I’ve always liked Stallone, over the years yes he’s sequel dependent but he’s made some really enjoyable movies with a few classics along the way. In Tulsa King might be his best work from an acting perspective alone, he just coolly writes the role of a mob capo.
Fun to watch, worth watching
The series itself has an interesting story, is well written taking full advantage of the New York mobster humor in Tulsa Oklahoma without being ridiculous at all, throw in a healthy dose of violence, good writing and dialogue, and a great cast of supporting actors and characters and they have a winner.
