Berlin

I have watched all seasons of Money Heist and of course that series wasn't perfect either (thanks to Netflix), but at least there were some signs of character development, a well written story and more than just pointless cliches.

Berlin is a spin-off from Money Heist but honestly you can't convince me this isn't some kind of parody of the original series. The dialogs and the plots were probably written by some horny teenager with a porn addiction, and the acting is actually worse than in some amateur adult videos.

I am also sure that this website is full of bots because the episodes were all rated 9+ on the day this has released. In a real world this shouldn't be above 5 and even that is being generous. Don't waste your time with this, just rewatch Money Heist if you missed it.

The Casa de Papel was an excellent idea; the plot and characters were cool, but the made the same usual mistake of many series / movies : unnecessary love stories. Like literally all the characters were involved in relationships or affairs ALL the characters. What's the need? Too easy and cheap.

Now, with Berlin, is just the same.... but now the characters are too obvious, clichéd, predictable, I feel like I amWatching kind of the same characters from La casa the papel with a little twist and again: unnecessary love stories with the same old problems: we're so different, age difference, one in a relationship/unavailable , we together so we shouldn't hook up . Basically, all the same.

Stop forcing love stories into everything!! It ruins everything and work better on the charters. They are so obvious Not everything needs romance and sex to be good.

The way I was expecting before watching this series was at peak at first few episodes it got my attention but later on they only started to show the characters back stories i.e relationship not even related to heist but yeah I felt like watching some darma rather the story based on heist it should be, this time it kinda disappointed because they had already set thier standard so as we are audiance will be expecting more, so more then heist I've only seen the darma and damn they finish the heist so easily in few episodes itself the plans aren't even logical and proper also the characters are not much concentrating on the heist rather they're more upto the side quests so that should've been corrected and that's we expect to having more content related to the plans and the heist so as far as I know am not that satisfied it should have been better.

Cliché - Simping - Overreacting

Overall, the series started off promising, but I'm genuinely disappointed with where Alex is taking it - drowning in clichés and overreactions. Those mundane scenes should fade into the background, but no, Pena's signature has to be forcefully stamped on everything. Simping, simping, and more simping - it's become a parade of tired tropes. Money Heist set a bar, and this feels like a heart-wrenching downgrade. If this trend persists, it's on the fast track to becoming a Bollywood melodrama. As someone genuinely disappointed, I hoped for more than this. Kudos, Alex, for turning what could have been a riveting tale into a predictable saga.

I think the main reason so many people are disliking Berlin is because they go into the show with the notion that it will be exactly like Money Heist but with different characters. In my opinion, Berlin was a perfect showing of what it was trying to make.

And don't get me wrong, Berlin was more like a romance show with a heist in the background, and there were a few moments that left me feeling unsatisfied but all and all, it is one of the better shows (within its category) that I have seen this year

Once the show ended I was left with wanting to see another season. I truly believe that if people start watching with no expectations of how Berlin should be, then it will be an enjoyable 8 episodes.
