Black Rabbit (2025) – Crime/Drama/Thriller

Netflix has unleashed its latest crime thriller, Black Rabbit (2025), and early buzz is calling it the next Ozark. Starring Jason Bateman and Jude Law, the series dives into the dangerous web of family ties, betrayal, and New York’s unforgiving criminal underworld.

Jude Law takes the lead as Jake, a polished restaurant owner whose new hotspot, Black Rabbit, is poised to dominate Manhattan nightlife. But his world unravels when his estranged brother Vince (Bateman) resurfaces—reckless, chaotic, and drowning in debt to the wrong people. What begins as a family reunion quickly spirals into a tense struggle for survival.

The show isn’t just about gangsters and nightclubs—it’s about brotherhood, love, and the damage family members can inflict on each other. Adding to its originality, Oscar-winner Troy Kotsur delivers a standout turn as a deaf crime boss, giving the series a unique edge in the crowded crime drama landscape.

Critics remain divided: some hail Black Rabbit as one of Netflix’s strongest limited series in years, while others argue its tone is too dark and slow. Still, with an impressive 83% score on Rotten Tomatoes and directors like Jason Bateman and Laura Linney shaping the show, it’s already standing shoulder to shoulder with Ozark.

Filmed entirely on location in New York, Black Rabbit pulses with authenticity, claustrophobic tension, and a raw emotional core. For fans of Ozark or the unrelenting anxiety of Uncut Gems, this eight-episode series is the kind of binge that leaves you breathless.

The only question is: will you devour all eight episodes in one night—or savor the chaos slowly?
