This review won't be long but I have to say that I am mighty impressed.
The flashbacks are great to conclude this epic television show in this fifth and final season. But it's the "present" story that really carries these two episodes, in my opinion. Anyway, Boardwalk Empire episode one and two are the best I have seen on the television set since the last two episodes of season three. Steve Buschemi, Michael Shannon, Stephen Graham, Vincent Piazza are all excellent along with the entire crew and the whole production. I would recommend this season even to newcomers. The quality is so high that it beats most AAA movies. Now let us just hope that the grand finale is spectacular.
