Der Millennium-Raub

Nothing is more disgusting than rich people flaunting their wealth like it's some kind of art exhibition. This series taps straight into that twisted reality, and I loved every minute of it. The plot revolves around an attempt to steal a diamond, but honestly, I couldn't help rooting for the bandits. The so-called "victims" are dripping with greed, privilege, and ego, which makes the tension even more satisfying. Great acting, stylish production, and a sharp critique of the elite. More of this, please! Honestly! This is just an absolute pleasure to watch! So if you haven't then go for it just right now!

We simply must! And not just monetarily compensate, but in street credibility as well - Dude even says how this hiest should have given him the respect he deserves - why are WE AS A SOCIETY rewarding them, even after they have served thier debt to society via incarceration - I just can't do it anymore and I wish that yall would join me - these stories can be told sans the criminals participant(s) and should do - we can recount or reenact in luie of giving these people exactly what the want (in some cases as much as the ill gotten gains) and don't get me wrong, I'm no saint and I'm more liberal than not, but this reward/redemption is problematic

I've given it a 5 because, as I've indicated, I chose to opt out soley on ethical (or I spose moral) reasons, the aforementioned reasons - and I did not feel it fair to penalize the film/filmmakers for this, but to be fair, I actually should, owing to everything I stated I feel strongly about - anyhow, I hope this resonates with some of yall.

On the one hand this is quite an interesting heist with a good story to tell.

On the other this is such a slick snd glossy production that it ends up glamorising and sanitising the real crime and gangsters as if it's one of Guy Ritchies dramas. There is a difference between TV drama and reality after all, and I think a different production style would have helped. It also gives a lot of attention and voice to the criminals themselves, which is what they want (as they say in their own words). Almost resulting in giving the impression they were in the right or somehow entitled to do what they did.

This series describes the story about a diamond heist in London from the point of a robber/thief, journalist and a cop.

It glorifies the life of the robber - who just wants to score because of money and status. Forgetting everything else - like his two daughters.

It has three episodes - and god might question why. This little story could easily have been told in one or two episodes - but hey: Netflix wanted a show.

Overall: very mediocre. It gives a glimpse of the prework before the heist. But is mainly repetitive. How often have we seen the clip with the boat or the spiked van? No, this is just too simple.

Truly unbelievable how a crew of men can pull off a high risk diamond heist like this, I'm not gonna lie, Netflix's really doing a great job making these types of mini-series. I always said that real life beats any movie or tv show and this is the proof, this mini-series is the evidence. Very well documented, very good footage, archive footage, etc. You don't need to do a research in order to watch this, it's very well done. You're not gonna get bored watching it, it's amazing how few men can plan something like this and actually stick to the plan and do the job, i highly recommend this mini-series.
