Braquages d'anthologie

I am not sure what other reviewers are talking about, but I really enjoyed the dramitisation touch of series. Showing the history, building upto heist and then aftermath of events. It always kept you edge and wanting to hear more about the story.

Just because it's Netflix and you are not getting Discovery channel documentaries doesn't mean it's bad. It's engaging, exciting and a great watch.

Watched all episodes today and I'm a big fan of true crime shows and documentaries. This was very well done and little bit different than usually. Very good all and all series. Highly recommend.

I love watching documentaries, but it's like pulling teeth to get my fiancé to watch any with me. I begged her, after watching the first story myself to give it a shot. Turned out that everyone in the house loved it! We finished the whole series in a day. This documentary series has amazing cinematography with complex interviews, compelling scenes, and fantastic graphics. It takes a lot for me to sit down and watch TV all day, especially on a Saturday. However, this series had me hooked for a little over 4 straight hours and leaving me wishing there was more. Those who are giving this show a negative review either don't like seeing new concepts for documentaries, or they don't appreciate established work. Either way, this series is awesome and I can't wait for season 2!

The mini-series "Heist" thankfully wasn't about some gang of bank-robbers as seen on The FBI Files. It was, at least to me, an interesting look at obscure yet rather sensational solved robberies. More satisfying as such than those big crimes like The Gardner Museum art theft that will likely never be resolved.

Interviews with the actual perpetrators, as well as various law enforcement officials, increases the drama. The three stories here are wildly different in nature helping to create a compact series perfect for a binge-watch. This is done with the twist of dark comedy, but it is clear behind everything the cost was high casuing dire consequences. Recommended for true crime fans.

Probably these are the stories you have never heard about unless you have lived in the nearby towns.

Not all characters are depicted necessarily as the bad guys but more likely of becoming who they are due to growing within the elements of their own surroundings. Basically people who trying to survive are not necessarily tugs.

What makes the heist very interesting is that; ordinary people find themselves in extraordinary circumstances where the opportunity for steeling large sums of cash almost drops on their lap.

It turns out that hiding in plain sight is much more difficult than the stealing itself, with massive consequences for themselves as well as for the people they love and cherish.

A must watch!
