5.The Story:
Berlin says farewell to his third wife in the first scene of the episode. His crew then shows up to carry out a straightforward operation that will help them in a much larger stealing. Berlin presents them to Cameron, a new member, and details his plan to steal jewels valued at 44 million euros in 34 different European locations in a single night. The group needs to pretend to be an archaeological team in order to enter the city’s catacombs, and the chalice holds the key to the plan. Berlin develops feelings for the auctioneer’s wife, Camille, throughout the journey, and the crew has to keep an eye on the auctioneer’s movements to figure out when the final cargo of jewels is arriving.
6.The Good:
The series is a thrilling and entertaining watch, with plenty of action, suspense, humor, and romance. The plot is fast-paced and full of twists and turns, keeping the viewers on the edge of their seats. The characters are well-developed and have interesting backstories and motivations. The chemistry between the actors is palpable and the dialogue is witty and clever. The production value is high, with stunning cinematography, costumes, and music. The series also pays homage to Money Heist, with references and connections to the original show.
7.The Bad:
The series is not without its flaws, however. Some viewers may find the series too violent, graphic, or unrealistic, as it depicts scenes of blood, torture, murder, and explosions. Some viewers may also find the series too predictable, cliché, or formulaic, as it follows the typical tropes and conventions of heist movies and shows. Some viewers may also feel that the series is unnecessary, as it does not add much to the overall story of Money Heist, and that it is just a cash-grab or a fan-service.
8.Conclusion:
Berlin is not much more than a standard heist show, and it fails to make its title character likable or relatable. The show’s story is illogical and relies heavily on coincidences, and it endorses misogynistic behavior. While it may be entertaining for fans of the original show, it is ultimately a waste of time and it’s not worth watching.
