Executive producer Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson helps keep things tough and gritty, but with a compassion for parents forced to watch helplessly as their kids go bad. Go to Full Review Caroline Framke Variety 09/29/2021
BMF defaults to distracting "vintage" filters and scattershot storytelling that often threaten to flatten the setting and characters that might otherwise make it unique. Go to Full Review Joshua Robinson Thrillist 12/01/2021
STARZ and 50 Cent's latest crime drama is off to an undeniably exciting start, and if it brings depth to more of its central characters and creates more unforgettable "You Can't Stop the Rain"-esque moments, then BMF will be unstoppable.

Mike & Janise G @MikeGonzo315 08/08/2023 Great show! Every episode had me excited and ready to watch the next one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ See more Derek B @RT09342511 02/25/2023 Initially slow but picking up speed in the best way, this show is a paradigm of what great storytelling requires. See more 01/06/2022 I loved this show. Seeing the characters of Meech and Terry have to balance out their two lives was very entertaining. The one place where I feel the show falls off a bit is the villain of Lamar. He starts out as a threatening, imposing, scary figure, but towards the end of the season he kind of doesn't get a lot to do. Overall, looking forward to a second season! See more 12/24/2021 This show was awesome! It had me on the edge of my seat waiting for Big Meech to pop Lamar! See more 12/01/2021 Great show!!! Awesome cast!!!! See more 11/05/2021 Imagine Menace II Society meets GoodFellas with more time to dive into characters and motivations. Before you try to jump down my throat and shout blasphemy on my comparison to GoodFellas, hear me out. This show is not getting the attention or acclaim that it deserves. Season 1, episode 5's, "Secrets and Lies", scene with real life brothers Steve and Wood Harris and episode 6's, "Strictly Business" highly memed scene featuring Eric Kofi Abrefa's rendition of Loose Ends' "You Can't Stop The Rain" are shining examples of the caliber of acting this show is displaying. Everything from the locations, to the costumes and music choices add to the authenticity of BMF. It feels like Detroit and it looks like the period this show takes place in. Beyond the acting and the setting is the writing. This show is doing an excellent job of giving us the motivation for all of the main characters and it's not done purely through exposition, we get to see why these characters are driven to their respective actions. Nothing in this show feels forced or like a reach. Do yourself a favor and give this show a chance and soon you'll be hooked and on the edge of your seat as well. See more Read all reviews
