In Tulsa, King may be his best work just from an acting standpoint, he nails the role of the mob Capo like a cold stone
I’ve always liked Stallone, over the years, yes, he’s addicted to sequels, but he’s made some really enjoyable movies with a few classics sprinkled along the way. The series itself has an interesting story, is well written, makes full use of the humor of a New York mobster in Tulsa Oklahoma without being silly, delivers a healthy dose of violence, good writing and dialogue, and great supporting cast and characters, and they have a winner.
A fun watch, well worth watching
