VOO CRIMINOSO

Phenomenally well done. Actors are beliavable, the score helps build the drams and anguish lead character feels. Being Swedish I remember this robbery well, it was quite the story in the media and kind of the end of the Yugoslavian mafia running Stockholms underworld.

WHY DOES A REVIEW HAVE TO BE 600 WORDS, EPISODE 1 WAS BETTER THAN EPISODE 2 WHICH WAS WORSE THAN EPISODE 4 BUT BETTTER THAN EPIOSDE7 WHICH IN TURN WAS SLIGHTLY BETTER THAN EPISODE 3, BUT EPISODE 5 WAS BETTER THAN EPISODE 2 AND EPISODE 8 WAS TO PLACEMENT OVER 2. WHICH EPISODE WAS BEST ACCORDING TO ME - EIGHT HUNDRED CHARACTERS...

I have always had a hard time watching Swedish productions as a Swede. This time, I felt like almost everything was well executed. Acting was mostly great, cast was up to the mark, script was of a high standard and the plot was, besides being predictable (obviously), really captivating. Just great.

I really think they managed to overcome the "problem" of choosing a side here. Who do I really want things to go well for? You ended up in some sort of middle ground that followed during the course of the series, which I was content with.

Something that I felt was a little off was the team of detectives, or whatever they are supposed to be called. They did not exude direct competence. Everyone but Leonie felt rather uninterested in the whole case. She had to come in as a savior in times of need a little too often, even when it came to things that felt relatively obvious. But maybe that is how it all went down, what do I know?

Overall, I really enjoyed the series. It was captivating and offered details, which I believe happened in reality, and which had not been heard of before. I think it is worth seeing for everyone, not just Swedes who have pre existing knowledge of the case.

This series got my heart pumping and my blood pressure so sky high I nearly soiled myself by the end of episode 6. Seriously.

I've seldom watched a more perfectly casted, acted, filmed, and written series. In many such heist dramas, the buildup to the actual event is lame and predictable. Not so in 'The Helicopter Heist', with incredibly beautiful, meaningful themes of expectation, familial obligation, duty, love, and dissappointment following the major characters all the way to their anticipated jackpot. The event itself - as well as various other points throughout the series - was filled with energy building scenes dripping with dramatic irony, drawing out the tension beyond all reasonableness, making the audience sit on the literal edge of their seats wondering when certain events would transpire.

In short, I was thoroughly entertained and satisfied by this series and I highly recommend it.

Wow, this series simply blew me away! I was hooked from the first episode. The mix of action, suspense, and the emotional depth of the characters is just incredible. What really stood out was how the story isn't just about a robbery; it dives into loyalty, desperation, and the choices people make when backed into a corner. Every twist kept me guessing, and the acting was so raw and real that I forgot I was watching a series. This is one of the best true-crime dramas I've ever seen-10/10 without a doubt!

I don't remember the last time I watched something in one breath. You won't regret spending your time on this!

As a big fan of "Moneyheist" (La Casa...) I kind of like this even more as it nots so polished.

Every star in money heist were photo-esque, stars or selected to be great cover material for magazines.

Here we have more or less normal people, behaving as people do. They were not perfect, and we got to know them as how they live and... work.

The acting from our main stars are amazing, and as a Swede I think the script and dialogue were spot on.

Scenery and locations were as it is, imperfect too. The location wasnt a polished office building, but more as a industry building - as it was in reality. Kudos to details!

Having it as a mini-serie, fantastic - if this had been a hollywood production with action and dramatized events with no back-story. No thanks.

This was simply put great!
