    It opens with a badass grrl who meets The Professor by shoving a gun in his crotch. The dialog, especially the voice-over, feels written by a teenager. It's hammy and predictable. Then they're all in a "classroom" and the The Professor explains his scheme, all the while these would-be "cream of the crop" thieves he's recruited joke around and snicker like little kids.

    It's probably okay

    It's probably okay if you're the age for it, but I like heist films with whip-crack dialog like The Sting, and a plot that keeps me guessing. Money Heist felt predictable and formulaic from the first line of dialog.

    I sort of get the hype over Money Heist but I do think it sort of suffers from being waaaaay too rated. It's a decent crime drama but, for my money, it has a really bad tendency to drag. It lasts 13 episodes for a story that realistically could have been told in 6 or 7. I noticed that season 2 has a reduced episode of count so I think I will check it out.

I just felt like it kinda reminded me of the old Netflix Marvel shows where I know they would be much improved without all the filler. One final nitpick is that occasionally it falls into deus ex machina territory which, unfortunately, is one of my pet hates.

    Despite these issues, I'd still say on the whole I enjoyed it; it has a very interesting premise and it's good enough to get it over the line. However, if I find season 2 hasn't much improved I'd say I'm extremely likely to drop it. 5 seasons of a show that is barely above average (imo) just isn't worth it for me.
