Le Casse de l'impossible

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.

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.

What a let down, as with all Guy Richie nonsense he glamorizes crime, in this case, real crime. And we have the half wit jack the lad, happy go lucky criminal grinning away calling the Police a bunch of C**** and showing no remorse for his crimes. Justifying it as it was the only path he knew. Showing us his failed attempts and then his masterpiece. It's not that, its the fact that they only got 4 years real time for their crimes, yeah sure dress it up as 14 years but in reality only serving 4. Case in point one of his accomplaces did it all over again when he came out. And our main character is just obviously a Cocaine Dealer now he is out and on the Straight and Narrow...it's blindingly obvious. So what this documentary says to me is "Commit your crimes, we will let you out early, turn you into a Star and set you up for life" I hate what this country has become. The policemans story is the one that should have been told, not that damned criminal.

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!

Great watch. Shows the insights to all the sides to the story and was a great piece of creative story telling. Filmmaking at its finest.

Guy Ritchies auteur style of filmmaking really had me throughout the edge at all times. Really enjoyed the humour throughout the whole three amazing episodes and it had an amazing element of surprise to it.

By showing all the perspectives of the people involved in it, its something which is rare to watch in the media, cinema or the news.

The documentary had everything. Classy visuals, great editing and amazing story telling techniques which you would expect from a Guy Ritchie film especially when it comes to the gangster genre.
