      Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Ordinary people recall their involvement in some extraordinary crimes in this highly entertaining documentary series. Aug 27, 2021 Full Review Rebecca Nicholson Guardian Heist is cleverly told, keeping its many twists and turns in reserve until the moments when they will have the most impact, and it is a lot of fun. Rated: 3/5 Jul 19, 2021 Full Review Nina Metz Chicago Tribune laying fast and loose with the truth has a way of undermining the entire series. I didn't trust anything I saw on screen after that... Still, it's fascinating viewing, if a relatively inelegant format. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 19, 2021 Full Review Joel Keller Decider A change of pace from the usual Netflix true crime docuseries, which by itself warrants a recommendation. Jul 27, 2021 Full Review Diego Jemio Clarín Full of money and tension. [Full review in Spanish] Jul 26, 2021 Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media It's an entertaining storytelling formula, but some may question the ethics behind showcasing thieves and their actions so sympathetically.

      Edgar G The description and premise of the series definitely hooked me in and had the staples of a great docu-series. Netflix turns 30 minute stories into an hour and a half of way too much dialogue that made me skip ahead multiple times. They go into characters that are not always relevant like the families of the people that committed these heists which dilutes the overall experience. Its a slow burn to nowhere and by the time you reach the end you're so fed up that you ended up just looking up the outcomes of the heists online just to get the end of the story. I would not recommend. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Each episode feels like a trailer for a better documentary. Quite poorly executed. Telling stories in such a long drawn out way I found myself skipping through just so I could get to the point. If you do watch don't bother with the first episodes of each story. So much irrelevant information and filler. Each episode story could have and should have been 30 mins maximum. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent job of retelling these incredible stories. There was never a dull moment. The blend of reality and reenactments portrays perfectly that truth is crazier than fiction! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Fairly entertaining and it definitely passes the time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
