Helikopterrånet

As a big fan of "Moneyheist" (La Casa...) I kind of like this even more as it nots so polished.

Every star in money heist were photo-esque, stars or selected to be great cover material for magazines.

Here we have more or less normal people, behaving as people do. They were not perfect, and we got to know them as how they live and... work.

The acting from our main stars are amazing, and as a Swede I think the script and dialogue were spot on.

Scenery and locations were as it is, imperfect too. The location wasnt a polished office building, but more as a industry building - as it was in reality. Kudos to details!

Having it as a mini-serie, fantastic - if this had been a hollywood production with action and dramatized events with no back-story. No thanks.

This was simply put great!

I really liked this series based on real events. It is very exciting and in each episode the tension rises more and more.

It's not simply about the robbery it's about relationships, economic pressures, loyalty and desperation that lead individuals to extraordinary measures, rather than glorifying the criminal deed.

The emotional heart is family, and sometimes the family history is a little dense and can distract from the main theme, although it didn't bother me, because the plot has a lot of potential and it is very gripping.

The performances are brilliant and the plot is very well built. Don't miss this one!

I have always had a hard time watching Swedish productions as a Swede. This time, I felt like almost everything was well executed. Acting was mostly great, cast was up to the mark, script was of a high standard and the plot was, besides being predictable (obviously), really captivating. Just great.

I really think they managed to overcome the "problem" of choosing a side here. Who do I really want things to go well for? You ended up in some sort of middle ground that followed during the course of the series, which I was content with.

Something that I felt was a little off was the team of detectives, or whatever they are supposed to be called. They did not exude direct competence. Everyone but Leonie felt rather uninterested in the whole case. She had to come in as a savior in times of need a little too often, even when it came to things that felt relatively obvious. But maybe that is how it all went down, what do I know?

Overall, I really enjoyed the series. It was captivating and offered details, which I believe happened in reality, and which had not been heard of before. I think it is worth seeing for everyone, not just Swedes who have pre existing knowledge of the case.

*Helicopter Heist* was absolutely brilliant, and I'm honestly baffled by all the whining. People complaining seem to expect some kind of flawless Hollywood blockbuster, completely missing the point. The series delivered a gripping story, great pacing, and solid performances that kept me hooked the entire time. Sure, it's not perfect-but honestly, who cares? It's a true story, not some overproduced Marvel movie. If you can't appreciate the effort that went into bringing this insane heist to life, then you're just being ungrateful. Stop nitpicking and enjoy it for what it is: thrilling, raw, unforgettable, and totally worth the watch.

Wow, this series simply blew me away! I was hooked from the first episode. The mix of action, suspense, and the emotional depth of the characters is just incredible. What really stood out was how the story isn't just about a robbery; it dives into loyalty, desperation, and the choices people make when backed into a corner. Every twist kept me guessing, and the acting was so raw and real that I forgot I was watching a series. This is one of the best true-crime dramas I've ever seen-10/10 without a doubt!

I don't remember the last time I watched something in one breath. You won't regret spending your time on this!
