The episodes have been keeping our attention. It's full of action and a few funny moments as well. The dialogues between the two main actors are well-crafted. Wagner Moura's performance is a standout, reinforcing his reputation as a versatile and talented actor. His ability to convey emotion, whether through subtle facial expressions, elevates the entire production. It's even more impressive considering that he is performing in languages that are not his mother tongue, yet he delivers with remarkable authenticity.
This adds an extra layer of admiration for his craft, proving once again that talent transcends language barriers.
This is a series that delivers on multiple levels-action, humor, and amazing performances. It's definitely worth watching.

Dope Thief is a well produced show, it looks and feels like a movie and has a decent fast pace to keep you interested. But I found myself struggling to stay immersed in its world. The criticisms I've read about bad dialogue are something I don't agree with, it's fine as those are the characters. The problem is more the contrivances to manipulate your buy-in, in terms of how it wants the audience to root for the anti-heroes. They're essentially thieves, putting people at huge risk, yet they of course have to be likeable, big fuzzy well-meaning bears, with Ray looking after his stepmom, a dog and such like. It just seems a bit much. Then of course the implausibility of allowing this newly-released moronic redneck to tag along on a house siege, even giving him a gun, because of course our anti-heroes can't be the ones to actually kill anyone and ruin their 'innocent' status. That was some contrived writing right there.
It feels like it's trying to be a bit Breaking Bad, a bit 90s Tarantino, the gritty gray tones of The Wire - all of which makes it feel slightly dated. But there's also a strange comfort and familiarity in all that, the lack of gimmicks etc makes it an easy, chill watch. So despite its implausibilities it's still definitely worth a watch.

Dope Thief follows a pair of childhood friends who decide that ripping off drug dealers is their golden ticket to easy money. Because, you know, that always ends well. Their plan? Pretend to be DEA agents, steal the stash, and walk away like criminal masterminds. The reality? Well, let's just say things spiral faster than a TikTok conspiracy theory.
I've only watched the first two episodes so far, but I'm already hooked. The story is developing in a fascinating direction, and while I was skeptical about watching it at first, I'm really glad I gave it a shot.
The heart of Dope Thief lies in the dynamic between its two leads, Wagner Moura and Brian Tyree Henry, who deliver outstanding performances. They carry both the dramatic weight and the tension of the series, portraying two deeply flawed but compelling characters. Their chemistry is undeniable, making the emotional core of the story just as gripping as the crime itself.
Visually, Dope Thief maintains the high production value expected from Apple TV. The cinematography is sharp, the pacing is deliberate, and every scene builds tension in a way that keeps you on edge. The show isn't just about crime-it also quietly explores themes of loyalty, survival, and the blurred lines between right and wrong. And, in true Apple TV fashion, it looks incredible while doing it.
Ultimately, Dope Thief is a crime drama that knows exactly what it's doing. It's smartly written, well-acted, and undeniably addictive. If you're into stylish, character-driven crime stories, I think this one is worth your time. This is my take after two episodes, and I'm definitely sticking around to see where it goes.

Dope Thief's premise is good. A pair of small-time grifters pretend to be DEA agents in order to steal from drug houses and accidentally hit the wrong house, riling up dangerous and powerful people.
The actors are good too, especially Brian Tyree Henry and Kate Mugrew. But the writing just isn't up to par.
It starts well with a good balance of character development and action, and even some dark humor, which vanishes later in the season.
But there are plot twists that seem absurd, dialogue that sounds gratingly screen-written and not natural, and it's a problem that the two protagonists are largely buffeted around by forces beyond their control.
In a more dynamic story, they'd find a way to fight back more than they do. Stories where the protagonists are just trying to survive but are never in control of the narrative tend to wear out their welcome faster. That's okay for a two-hour disaster flick but not a multi-episode series. Wagner Moura's character in particular was a problem. All he seemed to do is cry.
The final episode is a convoluted mess as the writers attempt to tie up the plot threads in a hurried fashion. By the end, it seems like a different and worse series than the beginning.
Note that this isn't an ongoing series but a story that wraps up in one season so there isn't a huge investment to make. I suppose it could continue but it doesn't seem likely. By the time I started to get really fed up with it, the show was over.

This came on after I was watching Severance otherwise I would never have watched it. And it's not too bad. There's a lot of going on in the first two episodes. It's action and shootout heavy. But the characters are likeable. So far.
The scenery, lighting, camera work, locations are great IF you like that sort of grainy, grungy look for the most part. I do, so for me I loved that aspect. I'll be going back to see more of the sets for sure.
Hard to tell where it's going. Hopefully the pace slows a little: less gun fights, more character driven storyline. Time will tell. It's worth the first two episodes.
