's entertaining.
This felt like a "thank you, Sly" send-off more than anything else. Well deserved, I reckon.
7/10.
