De Kraak

This small series starts very modern and promises a lot of interesting suspends. From the middle it goes down and wordy. What a pity.

... there are some really good shows that for whatever-reason(s) don't make it past their premier-release... then there are those that continue-on-and-on well past a time they should have been pulled-ended... regrettably De Kraak (The Bank Hacker) falls into the former category

... here's a production that's just entertaining-watching... well done in all-parts, it's a-binge-watch-show belonging on a major-streaming-service, so it can be enjoyed by a much larger viewing audience... five hundred ratings on IMDb, just four written-reviews (now-five) shows just how not-known-about-unseen it-really-is

... and Ella-June Henrard is absolutely-gorgeous (search for her), and a very-good-actor, and doesn't even have a picture on this review-site... how crazy is that.

Told mainly in flashback by one of the participants of a bank cyberheist, this series pulled one in from the beginning. Of course, belief in reality has to be suspended and the characters were written to a formula but the story convinces nonetheless.

There seemed to be a twist in every episode and I didn't predict more than one of them. I guessed the very final twist and was certain there'd be a cliffhanger and what form it would take. So we are set up for a second series, I assume.

There's so much good television coming out of Flanders. I've seen several excellent crime dramas from there and this was another one.

What a brilliant story. So very intelligent. And great acting too. Amazing I had never seen any of the actors before. Don't miss the last episode. That one is the best. I don't know how, but I really hope there will be sequel.

Good series, and I also love the Belgian actors Gene Bervoets and Dirk van Dijk , so one more plus. And no, I am not from Belgium.

Yes, the theme can be somewhat cliche but the number of surprises from beginning to end keep the series very entertaining and with very exciting moments.

The worst are the repetitive scenes during the last episodes, to fill time, I think.

At the same time also quite funny and with a message that I love, the most powerful in the banks drive us all crazy, we are puppets without a doubt.

The story of LiLy Rose is also really good and with another message to learn.

The music is also excellent, and gave me a vibe of the movie 'Now You see me'.

If you are going to film a second season count on me!! ;))
