Last post by M.10rda - Today at 09:29:11 AMPEAKY BLINDERS: THE IMMORTAL MAN (2026):
Hey, it's a brand new movie! Madame 10rda is a huge fan of the series whereas I thought it was - fine. As a result I seem to have enjoyed this feature length coda more than she did and presumably more than most hardcore BLINDERS fans will enjoy it. She didn't hate it but she just seemed to think it was - fine.
The last time we saw Irish short king Tommy Shelby, it was 1938-ish (or 2022 our time) and he was preparing to blow his head off on a picturesque hillside while listening to Radiohead.
Whatever season that was, 5 or 6, left things open so that Cillian Murphy could take a vacation and go win an Oscar for OPPENHEIMER and then maybe come back. Well he's back, three and a half years have passed in our time and in Tommy's, and the Nazis are dropping bombs on Tommy's turf. (SPOILERS: He didn't blow his head off.)
TLDR for the uninitiated or those who plan to watch it or have no plans to ever watch it: THE IMMORTAL MAN delivers everything that the series provided in essence though not so much in specifics. It has gorgeous cinematography, plentiful heroic bloodshed and general badassery, a pleasantly anachronistic rock soundtrack, a completely gratuitous sex scene (these must be in Murphy's contract), very good actors doing a lot of acting, and tin-eared to overripe dialogue (...worse than I remember from the series, tbh).
Only one other major character from the series appears, plus three of Tommy's supporting henchmen. However, the (arguably) second most-important character from the show doesn't appear, as they've met a bad end offscreen prior to this film's action.
A third major character who died in early seasons now resurfaces in the form of that character's twin. 
Tommy's adult son has now taken over his criminal empire and is played here by Barry Keoghan, who I'm almost positive never appeared in the series (the son may have shown up as a little kid in early seasons) yet I like Barry Keoghan so no sweat there. Tim Roth (very good here) joins the ensemble as a British fascist helping the Germans - the newest member of the illustrious PB Rogues Gallery which previously included Sam Neill, Adrien Brody, Tom Hardy, and some others I'm forgetting. Hardy's fan-favorite frenemy, a scenery-chewing Jewish psychopath, was still out there at the end of the previous series, and it would have been great fun to see him pop in for some Nazi-fighting action, but, no dice. 
As an only casual fan of the series, though, I had few expectations for profundity or closure, so I found this to be entertaining. BLINDERS was a big deal for Murphy for several years when his film career had seemed to temporarily stall out, and this finale gives his character an iconic send-off. 3.5/5
