What to Know

Critics Consensus

Boardwalk Empire continues to explore Nucky's past with satisfying results, though an extended hostage subplot feels a bit superfluous this late in the game.

I look forward to whatever the Nucky/Margaret team-up brings. Go to Full Review Verne Gay Newsday 01/02/2015

Another memorable outing, if not quite as memorable as the first two episodes of the fifth and final. Go to Full Review Craig D. Lindsey New York Magazine/Vulture 01/02/2015
3/5
As satisfactory as most of the ep was, I couldn't help thinking the whole Chalky and Buck subplot was suspenseful but superfluous. Go to Full Review Chris O'Hara TV Fanatic 01/02/2015
4.5/5
My favorite familiar face though was Mickey Doyle. Against all odds he has made it through to the final season. A character who should be dead five times over, he never fails to deliver some laughs. Go to Full Review Anthony Venutolo Newark Star-Ledger 01/02/2015
With only 5 episodes left, Nucky courts THAT patriarch from Nantucket, once again proving 'Empire' can weave real-life historical figures and fiction with aplomb. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
