Considering we’ve locked ourselves, it’s only reasonable to line up a series that makes being trapped in close to look like fun. We all can do that right?
Okay, maybe not fun, but at the very least, exciting.
And excitement is exactly what Money Heist, Spanish language thriller about a group of thieves trapped inside the Royal Mint of Spain for the heist of the century, is.

Make no mistake, The series isn't just an average heist thriller. It kicks off with the mysterious Professor saving the life of a bank robber whose last job ended in a hail of bullets and of course a dead lover. She's not the only person the Professor's kept out of the unyielding reach of the law though; soon he's introducing her to the team he's built to carry off the greatest heist in history. Only problem? It'll take about half a year for the team to be trained and ready.


Here's where Money Heist really kicks into high gear. After choosing code names, the whole crew is referred to by international cities, the series twists immediately to the future and just like that, Tokyo, Rio, Nairobi, Helsinki, Oslo, Denver, Moscow, and Berlin. The action-packed future timeline, in which the thieves reveal that their plan was never to rob the Royal Mint, but lay siege and print billions of unmarked, untraceable bills.

The team training, coming together, and becoming a family unit at a beautiful Spanish villa under the tutelage of the Professor offer up moments much sweeter and heartfelt than any other entry into this hard boiled genre. Yes, this is a team of vicious criminals, but it's also a team of people who are fighting for a life better than the one they were given.

Money Heist is a delicate house of cards, and shifting allegiances are set to topple the whole operation.
The Spanish series proved over three seasons, this is more than just a game of cops and robbers. This is a story about how even in the most dire and difficult of situations, nothing can stop people from dreaming, and dreaming big at that point of time.
And with Season 4 now on Netflix, it is the perfect time for you to catch up on all the unexpected twists and turns, all the action-packed highs, and all the emotionally grounded lows. After all, there's a reason it's one of Netflix's most popular series till date and everyone is talking about it.
